I’m baaaack..

December 12, 2009 at 11:44 pm (Uncategorized)

Last week Naomi decided to pour soda down my computer.
At first nothing happend, but then it just slowly shut down, and havent been able to be turned on ever since…  I couldnt even yell at her,  my soul was way to hurt to get mad.  i just turned into a 5 year old and walked away, like someone had stolen my bike.  Yes i enjoy using my computer, and i use it alot, but its just a computer. what hurt me is; ALL  and I MEEN ALL my pictures are gone. Naomi’s birth, all my memories from japan, our vacation trips, and all the pictures i just take for fun. my art my hobby my journey.. shhhhh…  I SUCK at getting my pictures developed, so alot is gone. im glad Louis got most of our pictures on his computer too and I did make an album with Naomis birth. but yet so much is lost…  When i got out of the shower today, and opened my closet to find some clothes, there it was. Louis had surprised me and got me a new computer.  THANK YOU BABY!  so a lesson is learned and ill take this as a personal challenge to take new pictures..  But still….

Slowly cutting the umbilical cord….

December 3, 2009 at 2:32 pm (Uncategorized)

Yesterday, Asia and Naomi had their first field trip with the daycare.  They went swimming.
The girl was excited, but this was the first time they ever went somewhere without me.  And the teacher at the daycare is so nice, she even asked me if I would like to come.
But even though my babies are still small, I gotta learn to let go, and let them have experiences with other kids and adults without me being there, so they can grow too.  So I fought my self and I send them on their way,but it wasnt easy!
Naomi was walking around with her back pack, she is really growing up too. And when we picked them up they was all smiles, and of course  they had a good time, and was so tired.. 
The teacher let me get the pictures.

First frost

December 2, 2009 at 5:12 pm (Uncategorized)

When we woke up this morning, everything was covered in white frost.  And even though I dont like the cold, I love how it looks!  After Louis and I dropped the girls off at the daycare, we took the boys out for a walk in the woods. We was freezing out @$$’ off, but I got a chance to practise with my camera and spend some alone time with hubby :-)

IT’S FINALY THE FIRST OF DECEMBER!!!

December 1, 2009 at 10:01 pm (Uncategorized)

I’ve been in the christmas mood for months now, actually since I found out we was moving back to Europe.
The thought of  seeing all the decorations in the street, and no palm trees, (even thou I am a sucker for palmtrees, just not in Dec)  all the christmas foods, drinks and yes as you know the list goes on and on.
In Japan, they do decorate in the streets, but the feeling is very different, and to me its more all about giving gifts, wich is understandable, since it’s a completely different religion and culture they have.
But for me, I missed Christmas, everything that comes with it.  And ive been waiting for Dec 1st so we could decorate and let the kids enjoy the holiday too.
Its been pure torture the last months or more, because as most places they start early with putting up christmas stuff in the stores, but I had to control my self.  So every time I’ve went I felt like one of the horses from new york City, that has those big flaps on their eyes. Dont look dont look dont look, just keep going.
But today the troll was let out the box and i felt like a little kid, getting all the stuff for the tree.
And then Louis surprised me with a new lamp that I fell in love with the other day..
Anyway!  I wish everyone who might read this a blessed and joyful holiday.
Time to make new memories for this years Christmas! Happy Holidays everyone..

Every morning in Dec, we light the candle and let it burn down one number, till the 24 th

The girls got a chocolate kalender from their Aunty Sara. Asia tryed to pull out all her tricks so she could open up one more. How to explain to a toddler only one without no crying?  :-)
Louis putting the tree together.  We was gonna get a real one, but Deebo might have a fielday with it.

The girls got an angel each for them and their sister to put on the tree. And a pair of wings for mommy and daddy., and 1 for a baby thats on its way from a friend of mine! Et par vinger til Jannie musens baby!

World Aids Day….

December 1, 2009 at 8:37 pm (Uncategorized)

December first means a lot to me not only because it’s the beginning of christmas, but also because it’s the 1 day outta the year, people can talk openly about Aids, and remember that this is still a problem that’s very much affection millions and millions. Just because the media is filled with the news about the swine flu, and not HIV doesnt mean that the problem has gone away.  And as a mother, of soon teenagers, Okay maybe not soon :-) but one day they will grow up, and even with Louis many rules and traps he got planned for them so they wont date till they are at least 50. It’s still important to talk about how serious this is, and how we can prevent it. . And for me I  also on this day take a moment out, and I light a candle and think about my uncle, whom died from Aids some years ago. 
So lets take a moment to remember world Aids day

May your soul continue to rest in peace;     Stig Larsen And everyone else who suffered from it…

Bugs ‘r’ us

November 15, 2009 at 10:18 pm (Uncategorized)

You would think that with 2 young girls in the house, we would have a million dolls, pony’s, dress up clothes, and what not. But truth is, our girls is not really girly like that.
Asia is in a phase where she LOVES bugs, mainly spiders, ladybugs and ants.
And Naomi’s favorite toys right now, is a Dinosaur, a dragon and a Snake. Im terrified of bugs and creeps but i cant show them to that.

Family sunday!

November 15, 2009 at 9:49 pm (Uncategorized)

I love family days.  And this is the first sunday Louis had off in a while. 
The girls and the dogs enjoys that.  We went for a walk on the beach and brought the dogs so they could run and swim, and as we was standing there, the dogs was’nt the only ones wanting to swim, out comes a group of people, in bathing suits and hats, mind you its below 50 degrees now. But they jumped right in and did what they wanted and then ran alittle on the beach!  I know it was super cold cus when they came out their bodies was a little red… Im freezing just by thinking about it! 
But the girls enjoyed throwing rocks in the water, and playing in the sand. we came home and took a family nap.
And when the girls woke up, they helped me bake cinnamon buns, (or snails, is what we call it)  and a crocodile.  Im not good at baking at all, but thank god our girls have a good imagination so they at least could see it was a crocodile.  And even thought the yeast didnt work, down they went ;-)

Ducks get’s hungry too

November 14, 2009 at 8:21 pm (Uncategorized)

What to do when Daddy got the car and my keys to the bike, and its needed to get out and get some fresh air?? 
Time to get rid of the  stale bread and lets go feed the ducks. Hit a playground and come home and eat lunch! So we did..

I sometimes have to catch my self and not treat Asia and Naomi like they are the same age. I have to remember that Naomi is still younger, and Asia is getting older.
normally Asia Loves to go feed the ducks, it used to be our thing in Japan. And now she is too cool for it, (or so she thinks) We got to the lake and she asked to look at pictures on my cell phone.  WTF??? TEENAGER!
She kinda hurt my feelings a little bit, like i said it used to be our thing, and now she just wanna sit with a cell phone, when did this happened ?? No really I wanna know???  Naomi on the other hand, was in heaven, and so occupied with throwing all the bread out to all the ducks.  Bremerh Nov 09 081

I have one week left, of my second trimester.  And then its 3 more months to go.
When i was carrying Asia every week went by so SLOW, but this pregnancy is actually going by pretty fast and i guess also because i have my hands full with my 2 little monsters I sometimes kinda forget that I am pregnant, till I walk pass a window or a mirror and I see my reflection, and all i can hear in my head is the line from Madagascar 2, from the hippo Moto moto;  Girl you huge…
Im getting bigger, and im already having trouble getting outta the bed without losing my breath,  i know so fat!  Ive been trynna watch what i eat and so on, cus i hate working out, and I know whats waiting after wards, but F$%k it, im hungry every 10 min, and im eating whatever I want ;-)

Bye for now flu monster!

November 13, 2009 at 10:40 am (Uncategorized)

Im so tired of sickness, our family have never had so many colds or little nagging stuff, since we left japan and entered the us.  In Japan, the girls would catch a small cold every now and then, but nothing serious.
in the 3 sesons we where there, Asia only when to the hospital once.

Now that they are in daycare I understand that you they will pick up germs here and there, and im glad because then it should make their immune system stronger for the cold winther thats just around the corner. 

But damn, enough is enough now, on Wednesday night, the girls and I had dinner (louis got practice from 6-8)
Then a night bath for the little ladies, then they played around alittle bit and then it was time to go night night. Sweet 8.OOPm came around and they was both in Lala land.
Louis came home he ate and it was time to get in the bed and watch some C.S.I.
As usual I fell asleep before the crime got solved.
00:45 i wake up because Asia was coughing, I get up to check on her, and she is shivering,  i mean really shaking and she had goose bumps all over, i feel her forehead and she didnt seem that hot but alittle bit. I wake Louis up and we get the girls ready, rush to the emergency room.
In the 3 mins it takes to drive to the hospital Asia vomits all over her self and her blankets.
we get to the emergency room and she gets checked and she now has a fever 103,5.
The doc gives her some meds for the fever, and we get home and she was just fine again.. So at 3;OO the whole house was up watching Asia favorite movie, the dinosours!
She is fine again, but i had my date with the toilet bowl,  and Louis is feeling it too.. Im just happy Louis was home to come with me, i dont know how i would have done it if he was away.

Now enough with the stomach bugs please, over  and out …Thank you very much.
Much Love hormonella!
