Table-gripper

Yes, I know we should go buy one of those things like a high-chair, but it is so much more fun to sit like a grown up!

Toys!

And some fast-action arm and leg movement... Topi is officially crawling, climbing, and standing... walking with us... so much fun!

Hanging out at home with Mom...

Friday Morning, Zeytinburnu, Istanbul

Thank you, Jenny, for this photo:) We had a fun night in Istanbul playing with Jenny and Samet. When we woke up, there was even more playing and even some taxi rides, boat rides and a bus ride! What a day!

Bath in the blue tub

Water pouring out the tap is the greatest of inventions. So is splashing and trying to grab the water.

Sunny day trip to the beach

On a warm April Sunday we went to Ulasli, a small seaside town on the Izmit Gulf. Evren loved the sound of the water, but found the glaring sun a bit much. We had fun listening to the waves and drinking tea at a little cafe.

Fun pijamas/pyjamas

Yogurt-Face

We are exploring new foods these days. If we can stick our hands in it and put it all over our face, even better.
