2 wheelin Dallan

Dallan has finally learned to ride his bike without training wheels. It was fun to see Dallan get so excited to want to ride without training wheels. He has been fighting us about not taking off his training wheels, so Matt and I decided not to push anymore and when he was ready he would do it. A couple days ago he told Matt that he wanted to ride his bike without training wheels so he could be a big boy and ride his bike to school. Matt told him that would never happen we live to far from the school but we could drive him closer and then let him out to ride his bike. Dallan got so excited. Our next challenge was the bike Dallan had was way to small to learn everytime he pedaled his knees would touch his chest. So we went to look for a new bike. Dallan wanted of course a expensive bike I did not want to buy, I told him if he wanted that bike we needed to save our money a little longer and he needed to wait. He was sad but was willing to take a bike that was less expensive. Matt preceded to tell him we could go look at another store to see if the one he wanted was cheaper. Of course no luck so we went home to look on the internet for better prices. Dallan disappeared for a little while and can back with his bank. Dallan wanted to pay for the rest of the price of the bike I was not willing to pay for. What a big kid he is getting to be so we counted out the difference and Dallan helped to make his first big purchase. I think it makes Dallan more appreciative of his new bike he helped pay for. It took Dallan a little while to save his money and he didn't realize how fast it was spent when it took so long. He was sure questioning how he could save up that much money again really soon. I love life lessons Dallan gets to learn that are fun to watch. I will post pictures when I get some all I have is video right now.
