A Nice Quiet Week

Today is Friday and the end of a nice quiet week. We were all absolutely exhausted by the end of last weekend and it took until Wednesday to get back to 'normal', whatever normal is for us.
Yesterday my expat friend Copper and her lovely baby Maddox came over for a play. Poor Edward woke from his nap to find visitors in the house. He spent half an hour first hiding behind my legs, clinging to me for dear life, and then quietly hiding behind the large lego box, looking at his feet. Then he recovered and had a very nice play. By the end of their visit he was bringing Maddox toys to look at and thoughtfully putting them in front of M's hands (M is quite young and is just beginning to roll over).

I think the Dutch summer is over as we are having weather slightly like a Canberra Autumn - crisp nights. During the day it is overcast and sometimes rainy. Difficult to dry the washing.
This weekend we plan to relax and do nothing, which will be wonderful.
