Pimp My Ride in Red, White & Blue






Independence Day was a blast! We had a day full of that typical great American fun filled with neighborhood BBQs, games, kids' parade, fireworks and hanging out with friends. It was an especially nice time with all the military families and remembering why this day is a real celebration! In true "Pimp My Ride" fashion, we decorated the boys' wagon and stroller with streamers, balloons, flags, stars & stripes! They were a hit in the parade! Zane finally decided he wanted to participate in the Bounce House! He actually loved it and we had a hard time getting him to come out! He also loved watching the multitude of bikes, trikes, scooters & the various other rides with wheels. We've tried desperately to get Zane to pedal his tricycle for quite some time now and I was reminded that Zane learns best by watching other children. Cruz's first 4th of July left him in awe of the pretty colors in the sky and the new faces and sounds he got to experience. He's such a sponge these days, soaking in his environment. He was all smiles most of the time... minus napping and feedings!
