Gabby Rides Bike for First Time!


This goes down in the baby book... 3 years and 8 months Gabby rode her bike without training wheels. I can't take any credit for this because Travis is the one that made this happen so I need to pat him on the back too. He taught her the German way, which is not to use a bike with training wheels but to use a push bike. That way, kids learn how to balance and just put their feet down when they want to stop. Makes sense and has worked for us. The video of this is hilarious... she rides the first time on the schoo, track with no problem then at the end screams, "I don't like it!" Of course the next day she asks when we can go back out and ride again.

Now we (by 'we' I mean Travis) need to teach her how to use the hand brake.

Check out her new bike too!

Ihlenfeldt Genes Are Strong...


I was looking at pictures from our WA State trip and came across this one of Gabriella and her Grammy (top picture)... You can really tell they're related, especially in the eyes...

I'm kicking myself for not getting pictures with papa!

The last week has been a whirlwind... Toby is here from Dubai for some interviews and Travis's parents decided to come-up at the last minute. We've been having a blast and I'm so happy that summer break is just a couple of months away... it will be hard to say goodbye to everyone!

There were TONS of Peacocks!

The Tebo family had a great time today... we took advantage of the sun and no rain and took a drive to Sequim. We decided to go to the Olympic Game Park. It was okay. I'm never a big fan of seeing animals in cages but we had some good laughs. Travis and I were quite happy about how awesome the girls were... especially with all the driving. No crying at all!

Happy St. Paddy's Day!



Travis and Gabriella are in back in Washington! I'm so happy! 
I spent the night at Beth's house last night and met all of her friends (who are awesome) but I couldn't sleep that night because I was so excited to pick-up my family from the airport the next morning. I felt like a kid on Christmas night. Everything worked out like clock-work. We were even able to celebrate St. Paddy's day with Tahnee and Emerson on Bainbridge Island for dinner. Gabby's cousin, Emerson, is an Irish dancer and she was performing. We had a lovely dinner and it was special to see my niece and her special talent. :)
