Two-Wheelin' It

IMG_0530.JPG

This is just one of those achievements worthy of a blog post. . .Maia has ditched the training wheels and is now riding a two-wheeler!!!! It all started when I was home in PA at my parents for a few weeks (we were having some home renovations done so the kids and I fled the dirt and chaos) and Maia learned the art of balancing on a scooter. After several days of scootering all over the driveway, she asked to go on one of the big bikes and within 10 minutes she had it! Since returning to St. Louis the kids and I have gone to Forest Park and Maia has biked on the trails while I've jogged with Caden in the jogging stroller. This is one of those experiences that has really made me feel like my little girl is growing up. . .no longer is it just me pushing her around the park, but she is old enough, and strong enough, and has enough endurance to take herself around the park. I know it won't be long before we are going on some serious runs together!
