First Real Bike!!

Mia has quickly outgrown her tricycle and begun asking for a bike for her birthday! That and a pony... Yikes! So Grammy & Papa were very generous this past weekend and bought Mia her very own flamed hot rod bike!! Daddy was beyond pleased when she didn't pick out the flowered pink version. It was so cute at the store when the sales woman told Mia that this bike was too big for her, and tried to stear her towards a midget size feminine bicycle. Mia promptly ignored her, hopped on this bike and proceeded to ride circles around the other bikes! That's our girl. We figure the training wheels come off by fall, and by next winter she's on her first dirt bike! Note that Mary Bear got to join in on the inaugural bike ride... Mia can't go anywhere without her!

Look Ma, No Hands!!

Of course Daddy had to teach the midget to ride with no hands! Mommy loves that move, especially without a helmet... A few good falls, maybe some stitches, and she learns not to do that again! Ooooooh.
