Look Mom! No Training Wheels!

On Monday, October 5, 2009 Amelia learned to ride a bike with no training wheels. We were so proud of her! We decided to try and teach her to ride her bike because her school is having a bike rodeo at the end of the month. I thought it was going to take a little while but Amelia learned within the first 20 minutes of trying. Frank was a great teacher. He had her push with her feet and steer the bike. That got her to learn to keep her balance and steer. Then she started pedaling and was off. She was so happy and proud of herself and so were we.

While Amelia was learning to ride her bike Elliott was riding his scooter. That boy is fearless. He would ride the scooter straight to a speed bump and say "I I want to jump it like a skateboard". He can't wait to start riding a skateboard and jumping things with it and neither can Frank. I am going to put all that on hold for as long as I can!!!
