Bicycle Riding

He feels like a pro!

 In the last two-three weeks, Jonah's bicycle riding has improved so much! He went from only riding on two wheels on a basketball court (about twice!), to riding up and down Opa and Oma's street. He asks almost daily to get out and ride his bike. And, I'm so glad we're on a street right now that he can! I still need to be outside to keep an eye on him, but he loves it. Reuben breaks out his scooter - and sometimes his bike - and goes up and down that street with him.

Gosh, I love this kid!

We've had lots of wrecks already, but thankfully I see Jonah getting right back up and getting back on his bike. He is not always the toughest of kids, which is fine, but even if he had a fall the day before, he is ready to ride again.

Our new house is one a good street too. Still will probably have quite a bit of traffic to keep an eye on, but not so much that we can't ride our bikes. And there is a sidewalk. It will just be traffic from the houses and residents, which is soooooo much better than the busy street from the first house!

A couple days ago, we pulled out my bike, and Eli rode around with Matthias in the front seat. He LOVED.IT. Up and down the street they went too. I remember when we first got that seat with Jonah was little, and Eli took him on rides, and I would take him on rides before church on Sunday mornings. Sweet memories of little boys snuggled in front of you with the biggest grins on their faces!
