Chickpea's new trick

Chickpea totally earned the right to have the blip of the day. She learned something brand new and she was beaming! Unfortunately we couldn't get a shot that wasn't blurry as she was going so darn fast so we will have to try again on another day and you get Monkey getting muddy again. :)

Chickpea learned to ride her pedal bike today! I was surprised she got it so quickly as she's only been out on it a couple of times and the last time she wasn't even nearly ready for me to let go. But today, after about 40 feet of me holding on I let go to avoid a mud puddle and she was off! She was giggling the whole time, she absolutely loved it! Luckily, we got a video.

I have to say I really recommend balance bikes. We never went with stabilizers and it did really help with balance. Chickpea fell once today when she didn't have the steering down but that was it!
