Biking

Biking has become a favorite past time of my children.
Quinton got an awesome bike from Nana and Papa for his birthday back in March and his siblings longed for their own all summer long. We have been blessed in funny ways with amazing 12 inch bikes for Rex and Myla (both from goodwill that people have graciously given us). A couple dollars are they are happy as clams to join their brother in his biking excursions.
We just received Rex' bike a few days before these pictures so we had not bought him a helmet yet (we have one now). Rex tends to be a distracted biker. He likes it, but is very interested in what's going on around him.

Myla is a natural at biking. She is so motivated and peddles as hard as her little legs can go to keep up with Quinton on his 16 inch bike. It's amazing how much faster Quinn can go with a little bigger wheel.

I love these next few pictures and how the entire time Quinn has a smile on his face. (blogger is being funny with my pictures today.)

On his own.
My turn to help him out.
Dan showing off one of the marvelous bugs they caught after biking.
Rex always picks flowers for me. He will stop and grab any dandelion, flowers from the park, even people's yards. I have to catch him before he takes other people's flowers. It is so precious. Always unprompted, always for me! I love this boy.

The Bug Hunter's in action.... again.
Quinton has really taken off this summer with his bike. We attempted 2 wheels for a few minutes. He did alright but got tired and frustrated. It might need to be a one on one event. I think he could catch on quickly!
We are loving their bikes. So thankful for the wonderful ways that we received bikes for Rex and Myla. So blessed!
