After our African adventure, we returned to Amsterdam for a month-long stay. The main objective was to hangout with Isla. We stayed at our little Airbnb just around the corner from Meredith and Elliot. Very handy.
Isla loves her rice crackers at Oma and Opa's.
She hides in places that make it really hard to find her.
Isla truly enjoyed our playto building.
Going shopping with Meredith on a cargo bike. It's the family station wagon.
There's always time to relax with Oma.
And do some reading.
Now that we bought a scooter, we have to put it together!!!
The sandbox at Sarphatipark is always a hit.
A puzzling moment at our apartment.

Climbing as high as you can.
In the evening, it's time to get serious and start thinking about dinner. Salmon?
Yeah! I'm REALLY excited, Oma!!!

There's actually some serious work done once in a while. Building a bed for Isla

Building blocks are a lot of fun.
