The kids are very busy with outdoor activities lately. Linus had his last skating lesson this week. Unfortunately Yen forgot his helmet, so he had to wear one from lost…
Skating
Well this is embarrassing! Linus is officially better at skating than I am. Look at him go! Sometimes you can’t see him because his biggest fan, Mina, gets in front…

This post is going to cover a long period! It begins back in February when still had snow and still lived in our old house. And Linus was tugging at…

Linus turned the couch into a cuckoo clock – with two cuckoos!
Biking Boston
Linus announced a few months ago that when he turned 4, he’d be old enough for pedals. Yen put them on last week and has been working with him, but…
Riding in Style
We’ve been discussing changing our biking configuration. Mina is getting tall enough that Yen can’t really lean over to power up hills. I think we’re going to make the big…
