WHAT'S BEEN GOING ON BEHIND THE MERRIMENT

by - Tuesday, April 02, 2013






^^ Nadia's almost two year old cousin making the most of our nonattendance ^^







^^ New face on the block - my brother David towering over my astonishing 5ft 3 ^^























































































































We've been on a real roll with avoiding domestic activities and ecstatically replacing them with physical achievements of all sorts. Fortunately weather didn't surprise us more than it normally does and two or three degrees less still kept us on our feet just as we like it. Was it a matter of being creative with our wardrobe? Only a little and only at times but teaming up with a woolen hat certainly helped. Days have gone beyond crazy with so many outings of which hiking in the forest was most pleasurable with Nadia's two uncles and her cousins on board. She loves having them around, asks about the older boy constantly so we thought giving them enough space to be playful couldn't happen on other occasion than last Friday. Add my younger brother who has stayed with us for the past week and you'll get the picture of how we're running our happy ship. He fancied a change so I jumped at the thought of having more family around and our magnolia painted walls have come to life like never before - imagine conversations until late hours when you just want to go on and on and on, thought out meals to satisfy new taste buds, following little feet to secret play areas. 

Just in case my brother won't skip the wording section - I'm so happy having him here with us, discovering him again, building the loveliest community with those I love and care about. This new situation creates more possibilities for our tiny, self-reliant family as well as occasional difficulties with blogging becoming an activity I have unintentionally neglected. But we're gradually formatting new routine and making our home a snug nest for my brother is simply a pleasure. Only waiting for those 'in-between' weather days becoming full spring sunshine explosion. Will it happen soon? x
