2 down 2/3 to go.....

To most this might not seem as big as it is but to us it's huge!! So today both Samantha and Steven,Jr. learned to ride their bikes WITHOUT their training wheels!!!!! See at our last home as much as I miss it - it was not practical for the kids. The very long driveway which would have been prefect to learn to ride on was all rock. Not very fun to ride on. The other problem was we were on a very busy road. OK so enough with that this is a new day with a new house with no traffic and a big ole driveway for the kids to ride on round and round and round. Of course I documented the occasion properly :) Enjoy! Oh and I so saved the BEST FOR LAST!!!

So it started off like this with a lot of falling.....













When the boy thought he was gonna fall he would go toward the curb hoping that it would help him..lol













Sam didn't fall nearly as much as Steven which we used as the proper motivation to torture Steven into keep going. Gotta love his competitive nature!














And she's off....














and then he's off.....














and now their all off and its mass confusion.....














Still going.....














OK now this puddle is just across from our driveway. At first I told them to stay away because they were still falling to much I didn't want them to fall in the puddle....















then I turned my head and Steven thought it would be a good idea.....sure for entertainment purposes it was/is. Seriously we couldn't stop laughing - the kid got SOAKED!













He jumps up quick thinking that would save him from the water...














it didn't and if he knew how to give us the finger he so would have. He walked away into the house for a hot shower. As I type this I am still laughing looking at the pictures of it - what a clown




















After we were able to get the kids going straight they needed to know how to turn. Well every time Steven tried to turn he looked like Pee Wee Herman making those wide side to side loops.....you remember him on that red bike. Ok so the kid just wasn't getting it. The next best thing was to get the Dad to show him. No I wasn't doing it someone needed to take the pictures.

I told you I saved the best for last!













He's laughing here cause he knew where this picture was going to end up..... Now I am not sure which is funnier this or the boy falling into the puddle. I think it's a tie.

I think it is appropriate to remind you that if you click on any of my photo's you will see a larger version of it. Try it out.....this is a good one to see larger...lol

Love you babe for all you put yourself through for our kids - and the blog followers :) (or course!)
