Dare Devil

 Avery is quite the dare devil on his trike, rolling around on flat ground just isn't enough for him. He has to find every little hill and roll down it, usually saying “Weeee” on the way down. He finds the slightest decline (aka hill) and will go up and down it over and over. The  first “hill” Avery found was the between our driveway and the neighbor’s driveway. It’s only about 3 feet, but he loves it. The other hill at our house is in the front yard, which is a little longer ride, maybe 5 feet, which he also loves. Most nights we can be found rolling down one hill or the other after supper.

Rolling down the "hill" in the front yard 

Sort of a big bump at the end, but he doesn't mind

 One night we were visiting a friend and had brought Avery’s trike along and he discovered a decline just outside of the garage, so he muscled up the incline and rolled down, all night long. The same friend also has a larger actual hill on the side of his house so Jon and I took Avery over to give a big hill a try. He wasn’t too sure at first but a one ride down he loved it!

 He went down a few times before we had a crash. Mid way down Avery got off balance and before I could catch him, the tike tipped over, sending Avery over the handle bars. Avery was fine after his crash, a little scared but nothing mom and dad couldn’t fix with  hugs and kisses. With our little dare devil getting more daring all the time I am glad he always wears his helmet. Maybe we should have named Avery, Av-“Weeee” instead.
