| Such a big girl! |
Emily, Auntie JuJu and I headed to the park and to a nice walking trail for Emily to practice riding her "bike" aka tricycle!
Let's just say, "Man oh man, has she come a LONGGGGGGGGGGGG way" since last summer when she first tried to ride a trike by herself. Last summer she had no leg strength to even push the pedals unless she was pushed from behind.

| This is serious business... |
Now that some time has passed, AND that she gets to practice riding trikes at preschool, the girl can pedal with the best of them. She only needs help steering ooccasionally and if there is any kind of incline on the path. Other than that she did FANTASTIC!!! She did quite a bit of riding and her little legs were plum tuckered out, but she made it all the way back to the car.
We then headed to another park that had swings for her to play on! Swinging is by far and above her favorite outdoor activity! Today though, she did venture onto some of the different toys at the park. She did the teeter-totter (with doggy of course), rode on some other bouncy toys and did the slide a few times, and most incredible of all was to see her climb up the rope ladders. She could have never done that before with what little strength she had. Today she just had mommy or Auntie JuJu standing behind in case of any tumbles! It was FABULOUS to witness her climbing and playing so differently than last spring and summer! WOW...what a difference a year makes!
Enjoy the pictures!
Love,
Kathy
