I don't want you to be alarmed.
I promise we are very careful, loving parents who would never let anything bad happen to your precious grandchildren....namely a little one who is going to give his mama and dad a run for their money over the next 18+ years!
After picking Ty up from daycare last week, he seemed unusually excited about a 'feeler' (his way of saying 4-wheeler) that was in Jamie's garage (his daycare provider).
Well, the little stinker worked his magic and over the next couple of hours had his dad and I convinced that she was actually looking to sell the kid sized, gas powered, 4 wheeler.
Turns out, the four year old was right...and we ended up buying it.
I still don't know how I feel about all of this, but I do know that there is a trip to Fargo very SOON in our future to go helmet shopping!
I am going to let the photos do (most) of the talking....{sigh}, I am beyond worried about the future with my littlest one....
I'll start you off with our two oldest, much more cautious children....

No funny business from them, just some learning, smiles, and nice, slow driving.

I should have known that this wouldn't be the case with this kid...

For this next series, I am going to let the photos do all of the talking...they were literally snapped over the course of 2 seconds.
This is what happens when you let your lil' daredevil four year old ride his 'feeler'.








Oof....
And this is what happens when dad finally gets ahold of you and gives you a HUGE talking to (ahem...lecture!) about driving TOO FAST!

Needless to say, the rest of the night it was all rides with daddy.

Travis has since turned the speed all the way down (so it doesn't kick up dust no matter how hard you hold the throttle down).
It is a lot safer but I don't think I will rest easy again until we have some head protection at the very least...or maybe just a padded room where my little man could live until he is passed the 'daredevil' phase...we shouldn't need it for more than 15 years!?!
