The Romans are here!

The Romans are here....can you find me with my matching orange top and my own sword...ready for the fighting...
Look at the sunny weather too for September in Belgium - +25 deg C while my mamã is in the US for 3 weeks (where is the US - they show me a map and say I am here, vovô and vovó are over there, grandma/t'pah are there...??). Anyway back to the real business...what is everyone else (besides the two soldiers next to me) looking at ...they are all looking to the right and beyond...look below at the battle field...We are in Namur with vovô and vovó and papá.

Swimming lessons



This month I started with swimming lessons....Here I am with a float on my belly and kicking on my back, next lesson I had nothing and swam 2 secs without my head going under water. It's a warm small pool with 2 teachers that are trying to get me to put my eyes in the water, which I do NOT like even with my goggles...where is my towel to wipe my eyes?!




Since I love cars, I am much into motor sports too; here I am giving it a try at karting with vovô and vovó watching in the background...

Growing grapes & Walibi

Growing grapes
Can you see me amongst the grapes - our first year to get grapes even in this belgium weather...quick let's take them very sweet purple grapes before the birds eat any more.
Here you can see how tall I am - I am 1.08 m tall (top 10% of belgium charts) and heavy heavy 19.8 kg (although I have not changed weight in 5 months now...) I have to watch my mamã's back.
I am now dressing myself in the morning and undressing myself in the evening alone. I am very good at washing my own teeth and I still love to hear stories at night - one of my favourites is hearing all the stories about making flour, cutting trees, stories of the pigs and the policeman.


I had loads of fun at a place called "walibi" - lots of rides 'ups and downs' and 'arounds', plus Sponge-Bob show where the chair moved and I got wet. I laughed and laughed on the rides below. Wow, there were so many things for me to do...and I had hot dog for lunch and I went on cars and I went on trains and I worked in a mine...and there were no queues...
