My first 'Wiebeltanden'

And finally, in the midst of all this summer 2012 rumble, I lost two of my baby teeth in one go! (So I got two new books as a present from the tooth fairy ;-)

The other holiday

Apart from the big home improvement job we pulled of this summer - it wasn't really all that bad - we had loads of fun and sun. We stayed first in our neighbor's home which was cool and then we moved in with Paul for a 3 week holiday in Amsterdam's infamous 'grachtengordel' city centre. We did lots of day trips and quick city escapes to nearby beaches and the swimming pool so it was all the water and sun fun a boy could've wished for! For grandma's birthday we even went to the best zoo in the world with the biggest playground ever in Arnhem. Here's some snaps of all that!

Holiday Master Plan

How was your holiday? Mine was extreme! In stead of lounging on far and away exotic beaches mom decided to re-do our home! Meaning a: a brand new bedroom for me, and b: changing the rest of the house to make that possible. It was a total domino effect leading up to us evacuating the place for six weeks and having all these men working there every day to make everything from scratch (Thank you Stef, Joren, Pieter Paul, Victor, Hassan and also the packers Elle, Peter, Joff's mommy Juanita and the movers Paul, Gert, Jessica, Karen and Kyle). Even though it was a challenge - mom had to hoover around the house almost every day, Monkey had to sleep in a garden hut and spend almost all nights alone, and I played so much soccer in the street that it may just have started my career as a lefty in the field - the result is pretty awesome! Mom even painted my LEGO cabinet in the same Farrow & Ball color plan as my new room with the orange details... She rocks ;-)
