Bike Riding Fool

Dax learned to ride his bike on Tuesday! He was so proud of himself and mom and dad are just as excited. He still needs a little work on mastering his steering (he makes very sharp turns right before he gets to the curb and then wobbles a bit) but overall he got the hang of it quite quickly.

I tried to teach him on Sunday...

but he didn't appreciate me holding on to his shirt.

Justin borrowed a special bike from a guy at work. The bike doesn't have any pedals and teaches the kids to learn to balance themselves. Well, after only a couple of hours riding that bike he was able to get on his own and pretty much take off.

Making the turn...

taking off down the road.

He only managed to scrape his knee a couple of times, but it was nothing a kiss and band-aid couldn't fix! Now I just have to get him a sturdier bike AND get used to him begging me to go outside and watch how cool he rides.
