Just 2 Wheels

Recently we got Aiden his first “big boy” bike with no training wheels. However, teaching a kid to ride and running along side of them hunched over didn’t sound like any fun for the parents.

On his first try he was riding without me holding on. Since then we have been practicing and he has become quite good. The bike is bigger and heavier than his last so starting and stopping on his own is difficult. Other than that I just ride behind him ready to catch bar if he starts to fall.

Aiden’s Robots in Space Bedroom

Quite some time ago I posted inspiration for Aiden’s room when he told me that he wanted a “Robots in Space” bedroom. Just a couple of days ago I posted an article, Parenting Through Art Direction.  I finally finished his room and  Aiden is definitely an “Ikea kid”.
