Go, Grace, Go!

Last weekend we decided it was high time to teach Grace how to ride her little car (or whatever you call these things). We first purchased this car in order to help Grace learn to walk. She used to lean on the handle for support and push this little car up and down the hallway. Later, we taught Grace that if you "put your feet up" Mommy and Daddy can bend over and push you around by the handle. Obviously, this killed our backs and, although, Grace loved the ride (and still does), we knew that we couldn't keep this up for much longer. Sooo...time for lessons. And who better to teach the art of driving than dear old Dad.

Here's Grace going for the car the old-fashioned way while Dad looks on...
















Getting ready to mount:
















So far so good...















That's the way, Grace. The feet look good, but staring at the sunglasses while driving is a hazard (no doubt she gets her lack of concentration while driving from Mommy):
















And back to her old ways...
















Good first lesson but lots of work ahead. Not to worry, though. It won't be long before Grace is on the sidewalk Flinstone-ing it along with the other kids.
