Two Wheels and Shirley Temples


Will has been asking to try to ride his bike without training wheels for a couple of weeks, so yesterday, we went over to Nana and Pop's, took off those training wheels, and set Will loose!  


He did great! Just a few wobbles and tumbles, of course.  


But he really got the hang of it!  Will still needs some more practice but he's on the way to riding on just two wheels.


And are you at all surprised that Henry also wanted to try riding without training wheels? This was his very first go. He's a natural.


Go, Henry, go!


By this time, it was after 4 o'clock and Pop declared it cocktail hour. Will and Gene had been listening to an NPR program in the car about cocktails, so Will immediately starting asking about them. Pop led them to the bar and proceeded to make the boys their very first Shirley Temples!







Mocktails for my boys!


They know real cocktails are only for grown-ups, but they sure enjoyed their Shirley Temples in grown-up glasses.


What a fun way to celebrate riding without training wheels!
