Training Wheels

We finally convinced Max to take those suckers off!
The mere mention of the phrase 'time to take off your training wheels' would lead Max to tears.  We gave him a little slack because he DID break his arm falling off of his bike, but really...he could do it!
So, yesterday, we went on a bike ride as a family.
When we got home, Jeff broke out the tool box, and we anticipated a long evening of running up and down the driveway, bent-over to hold the back of a teeny little seat.  
Well, we tag-teamed it to cut down on back pain, but...
he only needed about 20 minutes.  
what a rock star!

 he feels like he's king of the world, and is hell-bent on teaching our neighbor Salma how to do it, too.
here's our boy in action:
