Since Christmas when Santa brought Novalee a new (bigger) bicycle she has been using her training wheels again.
A week and a half before the parade I thought it was time for Novalee to give biking without her training wheels another shot.
Boy did she throw a huge stink about it. She claimed she was still too little, the bike too big and that she was not READY!!!
But I refused to give in and took them off anyways.
When she finally got on the bike after a few embarrassing moments of her chewing me out in the driveway, she quickly realized that she was ready.
In fact I don't think she fell down and got hurt once. (Another time when I used the situation to my advantage and said, "See Novalee. You just have to TRUST Mommy." To which she reluctantly apologized and agreed that I was right).
The bike parade went great! She did amazing at staying up and I'm sure she felt very proud of herself!
They are so cute!
This last Saturday was Parent's Day at the place where Novalee does her gymnastics.
Novalee got there right when it was about to start (thanks to her Awesome mom). ;) And for some reason she was the first one to go show off her stuff.
Here is a video of her going around the obstacle course.
She was fantastic! This is actually a video of her on her third run but she just went out there, busted out her moves and stood up proud and waved to the crowd. It was really great to see!
And she got a trophy. (All the participants did). But she doesn't know that. :)
Good job Novalee!
