Weekending

This past weekend Dan and I took Kippy on his first real bike ride. We got a baby bike seat for Dan's birthday and hooked it up to his bike. We finally had an opportunity to try it out on Saturday.

First family bike ride!

We decided to walk our bikes over to the promenade along the water. I was too scared to have us ride on the streets with Kip. Kippy wasn't too fond of the new seat. He wanted to lean forward which made the straps rub but eventually once we got going he seemed fine...at least from what I could tell as I rode behind Dan.

We rode all the way to the Verazzano Bridge and then stopped for a little break when Kip started crying.

He much preferred to just practice walking.

He then fussed most of the ride back and I ended up carrying him the rest of the way once we got back on the streets.

Overall, it was fun and I think he'll warm-up to it after a few more rides. Later that afternoon we stopped by our friend's block party. They just moved to the neighborhood and we are glad they are just a few blocks away!

Sunday was a long day at church. Both Dan and I were serving for the Fall kick-off so we were there from 8:30 am - 3:00 pm. Kip was a trooper despite terrible naps and we somehow still managed to go grocery shopping as well!!

This week has been pretty miserably glum. We honestly haven't seen the sun in a week. Just overcast, rainy, humid, and fluctuating temperatures. What a way to end summer.
