Fun bike ride

We were finally able to hook up my $10 bargain bike seat for Aden. After lots of zip ties & a couple of carabiners (safety first!), we met up with Denise, Brent & baby Jace for a nice bike ride on Saturday. Aden was so happy to be up close and right behind his daddy, he had a perma-grin the entire bike ride. On our way home, he kept talking about how he's behind daddy and that baby Jace was behind Brent. We were just cracking up.

Sunday was a bit more challenging for us. I had pretty bad allergies all day and halfway through the day, Aden started showing signs of allergies too. I don't know if it's really allergies for him or just signs of exhaustion since we've been on the go the entire weekend. After meeting the Johnsons for a late lunch, we asked Aden if he wanted to go home or go for a bike ride. Of course he picked the bike ride. We parked by OMSI and rode the Springwater Corridor trail to Sellwood, which is 3.5 miles (7 miles total). We were glad that we did the bike ride even though it was a bit cold & cloudy. It was still nice to be out and enjoying the outdoors with Aden. He didn't want to quit riding the bikes, even though he was tired from no-nap that day. He did succumb to sleep on the way home.
