Bike Riding Milestones

It was another busy weekend in the life of the Wilkens family.  Jude recently got his first bike and I'm happy to report that he is able to peddle all by himself (before he would just scoot himself along on his tricycle and scrape up all of the fronts of his shoes ).   He even rode in his school Trike-a-thon and was so proud of himself.  He had a big smile on his face as he rode through the "Chug Wash" and must have gone around the "track"at least 10-15 times!  Then, low and behold Abbey asked to have us take her training wheels off this weekend and she rode her bike all by herself for the first time! 

We also threw in a soccer game and the Fiesta Flambeaux Parade while we were at it.   After all of that, we had to rest up today for another busy week..........

Tooth Fairy Visits



Abbey lost her first tooth last week and the tooth fairy visited. She left a cute note asking the tooth fairy is she was related to Santa Clause and also telling her that she would be splitting half of her money with her daddy! The tooth fairy left her $2 and a note that she was related to Santa Clause after all!

The Move to Misty Peak

The Beginning




It was a long time coming, but we moved into our new house the day before Thanksgiving and settled in quickly. We got a tree up for Christmas and the kids have enjoyed having their own rooms again.
