Mommy are you so proud of me?

One of our goals for this summer was to get Alex off his training wheels. We practiced last week but it was so hot and muggy we didn't practice for very long. Well, today was a nice cool overcast day so we decided to give it another go.





At first we started on pavement but CJ was to nervouse to let go and ruin the excitment of learning how to ride his bike, so we moved over to a big open field.






It was a good thing because it helped with the falls.







After a few minutes he had it!
Well, as long as he kept peddling he had it.
He kept peddeling farther and farther each time.


He finally felt confident to ride on pavement.






Isaiah and I were cheering him on and screaming for joy! He loved the attention and saw how proud we were of all his efforts.


When he got close to me he shouted "Mommy are you so proud of me!?!?"
I had to choke back tears and let him know how proud I was of him.

I know with another day or two of practice he won't need help anymore and we'll be able to go on some trails and have some outdoor fun!
