| Seasons greetings, everybody. So much has happened in the last three months! |
 |
| First of all, mom and dad took me on some great walks around Belgium in the fall! |
 |
| As the days went by, I got bigger and bigger... . |
 |
| ... at some point, I didn't fit in my plastic bucket anymore... |
 |
| ... so mommy and daddy finally bought me a real bath tub! |
 |
| Not only am I getting bigger, but my first little teeth stubs are starting to poke through. To celebrate the occasion, I have posted here a short homage to my toothless grin as it won't be around much longer... |
  |
 |
| In October, I helped my dad celebrate his 34th birthday... |
 |
| ... and he read me a bed-time story. |
 |
| Shortly after, I had my first Halloween. They don't celebrate Halloween very much in Belgium, but I still dressed for the occasion. |
 |
As fall turned to winter, things started to really cool down. |
 |
| Pretty soon, it was so cold that mom and dad bundled me up in this much-hated device. |
 |
| As you can see, it is quite appalling... |
 |
| ... but it keeps me warm through the cold winter. .. |
 |
| In December, Uncle Joris and Tante Lien gave birth to my new little cousin, Finn. I hope we grow up to be great friends! |
 |
| I'll even let him borrow my mom sometimes so she can be his god-mother. |
 |
| All this mothering, god-mothering, and being a good auntie is tough work, so I like to help her out with some of the household chores. |
 |
| Here I am with dad on the way to my very first Christmas Market in Antwerp! |
 |
| Our friends, Mark and Sarah, joined us for our visit! |
 |
| Here I am getting a fresh nappy and re-fueling with Sarah , as we warm up in a cozy cafe to prepare for another Christmas Market hot wine and binge-eating experience. |
 |
 |
| I spent Christmas with my Belgian family in Eernegem. As you can see, the whole gang was there! |
 |
| A Champagne toast to wish everyone... |
 |
| ... a very merry Christmas... |
 |
| ... and a happy new year. |
