back in our own backyard

at home we enjoy holidays the best... i mean, really! and the folks can take a break too... finally.

cruising the national park

we biked around an entire day and i loved it so much, i was singing all the time. but ye bun continuously fell asleep on the back seat of the bike.

around the veluwe

the open air museum with a fantastic candy shop, the zoo and an excellent chinese restaurant.

glass house

mom's friends arnout and anja live near the tiny house. arnout is a glass designer so there's glass all over the place. but hey, i'm not touching anything... don't worry!

My turn!

Mom was home for a few days but she had to go back to the hospital last night because the bood tap was opened again. This time she's sorting out the summer holiday's pictures and it's my turn to say something.

Ye Bun and I have been wondering what the folks were talking about when they planned the 'vakantie'. What is 'vakantie'? They said they had to stay around, not far from the hospital and not too long because of mom's condition. Now we know that vakantie means something like staying in a primitive tiny house, eating out every night. We had a good time though...

holding the baby when it comes out of her belly.

real dutch daddy

biking with the two of us makes him really proud. korean daddy's can't do it.

exploring the intratuin

i can write very well

hold on... i'm almost done filling out all the pages of mom's agenda, keeping track of her appointments.

my funny sister

she's so entertaining... i love her!

new sand pool

well done daddy! good job!!!

circuit training

we had a good workout!

spring is here

we love to play outside. the see-saw is at the playground of mom's elementary school. perhaps hyo shin and i will attend the same school.

onni's visit

she came to visit with her mother (a friend of my mother) all the way from korea. luckily for me, she brought heaps of ozingo, my favorite snack. delicious!!!

my third birthday

it was great, also at the kindervilla where they made this lovely hat for me. however, i can't stand it i'm only 3 years old now... i wish i was at least 5 years old.

hyo shin's been living large

and her company is becoming more fun for me. she has a good sense of humor although she's extremely stubborn.

finally...

mom's is in the hospital as the baby in her belly caused a tsunami of blood the other day. that's very sad but the good news is that she now has finally found some time to sort out the pictures of last half year. also my birthday pics... it's a bloody shame! so many things have happened since, i'll try to fill in the gaps as much as i can.

kleine bertje 4-26-2008

at the time of this first picture of kleine bertje, we coudn't see anything. by now, mom's belly is quite impressive. bertje has to stay there some more time but i'm talking to him every day. actually i would have preferred a trampoline or at least a kitten or a puppy but apparently only human baby's can grow in mom's belly.
