Between soccer and our big butterfly release this morning it's been quite the day. But the
most exciting part of the day came this afternoon when we tried out Owen's new big boy
bike for the first time. He's been riding a balance bike and does great with it. Since he had
the balance part down, we figured why not try a two wheeler with pedals and see how he
does. The answer....he did GREAT!!
This video was maybe only his 2nd pass down the sidewalk. He caught on so quickly!
Ryan would get him started and then once he started pedaling, he was golden. He knew
how to balance himself, so if he did get a little out of control he would take his feet off the
pedals, regain his balance, put his feet back on and continue. By the end he was even
able to stop himself using the brakes.
He still has a little trouble getting himself started, but I have a feeling after a little more
practice (aka Daddy chasing him down the sidewalk) he'll be a pro.
