I like to think that biking is in the blood. Since as early as I can remember my bike was literally my best friend; Cody has always been pretty obsessed with two wheels. We kind of fell in love/hate biking in the foothills of Alberta. These days our garage looks like a tiny shop - five adult bikes, a tag along bike and five kiddie bikes - every size. I'm so pleased to say that our kids are loving bikes as much as we did at their age. In fact, because Kate started riding without training wheels at age four she has inspired two bigger kids to drop the extra wheels and they too have had great success.
At the start of Spring, Elliott wasn't interested in pedals at all. So, we went ahead and ordered him another balance bike as his previous one is officially worn out. Then all of a sudden two weeks ago he was gung ho to give a two wheeler a try. Again with the help of Papa and
his back he did very well (without training wheels) in a matter of moments. If he would stop watching his feet the whole time he pedalled I may actually be able to relax. So far so good - especially for a silly three year old.

And here is some more of the mayhem that takes place on our once quiet court.
Feet on the pedals and head in the clouds.
Love it and love you guys.
