For my husband..

just some little stuff

Finally this weekend I squeezed in some time for my sewing.. now after I'm back into it, I

realize how much I missed it.. so her is what I did, not much.. but oh well at least something:A bag for my wonderful friend Britta, she picked the fabric out and I sew.. and it turned out so pretty. two, actually three cloth diapers. I'm having issues with the ones I bought on Caleigh. I don't really know why, but the Thirsties and the Bumgenius diapers leak on her. Caiden is doing fine with them, so I thought it's maybe because she is so little. The Thirsties are requierd for 18-35 lbs and she is 17 lbs. So made my own pattern, I used one of her dispossable diapers to do the sizing.. she still leaks over night, but during the day they seem to work.. we will see.

So that's it for now.. I hope I can do a little more and won't have such a big lack of sewing again

One funny Bunny

is our Caleigh!

She is a really picky eater and I was really suprised that she loved the rice, veggies and fish.. but you can see that she is really checking out what's on the spoon.. just in case I could put some posion on it..

Yeah I know again not really a blog entry just another video.. I'm just soo busy.. sometimes I wonder if it ever gonna stop... I can't remember the last time I was bored.. would be nice to have that feeling again..

I just wish my life would slow down a little bit so I actually feel that I got something done instead of thinking about all the things I didn't get done today..

Also I haven't done any sewing at all in about .... I don't know at least 4 weeks.. it's sad.. really I wish I could do more, but when the kids go to bed at night I usually clean up the daily mess and then collapse on the couch and don't really get up until I go to bed (unless there is some food around what maybe could go bad and I have to take care of it, like chocolate or chips... )

But hopefully I will get somehow, somewhere, sometimes some more energy and to stuff again... maybe in November when Chris is back and Caiden goes to Pre-school... maybe..

my crazy drivers

Hey Hun, I think we need a really good insurance in about 14 years..

at the Park

today Dean visited us, so his Mom and his Sister could go to the movies and see "how to train your dragon".

We had ok weather and went outside to the Park across the street. The kids had fun..

Caiden love to climb..Miss Caleigh playing with the stones.Saying sorry after fighting...Running arround and being goofy

Der Capt'n bei starkem Seegang..

so sieht es aus wenn Miss Caleigh laufenderweise die Welt erkundet.

Especially for you Hun, so you can see our little girl walking.. it still suprises be when she comes around the corner walking instead of on all fours... she is so hilarous.. even when she is cranky like she was when I took the video.. enjoy

Frohe Ostern

Auch wir haben fleissig Eier versteckt, gesucht und gefunden...

Ansonsten lassen wir es uns mit Nonna gut gehen und geniessen die Zeit.. deswegen auch so wenig Blogeintraege von mir!

Koenig Caiden got a haircut

Vorher:Nachher:

I have to say I was really suprised how good he was! He was sitting still all the way, She used the clippers for the sides and the scissors for the top. Maybe that I fed him chocolate raisins through the whole thing had something to do with it?? I don't know, but still I was so proud of him and he looks so stinking cute now!

I took him to the Ladies hairdresser, because I heard that the women at the barber shop are kind of mean and not really patient with little ones. So I paid 13 $ for his haircut... Maybe next time I try to find a cheaper version..

The first nice day of the year...

was today! It was so nice and warm outside so we spent the afternoon just in our backyard. The kids played in the sandbox, we had a chat with the neighbors and just enjoyed the sun.
Caleigh and her bagel.. Bagels, Bananas, Applesauce and sometimes Noodles and her soymilk, that is pretty much all what she eats (besides some snacks like Graham Crackers, Goldfish and Brezels)

Miss Nina is watching really close if maybe someone is gonna drop something eatable.

As you can see, the Man of the house enjoys life, little Macho!

I'm working!!!

Seit zwei Tagen gehe ich wieder zur Arbeit!
Ich arbeite als Lifeguard in der YMCA. Zunaechst hab ich mich ohne gross nach zu denken beworben. Als es dann erst wurde hatte ich schon ziemliche Bedenken. Wie mach ich das mit den Kindern?? Sind sie noch zu klein um ohne mich auszukommen?? Fragen ueber Fragen. Nachdem es dann auch noch ziemlich schwer war Daycare fuer die Kids zu finden, wollte ich es schon ganz aufgeben, bevor ich ueberhaupt angefangen hab. Dank meiner lieben Freundin Simone, die mich bestaerkt hat es auf jeden Fall zu versuchen. Hab ich mir dann einen Babysitter gesucht, im Hourly Care ruf ich inzwischen taeglich an und Simone ist auch als Babysitter eingesprungen. Und bisher kann ich nur sagen, es war die richtige Entscheidung.
Die ARbeit macht mir totalen Spass, es ist anstrengend aber es tut gut mal wieder unter Erwachsenen zu sein.

Am ersten Tag waren Monster und Maus bei Simone und sie hatten totalen Spass. Caiden wollte sogar nicht mal nach Hause gehen.
Heute war dann das erste Mal unser Babysitter da. Sabra ist erst nach Colorado Springs gezogen und sie hat es toll gemacht, Caiden hat sie sogar umarmt und will das sie wieder kommt.

Von daher hat jetzt mal alles gut geklappt. Morgen hab ich frei und dann noch am Donnerstag und dann hab ich meine erste Woche als arbeitender Mensch ueberstanden.

Ich plane 2 Tage die Woche zu arbeiten. Drueckt mir die Daumen dass es weiterhin zu gut laeuft.
