Baby's birthday

As hard as it it to believe, our little great-nephew, Joseph, turned one year old on Thursday! 

We wanted to send a gift for him, but had a hard time deciding. My go-to gift for little kids is books, but I knew that wouldn't mean much to such a young little guy. I wanted something fun.

With that in mind, this is what we decided on.




And for extra fun, we found a cool t-shirt to go with it...


Thursday afternoon, shortly after the gifts were delivered, Tyler (nephew and baby's dad) texted me this photo. Look how happy little Joey looks!


Needless to say, the bike and t-shirt were hits!

    1. I think he's a jolly little guy. His mom and dad are lucky to have a baby with a good, easy temperament! They'd better stop now while they're ahead. :)

  14. Great little bike! Have you heard of " Wicked Uncle"? It is UK based company that does brilliant gifts for kids. I just checked and it seems that they also operate/deliver in USA. You can enter boy or girl, and ages and they show you lots of wonderful items for that age group.
