Bikes, Bikes, Bikes!

Our kids LOOOVE to ride bikes and do so just about every afternoon!  Our street is not a through street, and our neighbors are AWESOME at looking out for the kids, so it's pretty safe.  I should take a moment and say that we really do have the most wonderful neighbors.  When they see our "kids at play" sign out in the street, they drive so slowly and carefully, looking to make sure they can see all three of the kids!  We are so thankful for that.  Our next door neighbor is super amazing and even built our kids a bike ramp and puts out cones for them to go around...and he rides his bike with them!  I know, best neighbor ever!

Anyway, it's pretty fun to watch them all out there having fun together for a good hour or so almost every afternoon.
Today Seth learned to ride a two-wheeler.  It was really fun.  He's been wanting to so badly and he was able to get it today and was SO proud!  We knew he had the balance down because he's been riding a balance bike and doing great, but putting the balance, pedaling and steering all together is a lot.  He got it, though, and over the course of the afternoon got so much more stable and confident.  He really didn't want to come in when it was time to be done riding bikes!

  1. Way to go Seth! That's awesome. We live on a dead end too so I am looking forward to future bike riding days.
