On the way to school this morning, Andrew asked if he could learn how to ride his bike without training wheels when we got home. We've been waiting for a good day to do it so it was perfect timing. I was a little worried that he would give up if he couldn't do it right away and Matt was worried that if he fell and got a little scratched that he might be too nervous to try again. We both gave him our pep talks to try to convince him he can do it and then headed out. He hopped on, and after Matt explained balance, he literally got it on his first try. Matt pushed him and let go and Andrew kept going. Crazy. After he got a little more comfortable we headed to a park so he could have more room to work on starting on his own and turning, etc. He's officially a two wheeling machine. It was a pretty exciting day.
To make sure Mason's life rocked too, we brought Andrew's scooter for him to try out for the first time. It's not that he couldn't do it before, he just never seemed to want to. We figured by making it a big deal, he might be more into it. Our plan totally worked. He loved it!
