Big Boys Need Bikes

Alec is officially a big boy. He has graduated up from the tricycle to the bicycle.

After spending a fun day working with his Papa, they went bicycle hunting. As expected, Alec wanted the Spider Man bike. Alec thinks Toys R Us delivered it to his house (Really, I had already bought a brand new one at Once Upon a Child for half price earlier that day because I knew that is what he would pick). It was a rainy afternoon but he did try to ride it before dark. He could not fiqure out how to go at first because when he would back pedal, unlike on a tricycle, he was pressing the brakes.

Here is a picture of dad trying to help him. My dad is the biggest kid at heart and would spend 24/7 with Alec if he had the time. They are best buddies. Alec never wants to come home when he is with this Papa.


This is a blurry action shot. Dad was on his knees pushing him.
Alec was dressed by his Papa if you can't tell.
rubber boots, cowboy hat, windsuit pants, and a pajama shirt:)


Today, we went and got his helmet. It looks just like a shark with big teeth and a fin on top. He picked it out himself. After only a few trys, he was riding like a pro today. He was so proud of himself!
