Bella and Milla ....


Last weekend, Bella, Ingrid, Wanda, Heidi and Jim came to visit us for the day! It was a fun day despite the rainy weather! Milla and Bella had a lot of fun together and Bella was a proud little baby mum for Milla! Too cute!





Santa Claus is coming into town ...


... and brought a trike for Milla! Santa indeed came to visit our house (thank you Santa!) and Milla was really scared by his appearance and was clinging closely to Mama and Papa! Pascale, do you recognize her dress? She also really likes the Papa Noel book :-)









Milla's first snow!!!

Right in time for Christmas it started snowing heavily in New York! Over night, we had 10 inches of snow! Milla was surprised but happy to start this new experience ... unfortunately it did not last very long! Hopefully we will have more snow this Winter!




Christmas time in NYC!


Isn't it pretty! Below some snapshots of New York preparing itself for Christmas!




Playground on some sunny November days!

Milla has more and more fun on the playground! Enjoy!!!






St Martin and Pumpkin carving!


A little mix of cultures: we joined the "German house" for Laternenumzug zum St. Martinstag which was a lot of fun. Just that lanterns are not easy to find here, so that we ended up handpainting a chinese lantern. And we also carved our first pumpkins this year ... Milla was very impressed with those creatures ...
