Finlay Out and About

This is Finlay today in a new hat we bought him (sunny days and unprotected neck) at H&M, wandering about on a bridge near the "Fishers Island" in Berlin. Later, we ate dinner at Botequim Carioca, which is unfortunately scheduled to close next Saturday. We'll miss them, especially Victor, who has been exceptionally good to us since their opening in 2007. Thank you Victor - Botequim is one of a vey few places we truly regarded as a home for us here. All the best for the return to Brazil!

Wandering around

Silly pictures with maple keys in the park

Finlay at the door!

More sandbox!

Finlay loves this playground toy around the corner from us.

"Bobby car"

I have no idea why, but these little pushcars are called "bobby cars" in Germany. Finlay loves them - especially going down hills and "offroading". We're grateful to the families who use the little park nearby for leaving these out regularly for others to use.

Sandbox!

Before and after photos. Finlay spends a great deal of time in sandboxes (and a great deal of time in the bathtub afterwards).

Mealtime with Finlay

Here is Finlay conducting a symphony of spoons while eating something.

Unicorn!

With some baby pictures, you can immediately see what the child will look like when it grows up. We think Finlay will

Garden Boy

I think this series is for Dean - here's Finlay in a Tübingen garden last weekend enjoying himself and the flowers.

Finlay and Grandparents!

Here is Finlay with his (German) grandmother on a street in Tübingen and his grandfather at a recent visit to a hospital in Tübingen two weeks ago. Nothing serious. Finlay loved visiting the provinces of Germany in the country town of Tübingen.
