DAY 133 - Closer look

A much much closer look at my Mother's day bouquet! Love this photo, even if it's not that sharp.

DAY 131 + 132 Mother's Day

DAY 132 Monday, May 11

And this is the bouquet flowers A. gave me yesterday( She went to the store with her daddy!)
little note: I love you!


DAY 131 Sunday, May 10 HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY
I couldn't post just one pic today. I got the most wonderful gifts today

from L.

from A. She also had a poem but she wrote it all by herself and knew it by heart. She's going to write it down for me... later, she said.

L. made this strawberry marmelade with her teacher, it's delicious!

and ... the most precious gift ... my girls laughing and having fun!

DAY 127 - 130

DAY 130 Saturday, May 9

Beautiful creature but unfortunately the girls and I have such a fear of these... This one and a lot of his family found a home in our garden, sigh!

DAY 129 Friday, May 8

L.'s hair were getting way too long and the ends were very very thin so today, we went to the hairsalon for some extra care and a new haircut.

No big changes - just 15 cm shorter! She still has long, long hair but it looks much healthier now and the most important thing : SHE 's happy about it!

DAY 128 Thuesday, May 7

My mom always buys little gifts for my girls. I always say she doesn't have to, but she can't stop. She just loves it. The other day she had 2 beautifuls butterflies: a blue and a pink one. We put them in the garden for some extra color: nice, right!

Day 127 Wednesday, May 6

Please, let me take another pic, pleeeease! I needed some specific pics for a LO I had to make (a scene I wanted to create) and after some resistance A. gave me a little smile. I so love her!

DAY 126 - Our panda's

I had a hard time finding something to take a pic of today. I was looking in the girls room and saw these 2 guys smiling at me. We hung(hanged?) these cute self-made panda's on our front door when we came home from China... so everyone could see that our girls were finally home. I still find them the cutest.

Marleen, yes those grenade apples from yesterday are pomegrants. I had to google, I had no clue how to call them in English... we call them "granaatappelen" in Dutch.

DAY 124 + 125

Day 125 - Monday, May 4

Healthy and DELICIOUS!!! These are grenade apples and the very favorite fruit of both my girls.

Day 124 - Sunday, May 3

They never have enough furry friends, right? Tiger & Panda are the latest addition to my girls collection of stuffed animals. They are so soft and cute, we couldn't just leave them at the store.

DAY 123 - little trooper

L. loved the games at scouts camp today... until they had to put their face in water and then in some flour. She made me laugh! She was so funny when she tried to explain it to me. She really couldn't see the fun in it. This was really NOT her thing. She tried to clean her face with a Kleenex but didn't get all of it. But she's a good sport and allowed me to take a pic. I had to beg for a smile though!

DAY 122 - Summer

We had a wonderful "Summer" day today! We took advantage of the nice warm weather and went biking. Now that I have a second photographer in the family, I'm not always the one taking the pics: A. took this pic of her sister while we stopped for a few minutes and a sip of water.
