Our holiday in pictures

Andorra, a tiny country between France and Spain...

PS: Perhaps it has to do with the fact that I haven't been blogging much this year, but I thought I used to be able to drag my pictures downwards or upwards as I pleased. This time, it didn't work so the order of the pictures is not really how I wanted it.

Oh, and perhaps a question I should have asked when I first started blogging: Is it possible to get a full or at least a bigger screen to write your blogpost in than the one Blogger is currently offering me (which is really small - I'm guessing 2.5 x 6 inches or something)?

The first "m" on my daughter's tattoo disappeared after only one night. Somehow "I ♥ ama" doesn't give me exactly the same feeling as the original. But I can hardly hold that against her ;)

The best part about these tattoos (after the obvious 'they come off after a while")?

They light up in the dark. Oh yes :)

Raspberries & Chocolate

Apparently my husband is one of the few who still checks up on my blog. I have to admit... there hasn't been much going on on my blog lately and even I get somewhat depressed when I see it.

So... in this post I'd like to give some credit to that wonderful, supportive husband of mine who has really developed his baking skills since he enrolled in a baking class last September. Every Monday evening he has brought home one delicious treat after another (while only putting on about 1 extra pound ;)

And therefore I'd like to do a little show and tell.

Show:

Tell: This chocolate/raspberry bavarois was entirely (except for the swirly chocolate thingies) handmade by my husband! Of course, I would be happy with just the chocolate bottom part, but I have to admit: it looked (and tasted) really good!

I wonder how long it will be before he let's me know that he read my blog.

I might get lucky that evening ;)

And if I'm really lucky, he'll bake me some cookies. With raspberries. Pretty please?

The mirror only shows my reflection

not who I am inside.

In stitches

Well, not in the meaning that I laughed so hard I nearly peed my pants or anything.
No, not at all.

Little Miss Loveliness cut her finger last Wednesday while playing outside and she ended up at the doctor's office having stitches. Fortunately the nerve wasn't hurt. Her finger should be all better in about 10 days. Her brother and I read to her from a book while the doctor was busy and she didn't look at her hand (I tried not to look too much either) till the doctor was finished. So now all she has to look at is a nicely bandaged middle finger...

A photoshoot ...

no scary pirates this time. Just l♥veliness.

It's been a while

(ok, so that's an understatement).

My little girl has meanwhile lost both of her front teeth. She had to be a pirate last week and we thought, well, why not knock out a few teeth so that she'd look like a genuine pirate? (Please note sarcasm was being used here...).

Scary, ha?

And my dear boy... we'll he's now officially a teenager since he turned 10 recently.

Complete with "cool" hair and attitude.

Just a small update... but I hope to be back soon.
