Biker Dude!

For a while now, Landon has decided that he is just as big as his brothers and thinks he can/needs to do everything they do. This sometimes end in disappointment for his little 3 year old heart. But one thing that he has wanted to do for a while now is ride his brother's bike. They are of course too big for him, but don't think that hasn't kept him from trying! Usually he can be pacified with riding a scooter, but sometimes, not so much. So we were thinking we needed to get him a small bike so he can feel like he's just like his brothers. 

A few weeks ago while at the DI (shocker I know, I usually hate that place and never find anything good and end up feeling like it was a waste of time going there) I found a cute little bike in great condition for just $5!!!! Which since I know he won't need that small of a bike for long, that was just the perfect price. It didn't have the training wheels, but we still had ones from Conner's bike in the garage. So we brought it home and Patrick put on the training wheels and we dug out an old helmet that the older boys have grown out of and Landon was happy as could be! He kept asking if he could go ride him new bike, he was so excited to have one all his own! 

He looked pretty dang cute out there learning to ride and pedal. He's still trying to get the hang of pedaling forward to move and not backward which makes him stop. But he's getting better! He loves it!
