Sydney's Bike!

Okay, so we love to spoil our kids! It's awful! We were going to get Sydney a bike for her birthday, but felt that if we waited until the end of July, she wouldn't be able to get much use out of it this year, so we bought her one over the weekend. Of course it's a Trek because I love Trek bikes and we wanted it to last. Our original idea was to get one in maybe a more nuetral color so that Peyton could use it when he got old enough. BUT, when my adorable girl is asking please and has the largest cutest smile as she's test driving the bike, we caved and got her the pink one. We are getting her a basket and tassles too. She wanted the bike at the store that had them and I told her we could get them as an after-market upgrade on any bike that we decided to get. So, that will be the next trip to the store.
Sydney is amazing at riding this bike! She did fall over a couple times because she was turning too sharply, but she climbed right back on and kept going! Her biggest concern was that she fell in a puddle and got her pants wet. I decided to drawn a line on the driveway of a large circle to help her follow to make a bigger turn-around. She followed that line exactly! It was amazing how accurate she was!

I'm so excited to see her want to ride her bike and have so much fun! It will be fun to ride over to the park and places!
