They can ride bikes!

Training wheels are not all they're cracked up to be. Getting a 5 and 4 year old to get over their fears of riding a bike and learning how to balance isn't easy. So, Steve made them a deal. If they learn ... we will take them to Seattle to go camping and go to the zoo!

They learned much more quickly than we thought they would! Other than a little help to get going, they can ride the entire block by themselves AND stop at the other end. Nothing like a little motivation to accomplish a goal.

So, Seattle, here we come! Now, we just have to figure out when we can make the trek.
