Look Mom! I Don't Need Training Wheels!

Last Saturday was a BIG day at our household, as, not only did Landon learn to ride his bike with NO training wheels, but he taught HIMSELF how to do it! Jeff and I were in Spring cleaning mode in and outside of the house when I noticed Landon was on one of our two-wheeled bikes. Knowing that he didn't yet know how to ride a two-wheeled bike, I went over to the driveway to help him try to learn how. Right away he said to me, "Mom, I can do it myself!" So I backed off. After I saw that the bike seat was low enough for him to reach the ground with his feet and that he was just scooting around the driveway pushing himself with his feet, I went back to some yard work. Not 10 mintues later I hear Landon yelling at me, "Mommy! I'm doing it!" Sure enough, he was riding on 2 wheels like he'd been doing it for years! LOL! The video below doesn't do his riding skills justice, but I was able to capture one of his first rides with no training wheels. The kid amazes me! He is DETERMINED for sure! We are so proud of him!
