Noah's Big Boy Bike

This summer while at Jeff's brother & sister-in-law's - we noticed that Noah hopped on his cousin, Dylan's, bike. We didn't realize that Noah would enjoy riding a "big bike" but after that, we were on the hunt. In fact, coming home from their house ( a 2-hr ride) we hit the jack-pot. I found his bike at a yard sale & got it for $8. Noah was THRILLED."Look at me!" (And in true Noah-fashion - he rides with his frog boots on, silly boy.)Proud owner of a "Big Boy Bike." Of course, we told Noah that we'd have to get him a helmet & he was super anxious for us to just go out & buy one.A week or so later - not ONLY does he have his bike, but NOW his own helmet...with monkeys on it to boot!Noah, being ever so active, decides he's done riding & must mow the lawn...And give his sister a ride on the gator...And, *whew, I need a rest...A few nights later, Jeff & I were taking a walk down on the old runway & Noah wanted to take his bike. He did great...peddle, peddle, peddleKeeping right up with daddy.Of course Lil'Miss was with us too - she has bike-envy. She'll be riding sooner than we think, I'm sure.She is such a good sport about stuff -she really enjoys watching Noah have fun.

Ben and Noah would get along very well together with their bikes! The other night we took a walk and tried to get him in the stroller with Maaike... no way! So he rode his bike the whole way and did great! They're getting so big! Glad Noah loves his bike!
