training wheels off, baby!

a couple of days ago, sena decided that she was ready to take the training wheels off her bike. ed and i helped her, and she was actually able to ride by herself for 20 ft or so at a time. she learned how to break, but still needs a lot of practice balancing and stearing. she had a few falls, to be expected... but overall, she was really excited and proud of herself. here she is:

aiyana, of course, wanted to take her training wheels off too. only one problem though, she's riding a tricycle. she was pretty upset about this. i had to explain that the wheels off her trycicle do not come off. she got it eventually...

i wanted to post another video, where you can see sena crash (i'll do it next time). things got a little crazy, but nobody got hurt, and overall, i laughed more that night than i have in a long time...
