No more training wheels!!!

On Sunday we decided Harper would probably be able to ride his bike without the training wheels. We asked him and he was all for taking them off to try. He tried a couple times and was really close, but he got frusterated that he just couldn't go on his own. He wanted them back on! He threw a fit for about a half hour and then we talked him into practicing a bit more. It was only about 15 minutes later that he was doing it all by himself! He still couldn't start on his own, but he was so proud of himself. He wanted to ride around the neighborhood and show everyone!

Today we went for a couple rides and all of a sudden he was starting out on his own too. What a big boy! We are so proud of his recent accomplishment! Yay Harper!

AMAZING! Avery would never get on her bike if we took off her training wheels and Owen is just too crazy, I don't think we would dare. Harper is such a tough little guy... I am always amazed at the things he can do... four wheelers, snowmobiles, bikes... He is such a COOL kido!
