Saturday I sent Daniel off with the girls so I could do some major toy tossing.  We had more then our house could hold and way more then our children could take care of.  With Ben crawling, and both Christmas and Katie's Birthday coming up, we had reached critical mass!  I had told Dan to call me when he headed home so I didn't get caught in the act.  He previously put locks on the toy cabinet.  I put little and multi piece toys in there and locked them (insert evil laugh here----wahaha!!!).  I gave each child one basket of toys to keep out.  ! If they can be responsible for those, they can trade for others as I approve them.  Anyway, 2/3 or the way through Dan called and I went into panic mode!  Turns out he just wanted to take me shopping for a bike.  I'm still stressing and I don't quite get what he is saying because we have looked at bikes since last Christmas.  It was supposed to be my Christmas present in 2007 and latter we spent my Birthday "shopping" for a bike.  I was so surprised when I ended up with a bike, helmet, basket, bell, and even some padded bike shorts and a speedometer!!!!   I have ridden it everyday since then.  I rode it around the elementary school on the way home from the store.  I rode it to dinner on Sunday with the in laws, and again this morning to ride with Ann on her own bike to School this morning.  Though Anna with her training wheels could have walked faster!  So, we need to do that everyday till she gets better!  Anyhow, I'm totally in love with my Diamondback beach cruiser!  Even if it is gold and not green!
