22 of 365 I'm A Big Kid Now

My youngest daughter turned 9 in November. She just learned to ride a bike last weekend. Don't judge...we are very busy and 9 months out of the year it's too freaking hot to do anything outdoors in Texas. The girl can do a mean cartwheel and round off but up until last weekend couldn't ride a bike without training wheels.

She had some money from birthday and Christmas leftover so she wanted a new bike. We have two old bikes from my oldest daughter but who wants to ride an old bike? My husband and I decided since she made such good grades this 6 weeks we would pitch in and pay the difference of the cost of the bike. So here she is on her brand new bike (which now has a flat tire so she's back to riding the old one until daddy goes to the store for a new tube)
