Look Who Can Ride Without Training Wheels?


On Tuesday Zach had his 4-year check-up at the doctor's, and afterwards he decided that since he was such a big boy now, he didn't really need training wheels on his bike anymore. That was it. His mind was made up. So when we got home (at about 5pm) Andy took off the training wheels and said, ok, let's give this a try. Zach must have known he was ready because this is how he was doing 24 hours later, with maybe 1 hour worth of practicing. He is doing great!! And if you ask him he says, "You just have to keep trying and not give up!"

Sounds to me like he's got it all figured out.

THAT-IS-AWESOME!!!!

Way to go Zach! Now, if he could just teach Cade to use his pedals.....:)

p.s. Cade loved watching Zach ride his bike. He said, "Zach's a big boy! I'm a big boy too!"
