No Training Wheels!

May has been a big month of accomplishments for 2 of my boys. Alex kicked it off mid-May by learning how to ride his bicycle without training wheels! Aiden mastered coming back down the stairs (he'd been flying up them for two months, and then yelling until someone went to get him) and started walking unassisted last week! 

We had been talking to Alex since the end of April about learning how to ride his bike without the training wheels and we knew he was ready because of the way he flew on his scooter, but he's our cautious one and wasn't ready. We took off the training wheels and my husband attempted to get him on, but Alex wasn't having any of it. We just kept talking it up and told him to let us know when he was ready to try, and on a Tuesday mid-morning, out of the blue, he came tearing into the house, shouting and cheering! He had picked up his bike, got on, and started riding it all by himself. I grabbed the baby and the camera and we went out to record him and take some pictures. Then, of course, we had to call dad and grandma and grandpa to let them know! He was grinning from ear to ear and was so proud of himself!

Alex's amazing accomplishments is perfect for the Cricut Circle Monthly Challenge, which was: Milestones & Memories.
