14.January 2014 - Princess Lina

... or the funniest girl ever

She is totally crazy dressing herself for quite a while now that we are laughing so much every day. There´s always a dress or skirt, a hat and boots or funny socks, a skarf and a bag. Sometimes short trousers under the skirt just in case to get cold. No tights preferably... she doesn´t like them. Or sometimes just naked with a knitted hat and a knitted skarf. Or sometimes even tights, a winterjacket and a hat. 

The best combinations you have ever seen... definitely!

5.January 2014 - Happy Birthday, Simon!


We were celebrating Simon´s 2nd birthday today. Now we achieved those times when visiting families with kids is more relaxing than exhausting. Just a few months ago I found it pretty horrible to have all these little ones together but this time they were... sooo good! 
Although running around and screaming from time to time they were most of the time busily playing and entertaining each other.


4.January 2014 - Visiting Emelie

Such a shame but it took until 2014 before we met Miss E again. Lina was so excited when I told her we would go and meet her. She insisted in bringing something even though E already got the things we had for her for Christmas. So we stopped at a shop to buy a banana and a stuffed animal for the babygirl, bread and salt for the parents (as they had moved house and this is tradition in our country). 

1.January 2014 - In the mountains


The new year started with heavenly weather and a fantastic day the four of us together. We decided to take the kids into the snow - which is only on the mountains until now - and try some sledding. We all had a blast and due to the fact that there was fresh snow and a pretty hard ski run it went at highspeed in between times.

Those pics would have the most effect if you could hear the kids laugh... it was joyful! There are some videos too as you can imagine...

365/365 - 31. December 2013

Last day of the year 2013

It was an awesome year. So many things to be grateful for and on top of these are of course my family - my incomparable and unique hubby and my oh so loved and precious children. 

When I finished my 366 project in December 2012 I was pretty proud and happy that I did it and that it was done. I put the slideshows together, browsed through older posts and then I was sure... I could not stop.

I wanted to change the way I was posting because the pressure of doing it daily was too much. So I decided to publish weekly or when I had time to. It worked. Sometimes I had to catch up a lot but anyway I was proud I kept up. ... and now... when I look at the videos of 2013 I know it was totally worth it!


So what´s up with 2014? Haha! Can I stop? NO.


The last day of the year was a comfy one. We visited granny and were so happy to meet baby E too. The kids had a blast because everyone was thrilled to see them and was entertaining them perfectly. Guess who liked this!?


I can roughly imagine how excited Lina will be when there will be a baby in our house someday. She is totally crazy for littles and treating them so gently.


 Oh I have some handsome men in my house. Proud mama and wife here!


On Christmas Eve both Max and Lina were in high spirits that it was difficult to get them to bed. They could not leave their new toys and enjoyed the beautiful atmosphere of the Holy Night a lot.

I thought it would be the same about New Year´s Eve but nothing. They were tired soon and whining. The idea of watching the fireworks together was... a bad one. Anyway... we put them to bed and spent a funny and relaxing evening together with my parents.


Fortunately I made these at the beginning of the evening... would defintely not have worked later! These pics turned out adorable... I love them!

My babies on the last day of 2012. Is this change crazy or what!?


Thank you my loves for this great year, full of ups and downs, full of laughter and joy, love and happiness! You all are the love of my life and I will not even imagine a day without you! 

Thank you, thank you, thank you... for being mine!

Mama

Happy 17th anniversary!

Darling,

I was so very much looking forward to spending a super evening with you but unfortunately we both are sick. Spent the whole day feeling bad and worse every hour.

We did it without a pic today which is definitely better, haha!

Anyway I wanted to let you know that I still love you... 
16 years later... 
you are still mine, in my heart forever!

Boxing Day

Hubby´s family came over for lunch. We wanted to meet earlier this year as I have a nightshift and feel pretty sick in addition.

The kids got lovely gifts again and were busily playing all afternoon entertained by omi, auntie and uncles.

Lina got a sweet nightgown and refused with screams to take it off
Quite practiced in unwrapping

Love,

Mama
