A beautiful Saturday afternoon beckoned us to the Loveland Bike Trail. It's a paved trail that goes through a historic part of town and then on for about 40 miles.....we didn't do the whole thing (obviously) Jerusha had become quite confident at riding her bike. She's even perfected her "wave while riding" technique. She was realizing that though she was concerned for her safety, she also wished to show camaraderie to the other bicyclists she came across. "How do I wave and not fall off?" she asked. So she thought about it and the next time we went for a ride she had it. Keeping her hand on the handle bars, she wiggles her fingers. She'd be more than happy to show you how, she gives tutorials on the Bike Trail to anyone who asks.Naomi thus far has been a pretty content baby. I know it's not really fair to compare them, but Roo was quite motivated as a baby and Naomi has been happy to lay there and smile at you.....until this week. Something happened to that little girl, she saw something, she wanted it so she decided to go for it. And now that she realizes that crawling is a viable option there is no more sitting around for that girl! She is showing us a tenacious side of herself and we are loving it! What a joy to watch little girls grow!

Jerusha,
You can also give folks a "thumbs up" if you just roll your hand on it's side so that your thumb is up (while still on the handle). I also think Grandpa Stobbe uses your technique when driving his car.
