A new bicycle

So today is Joubert's birthday and we bought him a new bicycle. He has completely outgrown the old one and was starting to look like a circus act whenever he was on it! Off course we had to get up and go outside at the crack of dawn in order for him to try out his new wheels. If any of the neighbours were awake, I'm sure they were wondering what the hell was up with three of us standing in the road in our pajamas, watching the fourth tentatively peddling up and down the street...

Beautiful sky at dawn (should actually go outside more often just to witness more of this!)


Still sleepy, but proud


Coming back


...and up again

Happy Birthday to Joubert. Hope he enjoys the bicycle and my the ground not suddenly come up to meet his face.

Great sky photo. You are right. We all should go outside in the late afternoons and early mornings more often to experience these kind of sights.

He looks so proud of himself! I'm very impressed that he rides without fairy wheels!

Fantastic stuff! I can almost get lost in the dreamworld kids live in looking at those pics. Especially the tones in the last one - simply wonderful.
