This past weekend I was busy with reports so Josh took the kids to the park to enjoy the nice weather. The kids wanted to ride their bikes and so we decided that perhaps Maddy was ready to put the pedals on the bike. She's been much better at balancing and going down a slight incline with the balance bike, so on they went. When they got back, Maddy was just beaming because she figured it out. At first Josh needed to help her get started with a little push and she was able to pedal. Then when she got tired of waiting for Josh to help her (he was busy with Ethan) she managed start sometimes on her own. I was so excited for her that we went right back out and got some video. It was pretty amazing to know that the whole 'balance bike' thing really does work!
