Wilson rides a two wheeler!

Wilson has been riding the balance bike for over six months.  He can coast from one end of the driveway all the way around to the top of the other side.  He liked the balance bike and was not interested in riding a two wheeler.  Like any parent, we wanted to see him do something that we knew that he could do.  I also knew that it would be easier for us to go on family bike rides on the greenway.

While I was napping, Tom took Wilson aside and had him try to ride Gabriel’s two wheel bike downstairs in the driveway (at the beach).  Wilson did one lap with Tom helping him and then Wilson pushed him off and rode all by himself.  Wilson was so proud of himself.  He almost crashed a few times because he was looking around at everyone.  :)

I am so proud of Wilson.  I knew that he could do it.  He is riding a two wheel bike at three and a half years old.

Today I was able to see his success in person and get it on film.

Here is a video to prove it.

 

Strawberry Festival

Today we left for the beach. We knew ahead of time that the McCloed Farms Strawberry Festival was today. We always stop at McCloed Farms on the way to the beach to get peaches or strawberries, depending on the time of year.

We had lunch, went on a horse drawn wagon ride, climbed up into giant tractors, and listened to music. The kids favorite part was the bounce house, obstacle course, and slide.
