Happy new year

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! May all your wishes come true and may 2009 be better than 2008!

Since mommy still has to lay on the couch most of the time, we had a very quiet new years eve. We went over to my moms friends house Uli and had Raclette there (yummy), hung out and then lit some firecrackers at midnight. I stayed up all evening but fell asleep the second my head hit the carseat on the way home, haha.
Howie had a friend with him who was visiting. His name is Sebastian. They had a great time.

Mama, Uli and me at midnight.

pretty firework in the sky...

Tante Julia, Mama and me, busy lighting one childproof firecracker after another.

Uli, Ann-Kristin and Martina at midnight, celebrating the new year.

On saturday daddy, Howie and I took a trainride down to Heidelberg. Howie and I both love trains so daddy thought it would be a nice day trip. Howie was born in Heidelberg and he hasn't seen much of it since, he lives in the States.

Howie in the city that he was born in, 10 years ago.

Sunny day in Heidelberg, driving over the Neckar river in the Citybus.

On the bus in Heidelberg, touring the city a little bit. Here it was nice and warm at least!

Got my ice-scating boots on, ready to go and still smiling... not for long!

Howie wanted to go ice-scating. He was the only one of us three who had done it before. Daddy and I looked very silly holding onto the penguin and trying not to fall ;-)

I was so cold after the ice-scating that daddy had to wrap his jacket around me. Daddy was cold then but I was nice and warm. Thanks daddy, I love you!
