We got new bikes! Gresham's bike already looks too small for him... yes, we knew that when we bought it... It's a balance bike, so it has no pedals. He got a balance bike for his 2nd birthday that he has had a blast riding, but it is broken. The idea of this kind of bike is that you learn to coast on it and balance, and then can go right to a pedal bike with no training wheels. Now that Gresham has experienced the speed of a balance bike, he didn't want to ride Aidan's old bike with training wheels, and he is not tall enough to ride Aidan's old bike without training wheels. So we bought another balance bike. At least Owen will be able to use this one, probably around age 2 or 2 1/2. It's a cute little bike, and Gresham likes to ride down the driveway with his feet up. His balance is really quite good!
