Exploring the surrounding area where we live

Master Kaemon's First birthday

A visit with the Whitesides!

What a good month.

Coming to get that raisin!!!!

The first contribution after his long absence from the computer screen, and it's a cracker! His father says, exchange the raisin for a football and he's going to make us milions!

Don't knock his style, he's only been walking for a few days!!! Let the record show (as parents will tend to forget these things after a few weeks) that his first steps were 1 year and 1 week after his birth!

We're Back!

Deadlines are past, 14-18 hour working days are over, bring back the days of the lazy housewife!! I've been translating technical documents, assisting the submission of a EU research proposal and it's all over! What's been happening since..... got to first catch up on sleep and then kaemon (he's walking!!) then there'll be a real update!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!

In a sea of undies

an oldie but a goodie...kaemon helping his aunty sufern and mummy pick out bargains at the Bonds undie outlet.

During the mysterious quiet...

kaemon got into the box of tissues, but apparently he needed them!

Frankenstein walks!

Free! Free! Like a bird!

Last friday I had a delicious experience: I have to really really really thank Marjolein for this wonderful (birthday) present which was not just a delicious High Tea but a few baby-free hours!!

Christmas and New year in one go

The christmas and new year of 2007 will (unfortunately) mostly be remembered not for the food or good times, but bu the rabid stomach virus that was doing the rounds and afflicted at least 1 member of every family that I polled, and the one that introduced me (kaemon) to "spuitdiaree" or projectile explosive diarrhoea.
A few days before christmas, there was a beautiful frosting of everything that made things very christmassy.

Road Rage

Still must learn turning, 3-point turning, reversing, rage control!

On the go

Dusseldorf

Thanks to some lovely friends, we scored a 5* hotel stay in Dusseldorf on "germany's most stylish shopping street". They nearly rejected my pink daihatsu applause from valet parking, it was that posh.

The travel crew:

We mainly wallowed in the luxury of the hotel room, ate delicious food at various places, visited family and generally just hung out...

Baby one more time!

Since last year's birthday song was also a britney title (not a girl, not yet a woman) I thought it appropriate to stick with this theme. The meaning has many facets. 1. (having a) Baby? One more time! 2. Yeah baby, one more time! I would do it all over again, as it was lots of fun: We celebrated with lots of friends, food and presents! Thanks for all the birthday wishes in person or not, all was supremely welcome. 3. There weren't many song titles to choose from.
I insisted on 30 blazing candles on my cake, and I was rewarded with a pyrotechnic display not seen before in this village!
