Today as N was trying to get his started (before he even got the helmet on) he somehow got twisted around and busted his nose, so he had a bloody nose. Don't think we have had one of those yet in this house. Won't be the last, I'm sure, but I think it was the first. He screamed for awhile, then I realized he was just screaming/crying "outside!!!!" because everyone else was still outside. And aren't they so cute with those helmets on?
Z has been doing wonderfully as well. We are working on him to learn to ride without training wheels this summer. We took his small bike that he started riding when he was 3 and took the training wheels off and have started having him try to balance on it. Today he did great! He jumped on and coasted down the driveway on his own. Nate took the pedals off to help as well...we'll see. He will practice a few times, but then he is done. He has been riding his bike with training wheels up and down our street though, and has gotten so much better. Since we're on a cul-de-sac, he can just ride down and around the circle and back. He goes at lightning speed. :) He is still cautious in a few places, but is doing so well. Was so proud of my big boy as he came back down the street, looked over both shoulders, shouted "NO CARS!" and then rode across the street back to our driveway....all with no prompting. Amazing how fast he has grown up.
Here Nate is showing Z how to balance :)
