 Joshua asked me this morning if he could have a new bike with 2 wheels not 4. I said I could make his bikes have 2 wheels by taking the little wheels off if he really wanted but he might fall off. He was adiment he wanted to try, so off came his stabilisers. It feels like a huge milestone, and I was so excited in the street some of my parents neighbours came out and cheered him on lol He was a bit cautious at first and didn't want me to let go, but after a times he was well away and was happy to try on his own. He has managed it for a few metres, but not far, but bless its only his first time. I am so proud! Ive promised him I will spend longer practising tomorrow as we had to come in. He is getting so grown up. I am mega proud of him!

With mummy...

and flying solo!

I'll have to take his stabilisers off his other bike at my house now! lol

 He's out there now practising lol He said I didnt have to watch, he wasnt a baby. Its a pedestrainised area, so Im peeping from the window I have no worries about cars etc so letting him play with his friend without his mummy lol

He's completely cracked it now lol He was doing it all afternoon yesterday and was straight back out this morning. He's loving his little bit of freedom!

Now you see him...
