Weekend dinner...

This weekend we invited May and Martijn to come over for dinner. It was nice for them to catch up with Jorrit, Molouk and Nushin who are still staying with us until this Friday. We enjoyed some Persian food that we prepared for the evening and had tea, cake and delicious watermelon afterwards.

Visit to Tando

It is nice that my cousins are visiting us, mommy and I brought them to Tando play center last Friday together with tante Nushin and boy...we have fun together. Although I was a bit sick, we were still able to play together.

Another Rose Garden class...

I went for another Rose Garden class, but this time I brought my two cousins Nadim and Minou with me. It was quite a big class compared from the previous weeks. We welcomed back Rylan, Ruhullah Ardjomandi came again with his parents and their baby Farid, and of course other friends of mine were there as well: Carmel, Rubin, and Layla. It was so much fun, see our photos below...

Pictures at home...

My cousins are here...

My cousins Nadim and Minou are currently visiting the Holy Land with their parents oom Jorrit and tante Molouk, and tante Nushin their aunt. They are soon to start their pilgrimage so they will be here for quite awhile with us. Today we met them at the beach and brought some beach toys and snacks, it was fun playing with them. The last time we were together was nine months ago when I was 10 months old about to start walking that time, so you can imagine how it is now me playing with them. Here are some photos of us playing and running together...



















and here are few old photos, see how much we have grown...
