I'm a Big Kid Now!

So the other night Dylan decided he wanted to take off the training wheels on his bike. Dylan being.... well Dylan.... we thought we would wait for him to really want to do this otherwise he would just whine and complain. So anyway, he decided he was big enough and off the training wheels came. We spent a couple of hours playing in the front yard and attempting to get this whole two wheeler thing down.


This is how it went.....


He tired....

And tried some more...


Viola! Success.... sort of.

He could ride short distances without falling over. But hey, it was his first day trying.


After a few crashes he gave up. (His sister would come inside bruised and bloody from trying so hard ) Dylan and Haley are VERY different little personalities. I was happy he was even willing to try. We had SOME success so we celebrated with popsicles.

Do ya like the dirty shirt and no pants look? Yeah.... that's how we roll! Livin the high life baby!

For the Grand Finale.... we played with the neighbors big 'ol dog. (Did you notice Haley wasn't around? She got fed up cheering Dylan on and left us. Some cheerleader she turned out to be!)

Yea for Dylan!! At least he tried right -- next time he will do better :)

Love the no pants looks and dirty shirt. Now all you need is some large appliances in your yard and you will be white trash :P (Please tell me you know I am kidding!!!!)

He will get it soon! That kid is determined! Soon, he will be riding with the rest of our little clan.

I love the picture of Avery and the dog! Whose dog is that?

Way to go Dylan!

He is very ambitious...when he wants to be, right?
