Trailhead Baby & cousins in the "toddler limo"


I went on a long "walk" today with my cousins in the quad stroller.  My mom calls it the "toddler limo."  As you can see, my little brother was not pleased with his seat and caused a fuss.  After the walk, he demanded mom's attention, so I sneaked off to my crib/office to start on the newest Superbadge: Lightning Experience Reports & Dashboards Specialist.
