2 wheels

Marko took Dylan's side wheels off his bike yesterday. It took Dylan a few minutes to get the hang of it and then off he went.

Wobble, wobble,

watch out for the wall!

Aha, that's how I do it.

I did it!

How pleased am I!?

This was taken about 15 minutes later!

By the afternoon I couldn't keep up with him any more, he was racing up and down -with his eyes closed!- like a maniac. He now wants to know if we can cycle on 1 wheel!

Travis was getting a little heavy for the baby carrier... this is how he travels to school now!

bringing the boys to school

Travis started his 'school' in november, so now i bring two boys twice a week. here's me cycling to the creche

Travis seems to like the outdoors and Dylan is real proud his little brother goes to school as well

mama, mag ik op mijn fiets?

It stormed all of last night and has been raining for most of today!

new bicycle chair

About a year ago I posted 2 photos of Dylan and Marko on the bike, when Dylan was a baby and when he was about 1 year. Here he is these days:

ready for number 2

Among the things you need to get ready for baby number two, fixing another chair on my new bike was one of them. Dylan wasn't impressed when I sat him down behind me, but I am ready to cycle around town with two kids now!

I want to ride my bicycle...

It's just about the first thing Dylan wants to do when he wakes up in the morning, and in the afternoon, and every moment in between. In fact, I think he would take it to bed with him at night too if we let him but he settles for (very proudly) parking 'my big bike' in between mama's and papa's big bikes in the shed.

my fiets!

We spent Saturday in Rockanje at the camping with Oma and Opa (and Sander, Wendy, Manon and Rosalie) and had an early mother's day celebration. Dylan especially enjoyed himself because Opa and Oma had a bicycle for him and because 'Nanon' was there! When he wasn't following Manon around, he was PUSHING his bike around. I did manage to get one photo of him sitting on his bike though, thanks to Manon insisting he get on it. Unfortunately I didn't have my camera ready on Sunday when he got on and showed me how he could cycle on the big bike!! (Ik kan het heel goed mama...) Hopefully a film or at least photos to follow in the next week.

shopping

back from the shop, on our way home with all the groceries.
who needs a car if you can cycle there and back! and cycling is fun when the sun shines.
