Big Girl Bike

We bought Chloe her first big girl bike with training wheels last week and it has been a huge hit. It is a Barbie bike and it has all the bells and whistles: a bell, basket, streamers for the handle bar and a Barbie sized bike that also attaches to the handle bar so Barbie can ride with her. Chloe loves it, and she loves her new helmet, too. I was worried that she wouldn't want to wear it, but she's all for it!

It was so cute the other day because there were a bunch of neighborhood kids out with their bikes, and they all kept riding up and down the street playing and chasing each other. It has been so much fun already this spring because Chloe is finally playing with the other kids instead of clinging to my side and watching them the whole time. I can't wait until it stays warm all the time and we can play outside all day!

A Barbie bike that attaches too?! Good thing--Barbie needs to work out a little more. ;) Chloe looks so happy, and I am glad she is likin' the helmet. AND that she is having fun with the other kids! That's wonderful.

I love this bike! Looks like Chloe does too! Do you mind me asking where you got it? I want to get Eva one but I haven't seen one yet that I like she can fit but that looks just fine for Chloe. I was thinking about getting a tricycle but I worry she might grow out of it too fast.
