The garden shed project

Another project is started! Yes, I know we’re hopeless at enjoying life without projects. And No, we’re not scared of not having anything to do and spend our money on. I know it seems like it, but I keep telling myself it’s not that way.
This project has been in the air for a while, and after a visit from NZ the decision is made to use the garage for my new business which I’ll tell you about later. So since the garage in week or two will be occupied with something else, we thought we better get the garden shed we’ve been talking about for so long built. So here we are, again, in the middle of a big project! And again our dear friend Chrille is here to help. He’s great and always helpful and Chille, I hope we make it clear how much we appreciate you and your helpfulness. Even if it costs a couple of beers every time you’re around, it’s definitely worth it. :o)

Working from home

I’m working from home today since I went to check the condition of the baby in the morning. Everything was fine except that its position with head up when it should at this time be positioned with head down. But no stress, it still has plenty of time to find the exit!
On my way home I went by the local market and bought some fresh fruits and vegetables. Always looks so nice in the kitchen with new fresh fruits!
And as always in the afternoons Daniel and Kevin goes wild on the trampoline!

Snails and worms

Kevin’s new hobby is to pick collect snails and worms and what ever disgusting insects he come across. When has them all in a bucket he feed them with grass and shower them with water. And sometimes he crushes them against the ground. We’re trying to talk him into collecting them and feeding and showering them, but to skip the crushing part. But this is how the dialog goes:
Pernilla: What are you doing?
Kevin: Crush them so they die.
Pernilla: But you can’t do that, it’s sorry for the animals and it hurts on the animals.
Kevin: No it’s not hurting.
Pernilla: How do you know it’s not hurting?
Kevin: They don’t scream!

Afternoon with grandma and Klas

Kevin got picked up by grandma from day-care today. And for the first time since last summer it was 20+ degree´s so we spent all afternoon outdoor. And even when mum picked me up and we went home we didn't want to go inside. So dinner was served on the grass in the garden. Really nice to finally be able to be outdoor without jackets.

Talketive

Kevin has now taken control of out phone at home. He’s very talkative and tonight he spent at least 10 min talking to every member of the Persson family. And he could have gone on for much longer if it wasn’t because the clock was over 8pm and it was past bedtime.
The wound he has under his eye came today at day-care after he and a friend fenced a little too wild with the knives and forks. Must have hurt like crazy! Think he at least has learnt a lesson….

Grandma back from Malaga, Spain

Kevin’s grandma arrived back from Malaga, Spain today and we were fortunate to get a visit by her and Klas. He got a BC Barcelona cap and a ball. Thank You! Now he doesn't want to take of the cap more then when he sleeps!

Where's the baby?

Today Kevin is home with Daniel. I got a message this morning from Daniel that the first thing Kevin said when he woke up and came in to Daniel was –Where’s the baby??
How cute!! I melted when I read the message. We’re trying to talk about the baby in a positive way and trying not to mention is too often when Kevin isn’t starting the conversation himself. But we’re a little nervous about the reaction when Kevin will get his little brother/sister. We’ve heard so many different stories about friends kids who has gone from being the only child to being two. And we really want it to be something positive for Kevin, even if we realize that he in some moments will see the new born as a person who steals the attention from him. But so far, and especially with the comment this morning, Kevin seems to be just curious, positive and protective over his brother/sister to come! Let’s cross our fingers that it’ll stay that way.
