Present

This present was made by the children of Nic´s kindergarden class. It contained a bib for Ruben. I am really proud of all the children that worked together to make this nice little cardboard suitcase. Thank you very much.

Present

This morning, I was almost run over by a UPS truck, since we don´t have that many houses in our neighbourhood, I wondered if it was going to deliver something at our place, but I continued driving to the grocery shop.
When I came back home there was a card that they were here to deliver a package and that nobody was home...
About an hour later, my neighbour suddenly rang the door and she accepted the package for me.
And what was inside...

This gorgeous music box. It is made by Anne-Claire Petit and it plays ´Tulips from Amsterdam´. I love it!

So thank you very much, dear colleagues, I really, really love it.

What have I been up to

We visited the children´s farm in Brasschaat, where my parents live. As you can see, boys will be boys as both of them want to steer the old tractor.
A mum of a classmate of Nic came by for a quick baby visit. She is also a teacher at Nic´s school. Her eldest son is in Nic´s class and her youngest son will start school together with Peter next November.
She made Ruben this wonderful doll which is made from real sheeps wol, it feels really soft.
Hopefully it helps him sleep, since Ruben is awake alot at night. He seems to have problems figuring out what is day and what is night... so we are a bit sleep deprived at the moment... Hopefully he gets the hang of it real soon.

I found some time to make this little felt strawberry tart which fits nicely with the little tea set I bought just before I got Ruben, still thinking it could be a girl. But Boys can also play ´Tea´ , can´t they? We also bought a new car yesterday since DH´s car is broken and it is so old that there is not much use in getting it fixed, so we decided to buy a new one. Will let you know more when we get it.
