Logan asked me today if he could try riding the "little" bike without training wheels. Sure...why not? I wasn't expecting anything magical but Logan did it on the first try!! Wow!! Logan will be 4 in a couple of months. I was shocked. Here's a short clip of him riding his bigger bike. His legs are still a little short and he needs help getting started but I'm sure he'll have it down in no time.
Kaya decided that she wasn't going to be out done. We tried several times last year to take off the training wheels with NO success. I just figured it would happen when she was ready. All it took was seeing Logan riding without training wheels. I had her try on the small bike first and she took off on the first try. NO CRYING!!!!! After a few runs on the small bike I took the training wheels off her bike. Wow!! Not only can she ride the bike without training wheels, she can start and stop. She's still a little wobbly and needs more practice but I'm really proud of her. Kaya will be 6 in a couple of weeks. She also recently learned to pump on the swing by herself. (Thanks go Daddy for that one) Here's a little clip of Kaya:

That is so cool. Riley just got a new bike for his birthday without training wheels and he does so good on it. It really only took Russ about half an hour to work with him. Now he can just get on and go. It is a pretty crazy thing to see your kids accomlishing such "big kid" things. Way to go Kaya and Logan.
Nothing like a little sibling peer pressure huh!!! I love it. Isaac learned how to ride a few months before 4 too and it still scares the heck out of me sometimes when he is doing all these trick on his bike that he sees his older sisters doing....It's a wonder that we haven't ever had an ER trip from it!
