I guess it is not a secret anymore. Our family is growing bigger

I am pregnant and Vetle, Anitra, Ole, Gunn and Lill is going to get a lil brother or sister in April next year.

Monday this week I was to my first ultrasound scan. That was really exciting to see that lil body first time and see the lil heart beating. Everything looks great. The only thing the doctor did notice is that the neck of the uterus is a little short. So he wanted to keep an eye on it - just in case my new lil baby want to come into the world way to early!

Little Vetle do not understand so much that there is a new baby on the way. He is just a happy little boy. And in a couple of weeks he will turn 2 years old and will be a big boy!

Now I am going to just relax for the rest of the evening and watch CSI:NY before it is bedtime

Last night I finally did it! …I threw away Vetle’s baby bottles! For a long time he has started to drink of cups with drinking lid on. He did only use his bottles right before bedtime. For the moment he did not show that much interest in his bottles..so I thought it was a perfect time to get rid of them!
LOL..I guess we will see tonight if he will notice they are gone or not :-p

Last week was a busy week. My stepdaughter turned 19 on August 6th. And it was also my and hubby’s 8th anniversary when we got together. Wow..time really flies by!
So on Tuesday I did bake Gunn Kristin favorite cake. My famous (LOL) chocolate cake with wipped chocolate cream. And on Wednesday we had a lil party with my FIL with his wife and my oldest daughter. Vetle had a great time with lots of cookies and cake. LOL..we all had a great time.

This is not going to be such a busy week. But next week the vacation will be over and the kids will be back in school. I really cross my fingers that my stepson and stepdaughter do get a place in school! But we just have to keep the hopes up..and we will know during this week.

So this week I have plans to work more on my forum for my graphic members. Also maybe get some drawing done.  I have sketches for more lines and base I will also work a little on a update for my memberarea. Since I know when I am going back to school on the 25th my computer time will be more limited.

Also this month will be a new time for Vetle if he starts in kindergarden. So many exciting things for all of us this month!

Fun at the beach

Originally uploaded by ZarBella

We have had another hot and sunny summer day. So after dinner today we decided to take a trip to the beach. The kids really loved that idea..LOL.

This was Vetle’s first visit on the beach…and he loved it! He did run straight to the water..and was soaking wet in a second…LOL. Both me and hubby had a hard time trying to keep up with him. But he did not like when the big waves came in..he got wet all over.

After running in the waves it was time to play in the sand. O’boy..that was even more fun. Wet sand and little boys are something that’s goes together. Not so fun for mom and dad that had to try to clean him up before we started on our way home.

So I can truly say we had a great trip to the beach. Loved it both me, hubby and the kids

It is almost 4:30 am and I have still got no sleep…so I am tiiiiired :-s

On Monday it is 2 weeks since we came home from our vacation. And almost 2 weeks the whole family has been sick. Vetle got sick the last day on vacation, so we drove home a day earlier than planned. The first five days home he was really in a bad condition. And then my youngest daughter, Anitra got sick. Same thing as Vetle..high fiver and not feeling good at all. 1 day later it was my turn..then hubby and my stepson. Those have had it most easy with the bug.

But now I really want to get back on my feet and start doing things again!! It is driving me nuts to not be able to to anything at. And when I try to do something I am so weak that it feels like I have run marathon after I have done it :-s

There are some good news though. On Thursday my stepdaughter also moved in with us. Hubby drove up and helped her get all her stuff down her. So now we really need to get all those rooms ready so both my stepson and stepdaughter can get it all unpack and they can settle down

Hubby is back to work again on Monday, so I really hope I feel better till then.

Right now I am so tired………..so…………….I think I will try to get back to bed and see if I get some sleep since Vetle finally did fall asleep.

Good night!

I just love the summer!!! …BTW..who doesn’t?

We are still on vacation, and I finally got some minutes on the laptop. But the connection is really bad..so I am not sure if I will be able to post this at all. :-p

But we are having a great time. Just enjoying the real great weather and each other. Biking on the evening, laying on the beach daytime.

Not sure when we will be back home..but latest on Wednesday..since hubby has to work Thursday and Friday next week :-s And we also have to start painting the house and fix up the bedrooms for my hubbys kids. So lots of work are waiting for us back home.

Now I am off in the sun..we are going to barbeque to my sister in law. They are living on the same camp as us

New bike carriage

Originally uploaded by ZarBella

Yesterday we bought a brand new bike carriage for Vetle. And hubby also bought new bikes for us ;-D I really love to take a bicycle ride - but have not done it in the last couple of years because my old bike was so ruin.

So today hubby did pick up our new bikes after work. And the weather was sunny, but a little windy, so we decided we wanted to try out our new bikes and Vetle’s new bike carriage. LOL..at first I was a little rusty with the cyckling. But you know what they say..have you first learned it you never forget. So after a few meteres I kinda felt I was in control. Vetle had a great time in his carriage behind daddy’s bike. So we did stop by my father in law who lives 2 kilometeres from us. Just the right distance for a first ride after many years..LOL

Finally back home we were tired and happy. I hope we get more great weather for long bike rides.

Also got time for some baking today! Wow..I have been good..LOL :-p It is not ofte I do bake because of my back pain. But now and then I just really can resist. With great help from Anitra, my youngest daughter, we did lots of baking today. I will not try to tell you what we made or explain it..because my English is not that good

Ok….I am working and working to see if I can get my new blog to work…
