New set of wheels

I've been meaning to get these up on the blog, but have been a little slow (and busy)! We got Jack his first official bike for Easter. Bryan could hardly contain his excitement, so we gave it to him the night before. Bryan is a bit more patient than I am with him riding it. He's not quite getting the pedaling thing down and I refuse to just push him around, so we're looking at some other options. We might take the pedals off and let him push with his legs until he gets a bit stronger. He doesn't have a pedaling tricycle, so that might be another option. I think his bike is just a little too much for him to pedal and he's not strong enough yet. But he still loves it!

Oh! I see my bike!

This isn't really what it looks like. He was telling some silly story and was using hand gestures at the time.

Posing with his bike.

Who's happier, Jack or Daddy?

Fun times had by all!

I think you should leave the pedals on. It took Porgie about 6 months to figure out her 1st bike. I didn't really push her around either. I just put her bike out on our deck and let her "ride" it out there (she just pushed it with her feet). But over time she figured it out. She is an old pro now.

I love the smiles on both Jack and Bryan's faces. Pure joy! Great photos Chris.
