Milestone

Aidan has reached another milestone. He is now officially riding his bike without training wheels. We had taken them off at the start of summer but he didn't do so great. We decided to wait a bit. He was very scared and everytime we asked to take them off he refused so I didn't want to push it. His training wheels were worn right down to tiny rims and I noticed the other day they weren't even touching the ground. So Steve took them off today and Aidan had no problem hopping on and taking off as though he had been doing it for ages. I am glad we waited until he was very ready and now Cassi wants to try too.....but I don't think she is quite ready.
Sorry, no pictures of him riding, maybe next time.

Way to go Aidan!!! It took Maddy a long time to figure that one out. In fact this is the first summer that she's riding very well on her own. She missed a summmer due to the broken leg and last summer we took them off, and she pretty much refused to even look at her bike all summer. I think a new bike this summer motivated her.
