Bikes and more bikes....

Yesterday afternoon (Sunday), we had big plans to go swimming after Andrew's nap. He slept too late though so I suggested we just go for a bike ride. Simple enough. No, no, no. Tim decided that he should teach Will how to ride his bike without training wheels. Mind you, Will doesn't ride his bike that much at all but he is very coordinated (not from me!!). Tim took him out to our cul-de-sac and right away he did really well. We decided that his bike was just too small for him though so he started practicing on Jack's bike. He did great and Tim told him that we would take him right then to pick out a new bike! Off to the store we went and we came home with two new bikes- one for Jack and one for Will. I will admit that I may be to blame for that. I didn't think it was right that Will's bike was bigger than Jack's bike. Tim thought that was crazy but then went and found one for Jack! We took the new bikes over to Jack's school- the same place Jack learned- and we practiced some more. He was really scared on his new bike at first
but then he started chasing Jack and Tim and there were big smiles!
Jack loved the chance to try out his new bike as well.
Andrew just hung out and cheered everyone on!
