biker dude

For Lane's birthday we promised him a bike. A bike with 2 wheels. That he could ride outside. And every time his response was to say that he wanted a bike helmet. It got to the point where we started to wonder if we could get away with just getting him the helmet.

Finally, after WAY too many months of snow, the mountains of snow melted, the water ran away and the sidewalk was clear enough to contemplate letting a 4 year old out with a bike. Off to the store went dad and his big boy. An hour later they came home with this:

A very happy boy.

Notice the white thing hanging down from the handle bars?
The kid couldn't wait for us to take the warranty/safety info off
the bike before he rode it...

A happy boy that tells me consistently that he loves his bike. And even kisses the silly thing. And the helmet? Well, lets just say that bike riding is just one of many uses it sees.
