As he enters his twentythird month on Planet Earth, our Sun Child is spending some quality time on his mom's lap (row below). Is this true love, or what?

Unfortunately, life is not all fun, even when you are trying to have fun (row below, left). As you may guess, what happened next is that Lior took a tumble (row below, middle and right).

The petting zoo is a regular stop in Lior's schedule (left). He is great at imitating all the animal sounds. What he enjoys most about the petting zoo, however, is that he always gets to buy a bag of chips.

Going shopping with you mom and youngest sister is sure exhausting. As a result, our sweet boy falls asleep in the bicycle trailer on the way home (right).

Thanks to Luna's help (row below, left), Lior is learning how to use the computer, much to his enjoyment (row below, middle). Suddenly, he can no longer be mistaken for a baby (row below, right). Indeed, he is making wonderful developmental progress. Especially his singing and speaking skills are improving at a very rapid pace.

Lior loves to eat (row below, left and middle) and joke around (row below, right). What can be better that combining these two favorite activities?!

With two children sometimes behaving badly...

Lior is very happy to help (left and right). In fact, he prefers to put the chair together all by himself, as you can see in the clip. To be honest, the chair is also used for standing and watching mama make dinner.

...a second "chair for bad behavior" has to be put together.

After all the hard work, it is time for some fun with Luna and Iris at Chimpie Champ (left and right). Unfortunately, mom is too busy chasing after Lior to take pictures of him running around the indoor play ground.

Hip, Hip, Hurray!
Twentythree months old!

And what better place to celebrate one's twentythird Month Day than the petting zoo (row above, left and right). And what better company in which to celebrate it than papa, Aafke, Luna, and Lenneke (row above, middle)? Lior loves to hang out on the playground with his youngest sister (left and right, top). And he also has lots of fun on the playground by himself (left and right, bottom).

The see-saw is clearly Lior's favorite (left and right, top). And the tractor is the place to be for our little macho man (left, bottom). Posing on the cow is certainly not as much fun (right, bottom). Lior loves going to the petting zoo, if only because he gets to have a small bag of chips each visit. And he loves to pet the animals (row below, left and right). He is so intrigued by them, that he wants to follow them inside (row below, middle).
