The most conventional thing for many of you lucky folks out there... 
(and yes, I know my belly's hanging out. You try and hold >20 kilos (40+ lbs) of wiggly kids, all look cute and have your clothes all sitting in the right place).
...is very unique for us:
Oma came to babysit for an afternoon!
And a good time was had by all
Of course no afternoon is complete without a bit of footy in the park
with Kyo
and running about the monument
A joyful reunification after the long separation 
(all of 2 hours)

Then some more random events from the past few weeks...
A well-deserved Thursday afternoon break for mr. and miss. cookie monster.11 November is St. Martin (yes, another fête), and this is a kind of 'trick or treat' for all Dutch kiddies (not just the ones who tote this as their middle name), minus the outfits but armed with self-made lanterns and songs.
Here is Emile on his very first active Sint Maarten. We (read: mama) sang songs at 3 houses (Kyo's, ours, and Moby's), before Emile had had enough. Plenty of candies though!A little r&r for an m&m
(readin' & relaxing)Petit artiste. Now making valiant attempts at coloring inside the lines
(sort of).
Very cute.The most sparkly brown eyes in Amstelveen
And for dessert...raspberries!

Oh, aren't they GORGEOUS!!! (purely objective, mind you!) You have some very nice photos there, Mama, and I don't mean just those Oma made. You're doing very well.
Loved Holly's face when you told her your Mom came to baby-sit for an hour!
Thank you for the new pics. They are like water to a thirsty man, as it were!
All my love, Maman
Oh my goodness what a LOT of pictures!!! Thank you. Celine is SOOO cute and cuddly! Wish we could give her big raspberry kisses. Good to see that she is already getting her teeth into a good Sandra Boynton book. And I see that Emile is already teaching her the joys of COOKIES! What a good big brother he is. Good boy for going on the potty... soon he will be in big boy underwear (and asking for EMNEMS all the time!)
Thank you for all the pictures... now go take a break!!!
