on two wheels...

as promised...pictures of elijah-man on two wheels. can't believe my crazy boy is riding without training wheels! now to conquer the potty...

it was a pretty fast process, getting him riding without training wheels. he'd been watching his fifteen year old cousin ride, pop wheelies and do bunny hops...and of course, he wanted to be able to ride like his cousin. so...john took the trainers off one saturday morning. elijah fell a few times, got frustrated and asked to have the wheels put back on. i figured that was the end of it for a few months. nope. that following monday (the first of june), he asked john to take them off again...and they haven't been on since. while he's certainly not popping wheelies yet (not for lack of trying...that little bike is HEAVY!), he is riding up and down the street at ridiculous speeds, vaulting himself off the curbs and clammering for a ramp. *sigh* my little dude...
