(we didn't mean to be matchy matchy with the helmet and bike. it's just the color of the bike kai wanted.)
kai's first "bike." a glider (or balance) bike. meaning it has no peddles. just two tires. he's in love. the first day we rode all around the neighborhood and to the park. all day. except for sleeping hours. poor zaiah, stuck in her stroller. but .... kai has really picked up on riding this bike. you get speed by walking your feet along the ground, and then pick up your feet to glide and ride.
he's also discovered watching diggers, backhoes, monster trucks, etc. on youtube. another love affair.
you'll see in the first picture, another thing he's been doing. wearing mismatched shoes. rarely will you see him now with two of the same color on. i love these little things as he struggles with dependency vs. independency. oh the 3's, they are a challenge.

Hey, where'd you get the glider/balance bike? An avid biker was telling us about those and we'd love to get one for the kids when they finally start to bike (oh yeah, they have to WALK first!!).
andy ordered it from mykinderbike.com. if you search the internet for promo code you can get 15% off. a lot of people like the skuut too (it doesn't have a brake though). it's wooden, and we're not so good at bringing bikes in, so we opted for metal. search amazon too for balance bike. or call andy for more info.
