Bicycle Season

We took Elizabeth's hand-me-down bicycle out of the basement the other day - we dusted it off, adjusted the handle bars, training wheels and seat and got ready for a season of riding.  But a funny thing happened over the winter - Elizabeth grew.  We're not sure how much, but it was enough to make her bicycle too small.  She rode it around the driveway for a while and in the street for a little bit, but she seemed pretty uncomfortable.  Which means, we're going to need to get her a new bike.  That's good news for Emily, who will get a few years out of this bike, but bad news for Lee and I who have to take Elizabeth bike shopping - she's pickier than her mother (if anyone can believe that), so I'm sure that the process will be anything but easy.
Yes, we are well aware that she's not wearing a helmet - she grew out of that too!
