bike riding!

Dylan has always loved riding his bike. He started riding his tricycle when he was about 18 months old and got his first real bike at 2. It always came easy to him and he's always enjoyed it!
Last fall Dylan decided to try without training wheels. It didn't go so well and we out them back on right away. A couple weeks ago Dylan said he was ready to try again. We took them off and according to daddy they are staying off! We went to my school so we could ride in the parking lot then play on the playground. Little sister waiting patiently to go play! Isn't she the prettiest little girl! I sure think so!



And it's time to start! Honestly, Dylan didn't do very well! He was scared to fall and it took some convincing to get on and try again. As soon as Seth let go he stopped pedaling and would fall down.





We decided to try in the big field thinking if he fell it wouldn't hurt as much. That went a little better, but still not very well! We soon gave up and resorted to playing!







He liked this much more! He loves playing and this is a great playground.



Saylor also got to try out her new walking skills in her pretty sailor outfit!




Good news is, we tried again on Mother's Day and he did much better. Was a lot more confident and wasn't scared to fall! Still stopped pedaling, but he is making progress!!
