Juf Inge's Vaarwel brief

Het laatste dag van het schooljaar 2010-2011 zit er in.  We hebben allemaal kusjes en knuffels gegeven aan elkaar en zeker aan onze super lief Juf Inge.  Ik heb voor haar een bundeltje tekeningen gemaakt met mama's hulp maar zij heeft ook werk gedaan aan haar vaarwel briefje voor elk vriendje..

Kijk maar eens:

En met mijn heel leuke, ervaringvol, leerzaam eerste schooljaar zal ik haar nooit...zeker nooit vergeten!

En ja hoor Juf Inge, ik zal nog regelmatig zwaaien aan jou!

Aan Juf Inge...DANKU WEL!

Jouw sterretje,

Niels

Father's Day - Vaderdag

Last week was Fathers' day here in Belgium...and this week in Philippines.

So we congratulate EACH and EVERY father in the world, no matter where you are!

And this is what the father of our house got when he woke up last sunday morning...

Gift from Niels and Nina

A folder made for Papa

And a taste of the sweet message our papa got from Niels:

Some funny pictures to share

We would just like to share some funny pictures made in June before July kicks in...

Playing with Arthur (by the neighbor)

Papa's mini herb garden...very healthy garden though!

Ehem...does this need a caption?

Niels' Firsts

Hi All,

Here are some of Niels' firsts and we are very much proud to show you all:

Niels' First Picture-Taking in school
Niels' eerste schoolfoto

Niels and his classmates: Total of 26 children!
Niels en zijn klas: Totaal van 26 kinderen!

And his first matchstick man drawing
En zijn eerste tekening van een man 

Nice huh?  Mooi hé?

Neri

Nina: 8 months and doing great!

Hello you all,

Aside from Nina's 2 existing teeth, and another coming up, her weight is getting heavy and her length is getting longy-longy. 

She is also busy practicing to say "Ma-ma".  Not only that she knows what it means, she uses it 24-7! 

When she wants to be picked up she says..."Maa-mma"
When she is hungry or bored she calls "Maa-mma"
And of course when she wants to get attention...who does she call? "Maa-mma!" of course!

Another activity that excites her these days is "step-step".  We have to run after Niels in a very slow pace...but for Nina, I think she felt like she was running already.  She is so excited everytime we start stepping. 

And now that the park and her bed is lowered to the lowest hook...her next best pal now are the poles of her bed.  She pulls herself up till the point that she is almost standing.  And when she stands, oh boy!  You cant take the smile off her face...she is so proud of what she can accomplish now!  And she enjoys it 300%!

And of course her best living toy is still broertje NIELS!

Hmm...where did Niels go?

What a teddy bear!
