Movin' on Up

Today after work I suggested to Gerrit that he ride his bike. Its been pretty rainy and cold lately so its been about a week since he last rode his bike. He jumped at the opportunity (surprise, surprise). After a few minutes he put his push bike back in the garage and came out PEDALING a trike! (he has 2 trikes - both hand me downs) How exciting is that? He has been saying for about a month now that he 'pedals at Julie's ' but when I ask him to pedal, he can't do it. He was pretty proud - a huge smile as he pedaled down the driveway. He was pretty excited to show dad his new trick too when he came home. He's not quite 2.5 and moving right along in his cycling skills. We may have a kid who can ride a 2 wheel bike but not be potty trained! (Let's hope not!)
