New Trike

 After seeing a large number of parents pushing their kids around in a trike I decided I wanted one for Calleigh. 
We found one on Amazon that wasn't too much money and ordered it. It arrived the next day and we were a little disappointed to find that It had already been assembled then obviously sent back for some reason and resold to us. 
Nevertheless we set Calleigh to work on putting it together. 




Eventually Daddy had to get involved as Calleigh refused to read the instructions. Once it was built I was eager to take Calleigh out it in. Unfortunately it snowed a lot that week and we were not able to get out anywhere.

Finally with a bit of nicer warmer weather this week, it had it's maiden voyage to the park.



Calleigh enjoyed it and spent the whole journey shouting away and giggling to herself. I on the other hand found it difficult to steer and weaved left to right trying to keep it off the road. My arms were killing me by the time we got back home.
Maybe next time Daddy should push.
