Marken

Lieve is spending the weekend with her grandparents and we decide to visit some well known tourist towns that we've have never been to before. It's nice to find out that your own country is beautiful!

Driving through what used to be sea

typically Dutch, cows and windmills

More horses in Maartensdijk

Playdate with Siem and Cobien

Today we are visiting Siem, who was born only three days after Lieve, for the first time. It is funny to see two toddlers that are so similar in their development and are exactly the same height. And best of all, they like each other!

Siem, Cobien and Milan have a lot of animals in their 'farm'

feeding the chicken and searching for eggs

Cobien and Lieve

For the first time; riding a horse, just a tiny bit too exciting for the little one..

Happy B'day daddy!

Very early Birthday breakfast!

Horsie swimming

As a result of Lieve's fascination with horses, Rody is subjected to all kinds of interesting games. This week's favourite; horsie swimming (in our front yard)

Playing with Peter's sister, Lideke

Reading her new book; who pooped on my head?
