I started the day by convincing Bennett to join me and some other MoMs and their twins at Chevy's for lunch. I enticed him by saying we could stop at Sears to look for a storage shed. We ordered a shed and found a steal of a deal on a pink beach cruiser. This is my first bike that doesn't happen to be a hand-me-down and I feel a bit like Phoebe from "Friends." Now we can all go for rides together. As I loaded the babies in the car, Ben started breaking down a cardboard box to place under the bike to protect the car. And that's when he cut his finger with the knife. We thought for a second he might need stitches, but we bandaged it up and he loaded the bike on the car while I attempted to maintain some sort of calm with Josie and Noah who had now been inside a car that wasn't moving for almost a half hour.
Needless to say, we didn't make it to Chevy's. But after a nap and lunch, Josie and Noah were piled into the bike trailer and I got to break in my new bike. We learned that the littles seem to fall asleep better in the trailer than in the car or stroller and they remained cozied up for sometime after the ride ended.
Later that night, project build an in-law began with Bennett trying out his new hammer and breaking up some concrete in the backyard. Noah found that hilarious!
Still can't get over how adorable he is when he laughs!!
