Christmas is coming up!

The view from our kitchen window!

Tys in his Ikea bath tub! He loves it!

At the aquarium in Monterey!

I know it has been a while! And I can't believe how fast the time is going! The last message on this blog was November first! But it feels like it was just a week ago! And today is already December 16th!
We have been busy, but not extremely.. just nice!
The end of November we went on a De Winkle trip to Monterey. It was so much fun! We all sat in the spa together and we went to the aquarium and saw the ocean in cannery row! It was beautiful! We had a blast all together. We celebrated Thanksgiving at Cory and Katie's house. With Dirk and Molly and Arie and Katie's and Molly's parents. It was a lot of fun and the food was outstanding!! Amazing!
Last week Thursday and Friday we were in Salt Lake City with Justin, Siska and Logan. There was a DFA-Young Cooperators conference. It was fun and we learned some things, but unfortunately Tys got sick. He was throwing up and not so very happy.. Poor guy... It only lasted for 24 hours, so that was good. And Saturday he was just the old, happy Tys again!
He is in the process of learning how to crawl! He has four teeth already, so I bought him his first toothbrush and yummy fruit flavored toothpaste! (save for babies ofcourse!)
This morning he woke up from his nap, so I went to go get him. And I was surprised to find him sitting up straight in his crib! Now it's really time to lower that mattress!
It seems he's learning something new every day!

Well, the winter finally came! There's a bunch of snow and it's about 20 degrees today! COLD! So, Rudi stays pretty busy with this kind of weather! Me and Tys just like to look at the snow through the window! :)

Some other exciting news is that Peter and Miriam are expecting another baby in June 2009!

I will try to update the blog more often! Hopefully even before Christmas! Keep checking in and don't hesitate to leave a comment!

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!!
