Jake learned to ride his bike last weekend. He actually picked it up almost immediately, but at first he didn't want to ride unless I was physically in contact -- just a finger on his shoulder was enough.

Friday 4/20: His little glider -- a small bike w/ no pedals:

Sunday 4/22: A bike path nearby -- great for practicing:

Sunday 4/22: He finally decides to just ride by himself, after we made a deal -- if he rode the to playground, he could play on it.

• spring break

[sigplus] Critical error: Image gallery folder photos/2012-Spring_Break is expected to be a path relative to the image base folder specified in the back-end.

We went to Monterey (stayed in Pebble Beach) for Spring Break this year. We spent time at the aquarium (of course), but also went whale-watching and fed some beach squirrels.

Jake & Drew (and dad, Oma, and Granddaddy) went out on Monday and saw a family of Gray Whales (with a calf); we also saw lots of dolphins, otters, and sea lions. Drew & Granddaddy went out again on Friday and saw some Humpbacks breaching (not pictured).

This year's party was at the Pleasanton Valley Pool Club -- we hosted lots of friends for a ginormous pool party.
