Ahhh summer!

Nothing  says summer like Watermelon!  Gotta eat it outside, too.

After dinner tonight, the bike brigade hit the cul de sac.  Daphne is much more game than Amelia was at age 2, to scoot around in a bike using her feet.  She’s a bit more “boy” and brave, too.  Tonight all the kids took turns flying down the hill on the big wheel, to go over the ramp.  Cutest kid award goes to Daphne.

See, she really got up some speed!

Amelia totally posed for this one.  Bottom of the hill, next to the ramps.

We live next door to two boys, ages 3 and just-about 5, and they are much more self-destructive than A & D.  They’ve both been hurling themselves down the hill to the ramps or just ramming the curb for a year.  Amelia got up the guts today to give it a try (we figured for the attention the boys get for doing it…).  Click here to see a video of Amelia taking a turn, and actually making it over the ramp! : Evil Knievel
