Reenacting the Sound of Music

Alexa has been two wheeling it everywhere she can.  Every single day that we go to the bus stop to pick up Emma, she insists on riding her bike there and back.  Every chance she gets, she pops on her helmet and scoots on her bike.  So we finally decided to get a bike trailer so that Arturo could take all the girls out on more extended bike rides instead of just around the neighborhood.

That was 3 weeks ago.  And since then, he has been out with all the girls every single weekend - biking all around.  He and the girls have discovered new playgrounds in our neighborhood and have worked on their endurance as the rides have gotten longer. 

This past Sunday when it was 70 and sunny, all 5 of us put on our helmets (Tessa LOVES her helmet!) got on our bikes, and rode the 2 miles down to the local ice cream shop.  We all got cones (except for Tessa, who got to have as much as she wanted of the four flavors) and then rode back home.  Heaven!

Here are pictures from our first test ride with Tessa a few weeks back.
