Friday evening, Jed came home from work and announced we were going to Target after dinner. Of course Addie and I agreed because, um it's Target. He didn't mention that the purpose was that he had decided he needed to buy his baby girl her first bike. He picked it up off the shelf and asked Addie, "should we get this for you and take it home?" she replied with an "okay!"
wahoo a big girl bike!
She even wanted to help daddy put it together
Can you tell she was excited??
Trying it out.....
She's two and a half so the whole concept of pedaling was tricky. It'll definitely take some more practice, but she loved it. She kept repeating stuff she'd heard on Word World about learning to ride a bike. She'd say "Hands on handle bars.....check. Keep pedaling and look ahead" lol of course she really didn't DO any of those things....but it was very cute and funny.
Oh and daddy showed her how it was done. Hee hee...
If that wasn't enough fun, Saturday evening we went up to Pineview with Steve and Dawn to take the boat out and see the annual Yacht Club Boat Parade. Addie's face in this picture says it all....
She LOVED it
I mean come on, being on a boat makes all Wellers happy!
Addie giggling with Uncle Blake
Haha, a little windy up front!
Jed in his happy place
Speaking of happy place....Steve and Addie had a ball driving the boat together!
Oh, and when I say DRIVING the boat, I mean SHE drove the boat.
Seriously some of my favorite pictures of Addie and her Papa Steve. Just so dang happy.
Look how good looking my friend looks all chillin' in the moonlight on the boat.
Promise he didn't pose...I'm just that good ;)
Once it was dark out, the boat parade started. It was fun to see all of them all lit up
Not the best pictures since the light was bad. I love the one that looked like a pirate ship and one that was Titanic-esque. Addie thought the boats were so cool with all the lights on it. She had a blast!
Sunday evening, we went down to celebrate my Grandpa's 89th birthday
Love you Grandma and Grandpa!
So that wraps up our weekend. It was quite splendid if you ask me. I think more weekends should include having daddy around all day Saturday, included bagels at Old Grist Mill, a hair cut for me and a nap. I love spending time with my little family....and extended family!

It is such a great day when they learn to ride their bike. We go out all the time now. That Addie is one cute girl. I still laugh thinking about the way she was with Ross. lol. Thanks again for letting us come and eat the your yummy food :)
Oh, Addie's first bike! How fun! I love those pictures of her (and Jed) riding the new bike. And you're making me jealous with all your boating pics;). We didn't go boating once this summer.
