One day while we were outside I mentioned to Gage we were going to take off his training wheels and try out his bike. He was okay with the idea but insisted it was only a temporary thing. I agreed, thinking once he got it he wouldn't want his training wheels back on (right?) Well we got his bike set to go and he wanted to try it out on the grass. Jordan kept a hold trying to help him learn to keep his balance, and from the looks of it we were thinking he may need more body control. Little did we know all he needed was a shove. Jordan decided just to let go and see what happens and sure enough he rode with great control, he even rode standing up (since riding in the grass was a little difficult). Can you believe the first time we let go he was pro. After riding a little bit more that morning he said he was tired (the grass and wind probably had something to do with it but he didn't want to venture to solid ground) so we agreed to put them back on and they have been on ever since. My cute boy! He definitely does better just put in situations where you don't talk about it too much before hand and he prepares himself.
