Bike Wreck

Out of nowhere, Cole decided this weekend, he was DONE with training wheels.  Whether we were ready for this or ready to teach him or not...he was READY.  So seriously after just one weekend, he had it mastered.  This is the only video I got of the weekend training session.  But we helped him just a little each day and he was out there practicing every free second he got!  Not too shabby for a kid who just turned 4.  He is so persistent and determined!  

He thought after a week of riding his bike that he was so good, he could get on Carter's and ride it.  Which mostly isn't all bad, but it is a little bigger bike than he needs so he is a tad wobbly at times.

So along with his persistence and determination comes a little riskiness and craziness which leads to this...his first BAD bike wreck. 
I came home from my girls night out and this is what I find sleeping on the couch :(  My poor little boy!  It looked so bad that night, but Cory didn't even give him tylenol or anything.  He slept all night though and seemed his old self the next day at soccer games.  He stayed pretty swollen most of the day but by Sunday he was healing well.
This was Monday or Tuesday after the accident on Friday.  Healing just right :)  And of course he wasn't afraid to get back on the bike.  Crazy boy!
