The blog that died...

I guess I forgot about my blog. I am busy thinking about other stuff. And also, we've been away on holidays in New Zealand and Australia for a month. And what a month! We had so much fun with the kids and it was great not having to worry about getting geared up in lots of clothes before heading out. We spent many hours on the beach where the kids were jumping in the big waves.

Art gallery

I love the drawings the kids make and enjoy hanging them on our walls. But I love it even more when the kids hang stuff up themselves, like small surprises. How nice for them to like what they've created, completely liberated that stupid self criticism they will most likely pick up in a few years.

 Hopefully I can boost them by showing how much I like their paintings.

Yesterday Freja was watching ABBA music videos on YouTube and told me that "E's dad is also called Benny, but he doesn'r have the same head" [as ABBA Benny].

 

 

Good girl

Today I was nice to myself. I took the afternoon off and spent it with my kids in the sun. Sweet!

What is a blog?

A blog is a personal journal published on the World Wide Web consisting of discrete entries ("posts") typically displayed in reverse chronological order so the most recent post appears first.

The blogs that I follow are usually updated more often than every 16th day... Since my last post I have been sick, gone to visit friends and cut my hair short. The kiddos have been doing the same old things they usually do and at night they cough which is keeping us awake.

No photos today, I keep forgetting to bring my camera. But I hope to be back soon with a new post and photos.

What we did this weekend

Played on the iPad, went to football training, had lunch at favourite cafe, went tobogganing, fell asleep in the bath, went to Sven's place for dinner, went to the gym, baked an apple pie, went to dance class, had friends over for dinner, did the grocery shopping, watched a good movie and hung out.

Today there is snow AND sunshine. Great start of the week.

Better than mum

I had decided to run a ski race this week. Signed up months ago, bought skis and waited for the snow. But it never came. And when it finally arrived a few weeks ago there wasn't enough of it. So I dropped out of the race (I have never tried skiing before so I need to learn before I race).

Dylan, on the other hand, is a natural born skier.

If there is snow there is a way

You don't need an awful lot of snow to go tobogganing.

At home

Third day home with sick Dylan. I feel the need for a long walk, plase give me some fresh air! I hope he is better tomorrow, his coughing is keeping us all awake at night.

Snow

And finally there was snow. Not much, but never the less snow. And suddenly the kids ask to get dressed to go outside and play.
