  • Can our babies sit already?

    Can our babies sit already?

    Our 1st baby has finally started sitting. This was a big wish of ours because we wanted to put him in the high chair while eating and finally wanted to switch from the bassinet to the seat in the stroller. Watch our video!

  • Can our babies stand?

    Can our babies stand?

    Not yet, but our first baby, at 7 months 12 days old, can already support his own body weight with his legs, i.e. stand with support. In the mother-child pass this is called “Ready to stand”. Unfortunately, our second baby can’t do this yet or only for a short time, then his knees give in.…

    Milestone: Our Baby is babbling

    6 months 15 days and our 1st baby has started babbling. This is important for language development! Play our audio clip to hear what it sounds like!

    Our Baby was eaten alive by Mosquitoes

    Today we went to the local wetlands (“Donau-Auen”) and of course our babies were attacked by mosquitoes (like in the image above). But the baby of our friend had zero mosquito bites! How was she able to protect her child?

  • Our Baby isn’t turning over!

    Our Baby isn’t turning over!

    We went to the doctor because our second baby cant’t turn over to his stomach on his own at 5 month 18 days old. But the next day a miracle happened!
