sunday in the park

Enjoying a "gagi" (galleta - the word for cookie, but she uses it for anything crunchy - sweet or savory).

It was a quiet weekend around here, so we took advantage of the nice weather and hit Freedom Park for a little picnic and to test out the bikes. Emilia really hadn't gone for a proper ride on her new bike seat so it seemed like the perfect opportunity. I was really nervous about having her on the back of my bike, but she LOVED it. She talked the whole time, pointing out the "da"s or "woo"s (dogs), "cuac cuac"s (ducks), and "bebe"s (babies - all of whom, according to her, are always sleeping). The best was having her reach up and pat me on the back saying "Mama, Mama, Papa" and, eventually, trying to tickle my back. Best day ever.
Sharing a gagi with Papa.


Trying to convince her to keep her helmet on. It's a little big, so it kind of droops into her line of vision, but the 1 year old helmet was too small. She eventually cooperated, but wasn't happy. I guess she wants to feel the wind in her hair?

Ready to ride.
The ride home in the car - sans pants, shoes and socks. She was awake for approximately 2 minutes before she fell asleep.
