Well, I had to come back from the grave of loser bloggers to share fun fun news!
As I type this, it is the eve of my baby girl's 5th Birthday. Wow, does time fly! I can't even believe she will be five! But the fun news is that she learned to ride a bike yesterday! It was so exciting and fun to watch her! Ryan popped her on a two wheeler with no trainers for the first time and no joke, in 30 seconds flat she was off. I know, I could not believe it. The secret to her success? A kids balance bike. Ours is a Strider. It has no pedals and it teaches kids to balance. So we took her to the church parking lot and she rode around like a pro! We went again today and put Dean on a smaller bike we found on craigslist. And same thing, in 30 seconds he was off riding a bike too! It was so fun to watch!So I have pictures from Ella's first go on a bike,..but bad mommy forgot the camera today when Dean has his first bike ride. Boo.
Ella was so dramatic the whole time. The bike is so hard to pedal and it weighs a ton. So every few feet she would go, she would stop, jump off the bike and say she needed a rest. Well, i looked over one time and saw her "resting". Hilarious! My 5 year old Drama Queen!

It is no surprise to me that ER can ride a bike already! She could probably do some flying trapeze too, if you put her on one.
Lil- I think you should ask the Strider company if you can take some pictures for their advertising campaign. Let me know what they say.
