Sleep-over Guests

P1060564

This is Warner. He is Tobias’ girlfriend Cathérine’s little brother. His is a bit older than Lorelei and just a week-and-a-half ago he came over and spent a couple of nights with us (and so did Cathérine). Tobias and Cathérine had had a sleep-over before, but Lorelei and Warner were not part of it at that time. Both Lorelei and Warner were somewhat upset about that, so, we promised that next time they could have a sleep-over as well. Well, this time it was a good one, because the spent three nights with us (while their parents were away :-)).

We had a nice time, because they all play so well together. And, they mingle as well. We spent quite some time at home and basically they all played in their rooms a lot. We also went to a playground and all four of them played together. It was really nice, both for us and the kids!

Lorelei was so excited and a bit sad when they left. She said the next morning: “When can Warner come again? Tomorrow?” :-).

Egg

I was not there so I did not experience this moment first-hand, but I love this picture. It was taken at the Blijdorp Zoo towards the end of the summer vacation. Lisa went there with a friend and the kids and they had a great time. Lorelei was talking about this egg when I got home and she laughs when she sees this picture. I do too :-).

Reading

Lorelei has always loved books and she still does. This picture shows it. If it is up to her she will read every day, and it really doesn’t matter if she reads by herself or is read to… books are fun! I love that about her and I hope she keeps that up.

That’s really all there is to this picture. She was so cute sitting there with her book that I just had to take a picture… Hope you like it :-).
