Big Boy

We decided that it was time for Rylan to learn to ride a two wheeler with no training wheels this year. He was very hesitant and didn't really want to, so we decided that we would take him to a local park and teach him first on the grass (helps with the fear of falling, this was the way that my sister taught Darien almost 6 years ago, works great). All it took was about 30 min. of trying and then he was riding like a pro.
He was so proud of himself. He is such a funny kid because if he can't get it right the first time he figures there is no point in trying again. There were some tears because he didn't want to do it but after that he was was all smiles.
These pictures are from the next morning, he just couldn't wait to get outside to ride his bike.
The take off. Yes, his bike is purple and pink, it was a hand-me down from his best friend (girl) and it is the perfect size for learning to ride.

The way he was riding the next day was so good that it was hard to believe that he had just learnt the night before. :)

These are such proud moments as a parent when you children learn something new. He was so funny because after riding for a little bit he said that his wrists hurt. Obviously he was holding on really tight. LOL So Cute!!!
