no training wheels!

We’ve had such a fun, busy summer and I have been so bad at blogging!  I just wanted to do a quick post – Ellie and Addie can ride their bikes without training wheels now!  Ellie wanted hers off – it was kind of a random request last night as she had never mentioned it before.  Well, L.J. took them off, and she did great!  Not one crash, not even running along side her for a while.  He gave her a little push, and she took off (and this is the girl who trips over her own two feet and walks into things all the time).  We were surprised!  But so dang proud.  Well, Addie was not to be outdone, and wanted her training wheels off too.  We were not so surprised when she did great on her first try as well.  She’s a pro.  The girl is athletic and competitive.  And barely 4 (oops, need to catch up on birthdays too!).  Grant and Mace were there to cheer them on.
