We bought Peter a bike the week before Easter. I feel like I have been behind on this sorta thing. I always tend to be conservative and cheap and think my kids don't always need the latest and greatest and so I tend to be behind on the appropriate "toy" curve. We recently realized that Peter should start working on bike skills... and it would be a great way to build his leg muscles for PT. After a couple looks on craigslist, we just bought him one from Target that was on sale for Easter. :) Theoretically he was excited about it. But we haven't quite gotten that to carry over to real life (yet!).
It was a hot and sunny Easter afternoon so we headed out for some rides. Lily Bug enjoyed ME pulling her around on Pete's scooter. ;) She comes by it honestly, I can't blame her! And look at that cuteness, who could resist!
Lily decided to scooter herself around. :)
Then decided to play in the rocks. I think it is the cutest thing when toddlers squat like this!
Mike finally did convince Peter to ride it over to me (for a milkshake!).
I tried to video it, while Lily ran out in front of Peter, Mike ran to grab Lily so let go of Peter, I tried to help Peter as I was in the middle of videoing and pretty much just made him crash :(... not a good start. We felt so bad b/c he was doing great and then we totally gave him a bad reinforcement for trying to be brave! :(
We'll keep working on it!
