It's a two wheeled world

My daughter finally convinced herself to be potty trained. Yay!

Unlike most kids, she did not go through a transition phase. Once she decided that it was worthwhile, she immediately stopped wearing diapers. Even at night. Not a single accident at night either, which I find absolutely amazing. As her reward, we bought her a bicycle as promised. She is incredibly good at riding it already. She is a fantastic athlete. Coaches be warned. Recruiting efforts should start now!



Trevor was feeling a bit put out about how good Megan was doing on her bike. Seems that was just the motivation he needed. We dusted off his unused bicycle, and within a day, he learned how to start, stop, and ride all over the back yard unassisted. Amazing. A great week indeed.

I had to go to San Francisco for the majority of the week, but would talk to Trevor each night and ask if he learned how to ride standing up on the pedals yet. He hadn't. But my wife told me the next day that Trevor started getting up early in the morning and was practicing riding before school. How cool is that!



As of Saturday, he is up on the pedals and able to hill climb. He has achieved mobility, and we have thrown away the diaper pail. Life is good :-)
