Look out Lance!

The day has finally arrived. Mom got the bike trailer from Aunt Jenni and Uncle John's shed. Then Uncle John brought the part that Mom didn't get the first time. Then Dad figured out how to hook the bike trailer to Mom's bike. Then Dad bought a bike. Then Dad went back to the store to buy me a bike helmet and a tire pump. Then Dad pumped up Mom's bike tires. And then, FINALLY, we went for our first family bike ride.

(But Mom and Dad forgot to take pictures last night so these are actually pictures from our second ride, tonight.)

Here's Mom getting me all situated. So that I'd be well entertained as well as well hydrated, she gave me a stuffed animal, a pacifier, my cell phone, a sippy cup of milk and a sippy cup of juice-water. It all worked pretty well and we were able to go for a 25-minute bike ride. Then Mom and Dad decided to quit while they were ahead. (Which means quit before I blew a gasket.)



Here I am, just moments before I might have blown a gasket if they'd kept going.


The helmet isn't my favorite thing but I understand it's a safety precaution we must take.


Happy trails!
