New (to Lauren) bike!

Mommy scored a used Strider balance bike for Lauren this week.  The price was right and who could pass up an Oregon State colored bike!?  And yes, it doesn't have pedals.  They are all the rage.  Everyone swears by them.  Lauren fell in love with a playgroup friend's bike last summer so I've been looking for one ever since.  Supposidely they go straight from one of these to a big girl bike with NO training wheels!
 The driveway has just enough slope too.  And our little scaredy cat is actually not so scared of the idea of this bike!  (She's plays the scaredy cat role more to get attention than anything else!) She's catching on rather quick.
 The second time down we put on our serious face!
 Feet up even!!
We'll see how long this lasts until she claims to need a bike girl bike.  And note the helmet.  I was looking for one that didn't have characters on it....but she immediately found a Lalaloopsy helmet to my dismay.  However it was the only one that TRUELY fit properly, so we went with it!
