Thank you for answering my question in the last post about how often you and your partner are in contact throughout the day. I think it is more professionally based than anything! Gary really doesn't have time to text/call/email me as he's teaching all day. Let's be honest, if you are Gary's friend, you know that is not his strength. At all.
I told him he could get an iPhone but he said he didn't want to be able to text with me:) I think he's scared I'd ask him to do a million errands on the way home or something. I know I can always contact him in an emergency if I call the school but we are trying to figure out the best way to stay a bit more connected during the day because I need it.
Here is a picture of me at Nya's age. I look like a mix of Nya and Georgie. Nya's head is thinner and she has a cuter nose but man, we tie for baldness! She has my smile though:)
Today Isaac was over and it was wet but we still explored. Kai and Koen went to Gary's parents overnight (Yahoo!!!! Missed them but so nice to have a break! They do it about 2-3x a year) so I just had the two little kids! They are soooo easy together! If Nya was a twin, I wish it would be with Isaac:) He is very gentle and sensitive. When I said `NO!' to Nya, Isaac started crying! So sweet.
Isaac: Water! Water!
Nya is so cute and tries to pick up water with a pincer grasp.
Wait up Isaac! He's a runner.
A walk is more about the journey. Fun things to jump on that make a cool sound. Isaac is 4 months older and about 2 inches and 10 lbs heavier than Nya :)
And the park is in sight! Off they go....
So great to spend some time with Isaac and get to know him better. I could never do daycare full time but I do enjoy doing it once in a while...for one kid :)
And the boys. This trampoline has been sooooo well used. Always a different game going on.
Too cute! Buddies!
By the way, I've been having smoothies for breakfast every day for 5 days and have tripled my fruit and veggie intake (it was really terrible before), feel way healthier, and lost 2-3 lbs. Just saying! Ha, I sound like an infomercial. Koen LOVES infomercials:)
HOpe you are having a good week!
Love, Louise
What kind of smoothies are you having? Would love to see one or two of your favourite recipes
ReplyDeleteAll I do is frozen banana, handful of spinach, flax seeds, frozen blueberries, Greek yogurt, milk and honey. Going to start adding kale too. I have it as my breakfast and if hungry after dinner, have that instead of something else. Any berries or fruit taste good in there. Can't even taste the spinach so I often add a lot more.
DeleteWhat do you put in your smoothies?
ReplyDeleteI have an infomercial lover here too...Noah tries to convince me daily that I need the waxvac or popchef or...
ReplyDeleteOh, and plant protein powder too!
ReplyDeleteThat is my typical smoothie too (without the honey). Delicious start to the day! I usually cheat and use the Costco bag of frozen berries. As for texts, it depends on the spouse's job. In my case, I know the two times when he has his phone on him in case I need to send logistics, haha. Tia
ReplyDeleteI'm doing this strawberry and Kale one tomorrow, just with regular milk though.
