BIKES!





The weather was some-what pleasant last week, so the kids pulled their bikes from the garage and cruised the cul-de-sac. I have a new strategy with Owen. I want him to learn his balance on just two wheels, so I have him walk the bike to the top of our driveway and then ride it down. He doesn't use the pedals, but he's starting to not be so scared if he starts to wobble. No body holds his bike, it's just him and gravity!

Allie is slowly getting comfortable using pedals. She is more daring on the scooter we got last year for Christmas. Too bad it got so stinky cold! Maybe next week will warm up a little and we can take over the neighborhood again!!!
