Rolling thunder!


Lexi has officially hit the streets on her new ride, a tricked out tricycle with special extra loud exhaust system (AKA Dad making "vrooom!" sounds). Her favorite part about the trike so far seems to be her snazzy new bike helmet. She loves the helmet, and even demands to have it on when playing in the house sometimes. Unfortunately the first ride around the neighborhood was interrupted by a sudden downpour, so she had to cross the finish line being carried by mommy and chased by daddy carrying her trike. She's confident that next time she'll make it all the way around the neighborhood loop. She was almost all the way around the first time and going strong when the rain hit, and she was even ringing her bell like a champ.


Here is video of Lexi almost getting her first roadkill. Unfortunately it is taken sideways, so you'll either have to turn your monitor sideways, or turn your head sideways.

Whoa! Lexi didn't seem to notice that the neighborhood cat was almost creamed by her crazy driver dad.

She needs a horn on that thing to alert the poor cat. I was impressed with her biking skills, though. Also what's with the buzz cut?

She's doesn't need a horn, she's got a bell. It's not her fault if the cat is too dumb to head the warnings. :-)

The buzzcut was badly needed. The hair was getting long and horrible so I had to shave it all off one morning before work.
