"Boo!" Says the Kangaroo

Hi everyone. Hope you're enjoying this Halloween day. Annelies was in costume this morning for her playgroup and we're going out again this afternoon. She loves being a kangaroo! The other pictures posted are from earlier in the month. Enjoy!

Pretty in Pink

After a year of making the mess, Annelies finally shows a little interest in cleaning up the house!

1st Birthday Fun

Well, it's hard to believe, but Annelies turned one on Friday the 5th. We celebrated on Sunday at our place. She really liked her party and loved hanging out with family and friends. She received loads of cool presents and has spent all of today checking them out! As you can see from the first picture she's pretty much walking- and loving it. She's so proud of herself. (And we're pretty proud, too.) It's amazing to think about how much she's grown in this first year. We hope all is well in your corner of the world- enjoy the birthday pics!

20 people gathered around to sing Happy Birthday didn't seem like a great idea to the birthday girl!

Not too sure about her cake
