Bike Rider

Avery has recently shown an interest in riding her bike. She would ride it every now and then but she finally started to ask to ride it more often. A few weeks ago we all went on a bike ride together (Daddy bought himself a bike to ride with us - a story within itself). We thought for sure we would make it once around the block and then Avery would tire out, but she surprised us! We kept riding and riding and riding until we had literally gone up and down every street in our neighborhood. Avery ended up getting a blister on her foot halfway through our ride but took off her Crocs and wanted to continue!

So, we decided we would reward her for her great job! We tried to find the mobile snow cone place that had been at the 4 way stop a few times that week but the Shivers truck was not there! So, we thought, maybe Avery would like an ice cream cone from McD's or a frosty from Wendy's? Nope, she wanted to stop at the gas station and get ice cream from there! She knows from traveling back and forth to GA what cool things you can buy at a gas station. So, Avery and Riley both got to pick out there own kinds. You would have thought we had dropped $20 at Cold Stone or something....they were so happy!


Anyway, so proud of you Avery for getting so good at your bike! Next step is no training wheels...take your time sweet pea!
