tonight we thought we would take mag's and billy out side to ride their bikes. this is the first time we have let billy ride his trike out in the front with maggie. well, his trike is actually maggie's old tricycle from when she was his age. he loves it, even though it is pick and purple. i guess we know what he will be getting from santa this year. anyway, mag's was doing her usual, she keeps to the rules of her riding. she is allowed to ride on the sidewalk only and she can go back and forth between the two neighbors on either side of us. she loves to go as fast as she can and then turn real fast around in their driveways. she was making her way in front of our house when all of a sudden one of her training wheels flew off and of course she flew off the bike along with it. no tears though. so her daddy and i talked her into taking the training wheels off her bike to she if she could try to ride without them.
we spent a good hour with her and she wasn't seeming to catch on.billy would just follow right along with her.
oh, he also loved wearing her princess helmet.
so on maggie's last of many falls she was sitting there on the ground with her bike wrapped around her legs, almost defeated, i saw joe's eyes get so big and he nodded his head toward maggie. as i looked down i saw what he was looking at. maggie was still sitting on the ground with her arms propping her up and under her right hand was a dead, smashed flat as a pancake, frog!! yes, you don't need to reread that, i said FROG!!! we both started laughing and mag's was just looking at us. not even moving. then joe told her to look under her hand. she did and then throw the bike off of her and started to scream, disgusting!! gross!! i have not seen that girl move that fast ever!! next thing we know, here comes billy on his trike to see what was going on. he walked up to the frog and bent over to get a closer look and i mean without hesitation, he picked up that frog and put it under his seat of his bike on rode off!! i don't think i have laughed so hard in a long time!
here's the proof!!
gotta love those boys!!!

this was great!! i can just picture billy sticking that frog in his hiding place. if ever i can't find something, i check the seat compartment on the "dora car". 8 times out of 10, thats where it is. :)
that is hilarious...if you had had the video camera! miss you....
Christi,
What will Billy do next? I know Maggie must have been really grossed out , I know I would have been. A smushed frog- Yuk!
Quite a treasure for Billy, wasn't it?

Christi,
That is really weird! We were at the same places that day. The pictures of the lifesaving station at the Oregon Inlet are posted on their website also, and the Bodie Island Lighthouse - too weird.

mollys hand is still gross looking, but i think its getting better. thanks for asking! poor thing--she keeps wanting us to kiss it, which is a no no, because then we could get it.
