Look, Ma- No Training Wheels!!!

So, today Abby said that she wanted to ride her bike with only two wheels; so we gave it a try and she got it right away! She did so great- she rode up and down the street several times; I got really tired trying to stay with her in case she fell over. By the end, the only thing she needed help with was getting started. Lucas, as you might know, still had training wheels on his bike, but seeing his little sister do it, gave him the motivation he finally needed. He took off just fine after a couple of rough starts and now he can start on his own and ride the bike like he has been doing it for years! He can start by himself and everything. So, there is our big milestone moment. The only downside is that in addition to chasing bikes around for a couple of hours; we weeked our whole garden and fertilized it and planted vegetables! Shawn also mowed the lawn and I worked at Curves this morning and worked out...needless to say, I am wiped!!! But proud of the kids!!!
