| Berend is growing ever bigger, taller, and more skillful in exploring his world. Now that he is crawling (in military style on his elbows) he is not quite as chubby as he used to be. To make up for the increase in required energy Berend has started quite clearly to demand food other than baby formula. So he gets applesauce and blueberry puree and he especially enjoys green beans, which takes some getting used to as a breakfast meal. | |
| Over the summer, Berend has been busy exploring the world. He went to England and Germany. Here he is with his father at Canterbury Cathedral. Can you spot them in the crowd? |  |
| ...and here he is with his mother at Dover Castle. |  |
| Berend was also busy exploring his social environment on his trip. He met a lot of other people and babies and kids. Here he is with his father and his Aunt Margarete... |  |
| and here with his cousin Jule, his Aunt Gesa, and his mother... |  |
| and friend Yoah, and his parents Holger and Arve... |  |
| And back at home his truest friend Dexter has learned to appreciate Berend's ability to pick up the rubber chicken and wave it around vigorously. |  |
