WOW WOW RYAN!

Late yesterday afternoon i asked the boys if they wanted to go out and ride their bikes while blake ran to the gym. It was cold out but they despeartely needed to get some time outside. They all got their coats on and got their helmets on and were ready to go. After we'd been out for a few minutes i asked ryan if he wanted to ride sam's bike (since we took the training wheels off it earlier this summer). Ryan was all kinds of excited and said yeah! I thought i'd just see how he was on his ballance to see if he was anywhere near ready to have his trianing wheels taken off. Ryan thought it was a blast. He'd laugh as he would start to tip and i'd catch him and he'd laugh a little more. He thought he was somethin' else. After going back and forth for a little bit i wasn't sure he was getting it and the bike was a little too big for him so i thought we'd have to wait. Ryan reluctantly got off sam's bike and got back on his own and rode around the driveway for a few minutes before he came and told me he wanted his bike like sam's. So i thought ok, i'll take off his training wheels for a little while and see if being on the smaller bike would help. I think it only took a few short passes before he had it. I tried to let Ethan be the camera man again and he did an ok job, but he forgot to stop between rides so the video bumps up and down and all over the place so much you might get sick so i'll spare you all. Instead i have one of ryan after he had the hang of it a little more. By the time Blake got home from the gym Ryan was ready to show off his new skills to Daddy. Way to go RYAN!!!
