Our little boy is growing up way too fast. He can officially ride his bike without training wheels!
July 14th
It took only a day for Payton to learn to ride his bike without training wheels. He didn't become a pro right away, but he could do it with out us holding onto him.
Josh was a really good teacher. I laughed a lot while watching them. Payton would get SO frustrated with himself, then we would act totally pathetic when he would fall. I couldn't help myself.
He struggled first with trying to figure out how to balance. While working on that he struggled with looking afraid to where he was going. He just wanted to keep watching his feet.
He did finally get those down. Last, Josh had to teach him how to start off by himself. It took him a few tries, but he finally got it!

He was so excited to go out and ride his bike. I took him and his sisters outside and we watched him ride his bike all by himself. He did so great!
Josh and I were very surprised at how well he did. He has a tendency to get so frustrated with himself that it causes him to just want to give up. He just had to convince himself that he could do it! Once he did that he was totally fine. He is excited to ask for a new bike for his birthday, since he is out growing this toy story bike he got when he was 3.
