Finlay Hendrik: Februar 2012

Cold!

It has gotten remarkably cold here in the past week. Here is Finlay on Friday next to a heater in our apartment, reading one of his books out loud to the cat. And here is Finlay this morning trying on new footwear, which almost fit him, since he is wearing two pairs of thick socks...

Lions!

Finlay has a thing for lions...

Visit from Jupp

Finlay's grandfather was here last week for a few days. Here are Finlay and his grandfather - playing with spoons, making frowning faces and enjoying a trampoline outside nearby. Thank you Jupp!

Finlay and toys

Here is Finlay with his stuffed dog and rabbit, both wearing hats because it is cold, watching an aquarium with little moving fish. In the other picture, Finlay is wearing his growly bear costume and getting a bandaid from Oma.

Finlayfood!

Finlay's various meals recently - sausages, sushi, mango and Berlin "Bouletten" - little hamburgers.

Finlay does 50s decor very well!

Finlay and Oma Annaliese

Here is Finlay with his great-grandmother Annaliese Werner between Christmas and New Years in Göttingen.

Who is calling, please?

Finlay and a workbench!

Finlay got a workbench for Christmas (shades of his grandfathers here...). Here he is fixing things (on the bed with Jupp) and generally enjoying the workbench.

A visit from Annette!

And Leander (here) and Dieter and Lara, just before Christmas. I think they are puzzling (one of Finlay's gavourite activities). The socks here were a kind gift from Annette as well - each one contained a small toy or chocolate for Finlay in the days leading up to Christmas. Thank you Annette! The socks are coming in handy during the cold winter months.
