School's out for the summer!

.
Hi! It's me, Finn - just thought I would update you on what we are up to these days. We both had our last day in Kindergarten and Zwergelpark (preschool and playschool) on July 29th and now Lily and I will be home with Mama until mid-September. It's great! We are doing lots of fun things, like

painting

making cool animals with iron-on beads



or cutting out pictures, coloring in our coloring books, and of course playing with our toys.

Sometimes we dress up to go out, but we have to plan in a bit more time to get ready because Lily wants to do everything "BY HERSELF"! She is such a big girl (she thinks).



I really like playing with the little lego pieces for big boys now, so Mama had a great idea. She took Lily and me to IKEA where she bought some things and then Papa and I went to work! We built a lego table for me!



I love it!


And Lily got this big wooden table for her playmobil. It is so much nicer than playing on the floor.


Sometimes Lily needs a little snooze during the day, but most days she doesn't nap anymore. I think Mama likes it, because now Lily goes to bed with me and is not up until 10 or 11 at night.

I love staying home with Lily and Mama. I can sleep in and we can all have breakfast without Mama telling me to hurry up all the time.

Most mornings we go to our little bakery after breakfast. Mama buys fresh milk and bread and we ALWAYS ask her to buy us candy. Maybe if we just keep asking she will say yes one day?


The other day we were SOOOO hungry after that LOOOONG walk ALL the way to the bakery, so we HAD to have a snack. Lily picked a wiener and I asked the lady for a bun with salami. She put LOTS of slices on, yummy!


If the weather is nice we spend a lot of time outside. We love our little sandbox!


Sometimes I help Mama with the laundry, she really likes that.

One of our favorite treats: popsicles!

Lily still loves her tricycle.


And I often help Papa spread out that leaf pile with my tractor. :)


We've had quite a bit of rain and cool weather lately, and even Mama refusing to fill up the pool for us can't stop us from going for a swim! Who says you can't have fun in a rainwater puddle?
