Holland!

We left Durango on the 6th at 8 am in the morning and arrived in Amsterdam at 9 am the next morning... their time.. for us it was 1 am in the morning , but as you can see we had smiles on our faces and weren't very tired.. Lilja did great and it was smooth sailing.. When we arrived, my mom (oma ) had a bear for Lilja from my sister Brigitte , so she could be there too in spirit..as she had to work, luckily just one more day..

Oma is the nurturer, she loves waking up with us at 6 and snuggling in bed, and laying in bed playing with Lilja or giving her a bottle during the day.. she is teaching Lilja lots of fun Dutch songs and has babysat a couple of times now.. she LOVES it!!!

When we got to their house, there were toys galore, and Lilja was right away in her element.. Plus they had made a complete nursery for Lilja in which she sleeps sooo good and loves going to bed... Opa is the big reader of the family and is starting a little Opa and Lilja tradition of reading before bed.. so cute to see this big man being sweetened by such a little girl!

Opa is a very calm and collected man except with Lilja.. he is so silly and Lilja really looks for him when he is not around.
more tommorrow.. we have LOTS of photos'and these are from my dad's camera... on mine I haven't even started yet..
