After Anouk's Dutch grandmother left, her German grandparents arrived. Similar to the previous visit, they also arrived with an entire suitcase full of gifts and presents for our baby-girl. Besides enough clothes, Anouk now owns her own little library with books in German, one in Dutch and others in English. Multi-cultural girl!
The grandparents are clearly enjoying Anouk and she seems to have a good time with them. She grew quite a bit in the last couple of weeks and she started 'talking' (we are just not sure which language she is actually talking in...).
Grandma had knitted a hat for the 'cold' winters in San Francisco (or maybe more for our trips to Tahoe), but Anouk still needs some time to grow before this one will fit. Meanwhile grandma and mom are knitting more stuff (baby clothes are great to knit, because of their fairly small size, they go super fast).
We also met up with Shannon who had visited Europe with us in 2007. Shannon was thrilled to see that Anouk's hair looks kind of reddish and gave us a little preview of how Anouk might look once her hair grows longer.
For my mom's birthday, we went to Wine Country and enjoyed great weather, nice company and good wine.
The next change of grandparents is coming up again as the Dutch grandmother decided to come back and help us out for close to another two months. She will be surprised to see how much Anouk has changed since she left four weeks ago...

Cool giant baby hat! Even Anouk appears dubious of its utility at this point.
Adorable. I'm so excited that Anouk's hair is looking red :)
