Hehe... my very first backpack, just like Dora.

What?! What do you mean I have to carry my own luggage on the plane next month?!

Mama, approx 10 months-ish old.

Daddy, 10 months (hubba hubba).

Xayla, 10 months (November 2005).

Meri, 10 months (early May 2007).

Penguins!!! Thank you so much Uncle Keith!!! And thank you Nannie and Poppie for the movies - I LOOOOVE Chip ´n Dale!

Yes, Mama, I know one is for Meri, I´m just minding it for her.

Still minding it. Penguins need to go potty too, you know.

Um... but...

But... I was still minding it (sob).


I guess one penguin hugs just the same as two penguins.

So... you´re a penguin, huh?

Yaaahhh!!!

Dad was home for FOUR WHOLE DAYS this weekend!!!

I´ve missed you, Papá...

... I can´t wait until we´re all in Amsterdam together. And, um, do you know you have one lone red hair in your beard?

When Dad's here... our weekends are always action-packed...

Tapas in front of the Cathedral...

... followed by some fish feeding...

... at the Port...

... which was sooooooo much fun.

Hmmm... while Dad is occupied...

... going...

... going...

... going...

Oops, slight hiccup in the *gone* part of my plan.

Aahh! Busted!

Hmmm... Mum and her Eagle-eye.

And what´s an outing with Marco without two very sleepy girls...

... at the end of the day.

Sunday, May 20th...

Thank you sooooooo much for the Dora t-shirts, Nannie...

... I looooooooooooove them!!!

Um...

Go to the left...

No, the left, the left...

Your left...

Your other left...

Hang on...

Whew....!
