this is how we've been spending our saturdays lately--and afternoons and evenings when we can. if the weather's nice and we have the time, we bike to the grocery store, the park, the library. or just explore the neighborhood. it's a bit of a parade, yes, but we have so much fun doing it.
sadly, we had a casualty last weekend. totally my fault. long (clumsy) story short--the front fork of asher's balance bike split in half. waaaaah. sadness. a moment of silence for the best $12 i ever spent. (it was a clearance item at target a few years ago.) the good news is we were able to source a piece of birch plywood--an exact match to the original material--at home depot last night and the engineer is confident the bike will be as good as new very soon. the plywood cost about $16, so i guess the bike will now be the best $28 i ever spent.
