Ellen's had a 'big bike' for a while now, but with the move and so on hasn't had the opportunity to ride as much as she'd like, so we took the girls and their bikes down to the waterfront for a ride last weekend and they had a great time. Next time I need to remember the helmet though - oh Mummy! We discovered that she's gotten a lot taller recently, or her legs have grown, as suddenly the seat needs to be at the highest point. I can see next Christmas's present being sorted already!
Olivia's legs don't quite reach the pedals to go all the way around a cycle revolution (much to her frustration!), so her tricycle still has the handle attached (what an indignity!). She can't wait to be free...the story of her life thus far I think!
We stopped for a cool treat to share from the shop over the road - they've not had one before, so Ellen savoured it, while Olivia took two sucks and decided that the swings were the place to be. It's so nice to be able to head down the waterfront again for walks and plays at the park - we did have great parks up the coast of course, and still visit our favourites when we go back up there, but for me, the waterfront feels like home.
