How can I say no

Josh had been talking about getting Jake a 4-wheeler or a dirt bike. However, part of me thought and maybe hoped that he was talking about in the future, far far in the future.. like 16 years from now... Uncle Kyle came by on friday and before I knew it we were the proud owners of a mini 4-wheeler. My first thought was no way am I letting my kid drive a dangerous, unnecessary, did I mention dangerous machine. As the day went on though....


Trying to convince Mom


Driving very carefully to make sure Mom sees us being very good. 


And then we get a little silly, and forget that we are trying to appease Mom and not impress her by "Look Ma no hands."


And in the end I concede because who in their right mind can say no to a face as priceless as this one! 


sigh... They know exactly how to melt my heart. I'm in for a long road of ganging up on in the years to come I think... 

p.s. Yes Grandmas we need to get him a helmet. Don't think i haven't been telling them that since we got it!
