Ohhh, some of my most fave colours!!!! Since I have 2 weeks to do this challenge, it might be slightly better than my last submission. Looking good Tyler - way to go! Did anyone notice that Jayden’s hat has some of the colours of this weeks challenge? Well, I’m off to finish the kitchen cleanup but I’d rather be doing something else.

LOVE’n the pics!!!
WTG Tyler!!! and Jayden, yup -totally adorable! 
We’re working on the same thing here - we took a different approach: Dawson kept leaning too much so we took the pedals off and he’s been learning to keep his balance, he’s doing AWESOME - so next the pedals go back on!
we just need more GREAT spring sunshiney warm days!!
