New Bike


Santa brought the girls a new bike and Liv has really taken to it!
It is a "balance bike," a 2-wheeler with no pedals or training wheels.

We started calling it a "running bike" to help her visualize how it works ... then watched some YouTube video of other kids on Strider bikes. She tried it out in the grass first "just in case I fall over - it won't hurt." By day two she was moving right along - not necessarily straight, or without wobbling, but that's the point.


I really think Camila could ride it too, but she's just getting tall enough to reach the pedals on the trikes and is pretty excited about that. We'll see what's next for her. 


You can see Liv is getting pretty comfortable on it. And pleased with her progress.
