On the beach


Yes, that's your happy feet kicking the air. On our first ever vacation with you, we took you to the beach on a hot summer's day. And it was fun. You slept, you drank, you looked around, you even dipped your feet in the great big sea. As if you were thinking: 'I've done it all now', you started whining, so we took you to a beachbar to give you your bottle, clean you up, and - also important - get something to eat ourselves. We thoroughly enjoyed the week by the Northsea with you, despite the discomforts. First of all, we left home with you suffering from a bad diarrhoea. Daddy went to the pharmacy to get some stuff to prevent dehydration, and some cream for your soar little bum. Also you got very obstinate when we offered you your bottles of formula. You only wanted to drink when lying flat (on the floor, on the grass, on the bed etc.). So we're getting used to feeding you this way, moving you upwards after some minutes. But then there's the times you don't wanna drink milk at all. It's tough to discover what the real reason for this change is. Most likely it's the fact that you're teething, which also explains your sudden cries in the middle of the day or night. We have been enjoying you however, despite these little troubles. You've laughed with devotion, learned new things and requited our love for you with a passion. Sometimes we forget that you were born just over six months ago, still a little baby. So much character, so truly YOU!
Well, little one, overall it's been a wonderful week.

Mother's Day


No, they didn't bring me breakfast in bed today, but nevertheless I love them to bits. My big boy, who will be sweet sixteen in 10 days time, and my little one, who just turned four months.

Easter bunny

We tried to get a nice easter picture of our little boy, but as you can see, he's not that into it:-) Never mind, we were glad he was back to his old happy self, after four awful days. Last Wednesday, Flyn got his vaccination, and he had a bad reaction to it. First of he started crying in agony all Wednesday afternoon. Then he screamed each time we put him to bed. Also his arm became red and hot (the shots were in his legs). And the most worrying was the fact that he got very hyper, like we had been putting coffee in his bottle for days! It wasn't until this Monday that he finally recovered. Now he is so relaxed and fun all day, making massive progress in his development. We're so proud of our little man!
