holiday snapshot overload

It's always difficult trying to choose a few photos from the hundreds we take on holiday, so I don't mind if you skim through the 3 blogs beneath this, really fast! There isn't much else to say except he had a ball! He loved being spoilt by anny and butta, he loved exploring their house, driveway, garden and complex, he loved playing at Postnet, he loved swimming, he loved Rosie and GG and he especially loved the cats = 'kitty-kitty'! That said, he was also very happy to be home and see oma and opa and Max, sleep in his own bed and go back to school...

my favourites of Nin-nin and 'anny'

'Anny' is what Dylan calls his granny. She got up every morning at 6 or earlier when he woke up. She bought him presents, took him for walks, showed him the Hadeedahs (big birds!), they played on her pilates ball, they drove cars around, they jumped on the trampoline, they cuddled, they tickled, they...

'butta'

I have no idea why Dylan says calls grandpa ' butta'.

Here he is on one of his adventures with 'Butta'. Everytime Dylan came to Postnet, they would fetch a little trolley, then go for a walk to the lift, call the lift, get in and go down a level, walk around there and then come backup to the shop... preferably more than once.

play-play, play-play

Here are a couple of photo's of the cats, Dylan followed them around all day and when he decided they had been sleeping for long enough, he would wake them up so they could play-play.

Car obsession.

Outside!

from ice cream to ice cold in a few days

Dylan was swimming in the pool and eating ice cream a few days ago in Jo'burg. After a long flight we're back in Rotterdam, where it's cold.

Dylan and I visited the kinderboerderij this morning, both warmly dressed.

he was very impressed with the big pig. and the pig was grunting, just like dylan!

lovely sunny days

The weather has been great since we got to SA and Dylan has managed to have a swim just about every day so far.

swim, swim,

make tea,

over my head,splash like mad,hello fissss(h)neeeeee, papa out!brrr, warm up with 'ganny'

Nelson Mandela square

We went to Sandton today to shop. We stopped for lunch at Nelson Mandela square, where Dylan got to play with the big fountain in the middle of the square.

the big statue of Nelson Mandela was quite interesting too, so that deserved a closer look
wow, that is big!

don't leave me behind

Dylan was very impressed when we pulled out the suitcases today. 1 for mama, 1 for papa and trunki for Dylan. We are off to the airport in a couple of hours; off to sunny, warm SA!
