Another Milestone for Landon!

I have been working for a few weeks on helping Landon ride his bicycle without his training wheels.  I will have to admit I was a lot more scared than Landon ever thought about being when I was running along side of him.  I was so afraid he was going to fall and hurt himself!  This is when Daddy's tough love comes into play.  I thought it would work out a whole lot better if Bobby ran along side of him a couple of times.  Well what do you know Bobby gave him ONE push and he was off.  I was so proud that Landon completed another milestone!  I think he was really proud of himself as well!  So of course the first run was stopped by falling off and several more after that were as well.  One even ended by Landon running into Luke sitting in his stroller.  (Luke looked at him like he was crazy!) Now we have to work on getting started on his own, stopping with his brakes, and learning tricks!  Bobby use to be a trickster on his bicycle and I know he can't wait to teach Landon all of those things that he use to do.  He has already started! 

Here we go!  Bobby is helping Landon get started with a push off
Look at me! I can ride my bike.  When he fell of the first time he said, "this is too easy!" Getting mighty brave! 
 Bobby showing off some of his bicycle skills.  Landon was loving it!
 He hasn't lost his skills.  He was doing all kinds of tricks with flip flops and a bicycle that was too little for him! 
Luke was proud of Bra-Bra even if he did run into his stroller!
