Caleb rides "out" training wheels!

Caleb announces last night that he wants Chip to take off his training wheel so he can ride his bike "out" training wheels (he never says WITHout, just OUT). Now, you must realize that he has had Chip take off and put back on his training wheels several times. So, Chip is thinking that this is another false alarm. But first thing this morning he is bugging Chip about it again. So the "men" head out to the garage to take the training wheels off and learn to ride a 2-wheeler. Literally 2 minutes after they are off he is riding down the sidewalk the length of our front yard by himself. So of course he needs to go show off to someone, so we head over to Grandma Jane's (where there is always a captive audience). That is where I took this video. Chip and I are thinking "wow, he is doing great for his first day." Then when we got back home, he rode all the way to the end of our block and back (slightly uphill) with me jogging beside him. He is getting to be such a big boy. I feel like this is a real milestone. Now, seriously, if he is this good in a day, he'll be riding the Tour de France when he's like 10!!!!






Also, check out some really cute pics I took at an Elfering family BBQ on Saturday!

That's awesome that he wanted to take them off and he is already riding like a pro. Way to go!
