Check out our new favorite thing!

So after searching online and doing a TON of research on bicycle seats for Aurora, I finally decided on one!
I knew right away that I didn't want a trailer and I wasn't a huge fan of the ones that hook onto the back of the bike. Particularly because my bicycle has a heavy duty cargo rack attached to it that I'd have to remove.
That left me with pretty limited options. There was one that mounts on a rail between the seat and the handlebars, but my bicycle didn't have a long enough frame. Then I found one called the iBert that I really liked. It mounted on the handlebar stem which made it perfect for my bike and it was getting amazing reviews. However, it only came in a strange green and orange color and it was pretty expensive so I had a hard time committing to it. Well, lo and behold a month later when I decided to break down and buy it... There it was on Amazon; $15 cheaper and in PINK! Decision made! Two days later the seat and a tiny helmet arrived in the mail! Unfortunately, it was raining so our first ride had to wait until the next day. 
What the heck is this... a new hat?
This is Aurora "hugging" the box. She's a little strange haha.
It was super easy to install! Looks good, right? 
Aurora was so excited to get in it! She kept pointing at my bike yelling "vroom vroom!"!
Vroom!
We had a blast riding about the neighborhood. She learned to say "Whee!" and waved at everyone. She even clapped her hands a  bunch of times. Everyone one we passed on the street got a kick out of her!
And of course we had to stop for a snack!
Mmm... fruit cup!
It looks like this bike seat with be getting a TON of use! Aurora loves it, I love it and we get tons of compliments when we're out. I cant wait to start taking some longer rides! <3

Aurora's First Corn on the Cob!

I've always loved corn on the cob and I get so excited when it starts showing up in the supermarket! Last week, they had some on sale really cheap so I couldn't resist. Aurora has a play food set and like to pretend  she's eating the corn, but she had never had it on the cob like that before. Anyway, I remembered that my little brother ate it with us almost as soon as he had teeth so I left a few rows of kernels on one and gave it to Aura to see what would happen. It took her a little while to figure out, but she loved it! 
Here's how it went...
(Pardon the bad lighting.)
What... the... heck is this?
Hmmm....
There's food on here.


Oh... I get it!




I guess she'll be eating corn on the cob with mama more often!! Saves me a lot of work, that's for sure!
