Bulldozers & Bikes

If you were a 2 and a half year old little boy, then Wednesday would have been the perfect day for you. In the morning we went to the Little Builders exhibit at the Museum. In the evening we went on a bike ride.

At Little Builders, we never actually made it into the exhibit because all the opening day festivities were too fun. They had build your own snacks where Kae made a wagon that even had gummi bear passengers.After getting Kae his sugar fix we went outside to see the trucks. There was a snow plow, a cherry-picker, a bulldozer, a scraper, and some kid of work truck with a giant auger attachment. Nonna stopped by to see the festivities too and posed with Kaleb and the snow plow.
The place was pretty crowded and there were lines to sit in the trucks but Kae was really good about waiting and he got a chance to sit in each one of the trucks.
Here is my favorite picture from the day with the big trucks. Kae was showing me how big he is standing next to the bulldozer's wheel.When we got home from all the big truck fun Kae took a great nap. You would be amazed how exhausting it can be to see trucks.

Wednesday evening was the first night of the Wednesday evening rides in the city. They had about 24 bikers turn out. It was a lot of fun. Andrew and I rode our cruisers since it isn't a speed ride and the boys both rode in the trailer. We winded through the streets in old town.
I'm not sure how long the whole ride is but we stopped after about 40 minutes so the boys could play at the park. They are great bike passengers but they have a limit. We usually take the bike to the pool or the park so they pretty much expect fun after a ride.

  2. I'm so excited to see them in the trailer. Soon they'll be big enough for their own bikes!
