Bike Day




Madison's preschool did a "bike day" yesterday! This was sort of like a jog-a-thon, in that the kids were able to get sponsored for their number of laps completed. All of the proceeds were being sent to St. Jude's Children's Hospital, which I thought was soooo cool. Alex and I have a big soft spot in our hearts for St. Jude's Children Hospital, so we were elated when we found out Madison's preschool was holding this event!

Madison had so much fun riding her bike at school. She also loved that she was wearing her helmet. We hadn't bought her a helmet yet because we hadn't graduated her to a "big girl" bike yet, but in order to participate in this bike day at her school she had to have a helmet, so we went out and of course found a princess one and that was the first day she had been able to wear it.

I felt a little silly because all of the other kids at Madison's school had "big kid" bikes, but Madison didn't seem to mind. We have been saving getting her a big girl bike for her 4th birthday, but we'll see...maybe we'll cave in and get her one a little earlier since her birthday is still three months away and the days are perfect for riding a bike.
