No More Training Wheels!

This was a big weekend for Ethan! He is officially a big boy! No more Training Wheels!



Dad had him all geared up with knee pads & elbow pads. Needless to say, he survived!



After just a couple of minutes and only minor crashes, Ethan was being a daredevil on wheels.
We really didn't know what to think because all of his life - we speculated that he'd be the cautious, safe, mature one! We realized on Saturday that we have been way off! Ethan is just as much a crazy hooligan as his brothers! We're in for some serious trouble.




This is my precious baby boy who is amazing on a scooter. He's been watching Nate go down the driveways in the neighborhood & of course he has to do it too. All the while giving me panic attacks. He's only 1! He'd scooter all day & all night if we let him.




This would be Nate. He's going extremely fast, feet on his seat and laughing at my worried looking face. Oh, and he's in pajamas of course. (He really thinks he should be able to wear p.j.'s to school/stores/church. Not happening) So he is my eldest son, the leader of their wildness, their extreme sport role model. What's a mom to do?

Oh. My. Gosh. They are so brave! And sooooo cute! I'm happy to read that you have real "boy" boys, ya know? (Not that I ever doubted it!) I think it's good for boys to be on the wild side! I hope Luke turns out that way too! Grace has been asking us to take off her training wheels (and she's older than Ethan!) and we've been putting it off because WE are the ones who are nervous! Your blog inspired me to at least let her try it! They grow up too fast!!
