Drew July 28th, 2008When we left on a bike ride this evening, we had no idea it would be a life changing event for a certain 5 year old boy. Half way through our ride, one of his training wheels broke off. I was taking up the rear, and quietly picked up the training wheel. Drew had no idea it was gone! Once we got home he insisted that it was time to take the other wheel off.
And away he went. Just like that. Even with his shoes on the wrong feet.
He quickly figured out that grass was the safest place to crash.
After a few runs up and down the block, he hopped off his bike and started jumping, cheering, and dancing.
This is Drew’s sign language for “no more training wheels.”
He was on cloud nine million, SO proud of himself and wouldn’t stop doing the “I am awesome” dance.
The faster he went, the happier he was.
His first successful turn, right into the garage. Could this little boy BE any happier?
We called it a night, but had to promise another bike ride in the morning. Congrats Drew, that was totally WICKED!!!
I always love reading your blog because the way you write it is so fun! Congrats to Drew…that is a big step- good thing Ryan was there to witness it. Have I told you that I have a brother-in-law named Ryan married to Ami?? Anyway, love the pics of Rowan too…looks like she’s getting used to the camera now!! I love when they start lifting their head during tummy time!!
How freakin’ cute is he? I love how proud he is. That’s awesome that he didn’t even know at first that one was off. Way to go Drew!
Good Job Drew! That is a big day for little guys!
That a feat worthy of something bigger than a Dilly Bar! Watch the mail Drew, G’ma is sending you a treat!
THIS IS SO DANG CUTE!!! Way to capture his big moment! I love the last picture of him.
