Watching television

On this picture both Lisa and Bridget are watching television. They are watching Dora the Explorer.

Zoo

Today we went to the zoo. After the arrival we had a cup of tea and Bridget got her bottle of milk.

After the cup of tea we visited the animals. We saw the giraffes, the sealions, elephants and the prairie dogs.

Of course there was also some time to play in the playground.

Fun in the playpen

Bridget is moving more and more, she rolls to her side a lot and with a little help (put her hand down properly), she rolls on her tummy as well.

Growing

Today, Bridget had to go to the child care clinic. She was measured and weighed. She is 6590 grams and 64 cm now. I also made a chart with both Lisa and Bridget's growing scheme of the first year, it is almost the same

Merry go round

Today, the creche Lisa and Bridget attend, celebrates its 5th anniversary. There is a lot to do, horse riding, eating pancakes and popcorn and of course there is a merry go round. Lisa loves it as you can see.......

Lisa & Bridget

Bridget is becoming a 'big' girl. On the second picture she is sitting 'relaxed' in her maxi-cosi until we are all ready to go out. I couldn't resist getting a picture of Lisa when she was about the same age....

Ameland

Last weekend we visited one of the Dutch islands, Ameland. On the photo on the right you can see Lisa sitting in the sun on the deck of boat going to the island.

Saturday we rented bikes and cycled around the island
we even had a special trailer for Bridget with a built-in maxi-cosi. We didn't go that far with Bridget, it was to tiring for her.
There was a small playground in the bungalowpark where we stayed with a see-saw and a swing both Lisa and Bas refused to leave. On Sunday the Dutch soccerteam was "supported" playing in the world championships, we brought some orange goodies.

Because it was very warm that afternoon, Lisa and Bas played in the swimmingpool for a while. Especially making eachothter wet is great fun.
It was a nice weekend.

Painting

Yesterday we went to the woods for some wandering. Lisa found a few pinecones. These had to be painted today. The result is lovely.

Bathing

	Sundaymorning, both girls are having their bath. They enjoy this a lot....
Bridget lies on her tummy , Mama just dried her and is going to dress her.

Sisters

At these pictures both Lisa and Bridget are 4 months old. The picture of Bridget has been made this morning and to compare both girls at the same age, I also have placed a picture of Lisa. They are two different girls.

To the creche

On Monday en Thusrday, Lisa and Bridget go to the creche. So today they go as well. Lisa loves it there and really likes to play with her friends Thijs and Wessel. Since four weeks Bridget also attends the creche, she is part of the babygroup. Today, one of the creche employees took a few pictures.

To the child care clinic

Today, Bridget had to go to the child care clinic for a vaccination. Her reaction on the injection is totally different to Lisa 3 years ago, instead of crying she was laughing about it!! In three weeks time we have to go for the regular visit, then she will be measured and weighed as well. Mama also took a few pictures, as you can see, Lisa likes to pose with Bridget.

Sunday at opa & oma

Yesterday we went to see opa and oma Abee. Also this time they went shopping for Lisa and Bridget. Lisa got a nice 'watch' and a orange t-shirt ( for the worldchampionships soccer coming June) and Bridget got a nice musicbox and Miffy toy. Both girls were very pleased with their gifts.

Oma also made a fine dinner, spaghetti. Lisa really loves this, especially with grated cheese. After dinner it was time to go home.

To the city center

This afternoon Lisa goes to the city center with papa, they go on the bike. Of course Lisa prefers to go on her own bike, but the city center is too far and it is too dangerous to cycle for her. That's why she goes in the backseat of papa's bike.... Papa can do the cycling.... And with the dutch wheather, they bring their raingear as well. Bye bye mama.......

In bed

This morning, before the girls had their bath, they were in Lisa's bed for a while. They enjoyed themselves as you can see.

Ascention Thursday

Today we went to see Opa and Oma Abee. That's always great fun, because Oma has always a new toy or something old from the attic where Mama used to play with when she was Lisa's age. Lisa also likes to play with her cousin Bas when we are there. Bridget is too young to play with them, but likes to watch them.

Lisa's hobbies

Lisa is a creative girl. She really likes to draw and tinker. Watching television is also a great thing to do. At this moment she is really into Dora the Explorer. If the weather is good, Lisa likes to go outside, especially on her new bike, which she has got for her third brithday.
