A couple months ago Vale jumped on a neighbors bike and started pedaling. It surprised both Jared and I since he doesn't have a tricycle or anything else to teach him to pedal so we decided to skip the tricycle stage and go straight to a bike. Yesterday we found the perfect bike for him. He was a natural! He spent all day biking around the neighborhood and only took one spill - luckily it was into a bush!
We enjoyed watching him have so much fun. He rode his bike until it got dark. He threw the biggest fit when we brought him inside and got him ready for bed. Then he cried for over an hour before he finally fell asleep. Wouldn't you know, the first thing he said to me this morning was, "Go pedal my new bike."
