Christmas greetings!

Our Alex has been waiting for Christmas already months. There is something about that joy that children are projecting to our lives.

Alex's first children's rhyme in English

Our time in Jerusalem

We spend five days in Israel in the end of October. Three full days we were touring biblical sites. It was great - we enjoyed that so much! Here we are sitting on Hulda's steps which used to led to the Temple mount.

Alex's first running event


Look at the number 211... it's Alex. Alex won a Belgian waffle and a cup of strawberries... as did everybody else who participated :) Yet the best part was the fun that both Alex and his parents had.

lauantai 13. helmikuuta 2010

Recently we were at the weddings and Alex was wearing his tie. Unfortunately Belgium winter was so cold that he had to were also his pullover and tie was almost hidden under it. Well... Alex found an easy solution; pull your tie up and let it be on your pullover rather than under.

Here Alex smiles way after his bed time... when we celebrate we just celebrate without keeping our eye on the watch.

Here is our Alex Richard on his 3rd birthday. We had to lit the candles three times before all cameras were ready for the photo taking... the little fellow is sometimes too fast!
This year we were lucky to have Eero-pappa and Lissu- mummu (grandpa and grandma) among other friends singing "Happy Birthday to you..."
