Bike Riding!

Lincoln has finally mastered the art of "riding a bike" - Now we can legitimately use the phrase "Its like riding a bike".  We started working on riding the bike with out training wheels back in March, but then he received a Razor Scooter for his birthday and lost interest in his bike. We decided this week it was time to learn how to ride for real!

I took him to the park gave him a couple of refresher coaching tips, told him to say to himself "I believe in me" and pushed him down the little grassy hill. I could hear him yelling at the top of his lungs over and over "I believe in me". He made it all the way down the hill and up the sidewalk around the park before falling over. He tried over and over again and in half an hour he had it under control.  The next day he learned how to start and stop all by himself, so no push from me to get started and stopping by using the breaks instead of falling over. We are SOO SOO proud of him.

 The first pictures are his early attempts at learning to ride back in March.
