New Bike For Leilani

Leilani was very lucky to get a new bike for her birthday! And even luckier to get it the night before! We all went down to the bike shop together to pick one out. It was very exciting and lots of fun trying out all the bikes in the shop.

We decided to go with the smaller of the two we picked out - mainly so Lani can build her confidence up and feel comfortable on it and also so Emily can learn to ride it too. Next summer we will probably get a bigger one so they each have one.


As soon as we got home the kids got ready for bed and then around and around they went! This empty room is really quite handy!



Leilani loved it. Emily got a new basket for Leilani's old three wheeler bike, so she was very happy to put her cats in there!



By the end of the night Leilani was getting very good on the bike (in the limited space she had to ride it) and was even doing some 'no hands tricks!' We'll have those trainers off in no time!

Because everyday is different and we can't remember them all, I thought I had better start writing them down. Welcome to life in the Challis home - where everyday is different!
