A lot of fun in the snow

The last couple of days it has been snowing and especially today there has fallen a lot of snow. The only thing you must do is to make sure you have a lot of fun in the snow....

Gaizka's Christmastree

Now that Gaizka is more than two years old, he understands the concept of Christmas just enough to enjoy this time of year with all the lights, the trees and the decorations.
So this year Gaizka got his own tree to design.....

At the carwash

Gaikza is most of the times a brave guy, with little fear for jumping and crashing. But he can get a little bit scared of humming sounds, electric vacuums, and the sort.
At the carwash he enjoyed looking around, untill the big brushes came along the car with their rattling sound. I have to agree, it is a little bit scary. later we found a way of sending the cleaning rolls away. We just said: "weg!" (go away!) it worked.

first shot at H1N1

This is a serie of pictures of the morning we went to Ahoy Rotterdam to vaccinate Iker Alvaro and Gaizka Wibo against the influenza virus H1N1 aka "mexican flu"
It went okay in a very rainy morning. We were wondering if the kids would catch a cold from the rain...
In the Netherlands this has been a huge national health operation, with massive vaccinations for risk groups and children.
So, we still have to go for the second shot in a couple of weeks!

Autumn in Rotterdam

Gaizka is playing with the leaves and running through them

Throwing the leaves around

Exploring them.......

Then he decides he want to transport all of them to another location......

I think it is time to move along....

Gaizka is biking around in Rotterdam; be aware!

When Gaizka became 2 years old we gave him a 'walking bike' : Firstbike (see our post in october).
We had to use a special tool to downsize the bike ust a little bit, because he is not too tall.....
But in a couple of weeks time he bikes around like a motorbiker!! He started by just walking on the side of the bike just a couple of weeks ago. It is amazing how quick children learn.
