Wordless Wednesday – First Bike Ride

Olivia’s First Bike Ride
Last spring, I bought Olivia her first bike. She was thrilled… until she wasn’t. After a little tip over, (okay she took off on it at the store and crashed into a display,) she got scared and decided she wasn’t quite ready for riding a bike.

All spring and summer I tried to coax her onto her bike. She would try, but within seconds she would get scared and get off.

But this past weekend, on a very spring-like afternoon, Olivia asked to go for a bike ride! YAY!!!

What a difference a year can make. Olivia had a wonderful time and even got back up after a little crash. I am so excited for her!

 

What is Your Weekly Photo?

Mom Bloggers (and Dad Bloggers too!) post a photo on your site, link up and find others… Wordless Wednesday is tons of fun. (And I know it says “wordless” but I usually just can’t bear to not write anything! If I had created it, I probably would have named it something different! LOL So feel to link up your word-full or word-less Wednesday photos!)

Leave the URL to your photo (clearly mine are never truly “wordless”) and then visit others!

Here is a thumbnail linky:



Or a basic linky:



Thanks to Uisce for creating Wordless Wednesday.

    Awesome. Great job, Olivia! We broke out the bikes this weekend, though it’s very muddy. Spring is almost here!

  11. So cool! My dd6 finally decided to tackle learning to ride a biker. She’s been riding our home-built striders. When she realized she couldn’t race with the other kids, then she wanted to learn to ride a bike.

  12. YAY!! Glad to hear she got back on her bike!

  13. That is a special princess bike! Go Olivia!

  14. She looks so happy with herself!

    Good for her! Sometimes kids just need to grow a bit before trying something new. My son recently started learning how to use a scooter. Now that he’s use to movement, we’ll try riding a bike this summer

  16. Hooray! She conquered her fear! That’s the best feeling ever!

  17. Yay Olivia! Look at that smile. 🙂
