Like Ruby, Ada's first bike was a balance bike. She had looooooong outgrown it by the time she got her new big girl bike for Christmas. The bike Santa brought was a 2-wheeler. She was able to skip training wheels (just like Ruby) because of the amazing balance bike. I highly recommend going that route, it's SO worth the extra money for the balance bike. Our girls are not the most athletic, but neither had any problem learning to ride a bike.
Ada took her new bike for it's first spin on Christmas morning. As you can see in the video, she was a little nervous but did pretty good. The second clip is from the day we got back to Texas and she was able to ride without help! Starting and stopping took a couple days, but about a week later she was a pro. It's so fun watching her ride, but I can't believe my baby is riding a bike!
