I'm looking forward to seeing the finished treehouse. And, that is the cutest bellybutton around!

Time in the hinterland looks lovely (as does the belly button). Enjoy your time. ~ksp

As a Grandma, I can just feel how much Opa & Oma are enjoying this time with Wee One (are all babies fascinated by their bellybuttons - Baby M is too) & the boys.

It's so great that you take the kids to visit their grandparents, even though it's so far. I only met my father's parents once, and I wasn't close to my mother's parents. I never felt the lack until I had kids and saw how much they love their grandparents, and how much their grandparents love them. It's a very special relationship; all the love but none of the responsibility of parenthood.

Hehe, love how cute that kid is.

I love traveling the world through the blogs I read. Your trips to visit the inlaws is always so precious. Have a great trip!

It seems so very welcoming. Can the kids speak some German? It would be a great inheritance.

Yeah, Orli, the tree's not really big enough for that, but they've got a tent up there and they can sleep out there "in" the tree.

Oh my gosh- it's been months since I've had a chance to visit your blog and your "baby" daughter is getting to be such a little girl!
Hope you are enjoying your time away!
