The other day, the two older boys wanted to play outside so while Ty was napping, I stole an hour or so to go out and play with them in the backyard. We first went for a walk and admired the purple wild flowers that blossomed.
Bentley hung out with Edna…until he found a bone in the woods!
Then, Imanuel wanted to ride his trike. He LOVES riding his trike. Micah has a mini-bike with training wheels that my parents also bought for them, but he still hasn’t quite gotten the hang of it yet. So, I thought, maybe I could just pull him around in a sled. I was getting so tired that I just couldn’t pull him anymore.
Then, Imanuel thought of the brilliant idea of pulling him on the sled with his trike!
Yeah, right. He was only able to get Micah to move for just a few inches and that was on an incline! I ended up having to push them. That’s when we knew what we had to do. We realized that the only way we could pull Micah was to use something really tough…Ford tough.
Success! (Well, sort of. They still did have some trouble going uphill.)
Last month, for Micah’s 2nd birthday, Thanksgiving, Ty’s birth present, Christmas 2009, and Manu’s 4th birthday, we bought the boys a Ford Harley Davidson Edition Power-Wheels Truck. :]
They used their truck to help with some yard work.
Then it was time to go inside. Manu parked the car in our garage where only Fords are allowed.
So, here’s to many years of good use on this car…because we decided this is only car they’ll be getting from us! 
HILARIOUS! Poor Bentley. He looked like he knew something was wrong. Trying to stand in front of the car and barking at you: “aren’t you going to STOP this madness? Someone might get hurt…” OR he was just being Bentley. I like to give him some credit. =) Miss youzzle.
jennizle-ope, when we go down, I think we’re gonna drive the whole fam. Coo?@jensa07 –
Aww… I second Jen’s comment on Bentley. Definitely gave you a look of desperation there. 😀 I remember powerwheels being the most coveted toy for years. They look so cute and happy riding in there. 🙂
Manu is the youngest driver yet!! Did he hit anything/anyone?!
@rAmOsEs – PLEASE?! Does that include the dog? 😉 Just kidding. (But if you weren’t kidding, that’s ok too!) You guys can totally stay w me, or at a hotel if that’s more comfortable, or at someone else’s place. I’ve been praying about this! =)
This. Is. Great. Manu is so cute driving that truck around with little brother Micah waving from the passenger seat. I love this. 🙂
soooo cooolllll!!! ehemm….does Manu have the license to drive? I so envy the mini Ford truck, it’ll cost us a fortune to get something like over here 🙂 But then again, the Bible says, “Thou shalt NOT covet” so I am trying my best not to WANT your mini FORD truck (for my boys)…HAHAHAHA!
By the way Judy, don’t you think it’s TIME to change your profile picture? hehehehe…
wow this is so cool! I love the video where Micah is being pulled in the sled… LOL. And your story on the post is so funny too… nice intro!Congrats to the boys on the new truck.
Pow-Pow-Powerwheels,Pow-Pow-Powerwheels,POWERWHEELS!Man that looked just like the cool commercials I used to break the tenth commandment over…Speaking of which, Judy always wanted a Hello Kitty powerwheels jeep… but she had to settle for a pink Barbie bike with training wheels and a tricked out red metal tricycle seat. 🙂
@kimcheemeow – @threemendez – You guys are welcome to bring your kids any time so they can play on the truck together!!@jpnamm – Thanks for bringing back such traumatizing experiences! Was that the same bike that Dad spray painted silver and gave to Justin?? HAHA!
@rAmOsEs – Haha! Yup it was!!!
