Today in Amsterdam

The rain and grey this week admittedly put me in a funk after we got back from Vienna. My motivation to leave the house with Jude in the pouring rain/hail was zero and staying indoors all day drove me a little crazy. That, coupled with some late work nights for Pete had me thinking for the first time in a long time, "boy, these days are loooong." 

But then last night after hosting some friends for dinner, the most beautiful snow fell and stuck around for the first half of the day today. Then we had two playdates, followed by a long stroll along the canals before meeting Pete promptly at 4pm for some beers. 

The little man turned 10 months today! For the first time, he said mamamama. Still very non-specific babbling, but heartwarming none the less! Now, he is fast asleep, more snowing is falling fast and the jacuzzi tub and a tall glass of wine are calling my name. Happy Friday everyone! 

View out our windows this morning



Snow quickly melting, but snowman holding strong! 
Gorgeous sky!




Stepped inside Westerkerk for the first time today. Very stark in true Protestant form, especially compared to the opulent cathedral and churches of Vienna. 
"Walking" is my new favorite

The number "1" didn't stand a chance against this squirmy munchkin
