Yesterday the boys FINALLY got to ride their bikes for the first time since they got them for Christmas. I know, bad mama, right? Anytime the boys or I thought about riding the bikes it was either a super windy day, or raining, or something and it just never worked out. I'm glad that Chris got to be here though because he had to do some adjusting on the bikes. Zachary's brakes were so tight that he could barely pedal. I think most kids this age (4-5) can usually at least ride a bike with training wheels by now but for some reason Alex & Zachary have always had a hard time pedaling. We had trikes and even a big plastic three wheeler but they would mostly just push it around with their feet no matter how hard we tried. This time, though, they pedaled. Alex did a pretty good job. Zachary wasn't too bad but they both need more practice. Our main problem is that our driveway has a pretty good slope to it so it's harder to pedal uphill. Then if you do make it to the top you come flying down - not good. But, for now they both had fun riding around in the flatest part of the driveway. We'll find a better place to ride another day.
