Nina talks

Nina just got a new toy- a pink poodle thingy- and she looooves talking to it:




Here she's just telling about her day and enjoying her tasty hand!

Nina and "TickTack-Opa"

In Germany we call our greatgrandparents "Ur-Grosseltern"- "Ur-" sounds like "Uhr" which means clock. Paul, Nina's German cousin, calls a clock a "ticktack"- that's why my grandfather is Nina's TickTack-Opa!!!















Nina and her TickTack-Opa "talking":

Flowers for me!

My mom and Opa got some flowers and planted them in pots on the porch- it looks gorgeous!!!

















That's what our evenings look like:

Nina and her Greatgrandfather

Yummmmmy hands!!!














Friday we went to the outlet mall in Round Rock. My Opa, Nina's Greatgrandpa was the perfect baby sitter, baby entertainer, baby holder, stroller pusher,...




















We had a lot of fun that day!!!

Here's MY crowd (it was really loud with music playing and people yelling and whistleling(?)- Nina did NOT like all that noise):
