French family flew back home and crazy vacation time is over... Here are some random facts and photos about our past three busy weeks:
- Baby Tricotine is completely
pottytoilet trained - night and day
- We spent few days in New Hampshire - Visited Story Land, Santa's Village and climbed up Mount Washington again, but with the Cog Railway this time
- Drove a cool rented Chevy Van (with DVD player) and considering getting one. Well, maybe...
- Baby Tricotine climbed up Chuck E. Cheese's "big slide" for the first time!
- Bowled Candle Pins for the first time, and have liked it better than regular bowling
- Finished my Melody Shrug
- I have received my Favorite Socks Book in the mail
- Shopped at L.L. Bean (again) - Got myself some Wild Berry Coastal Clogs. Amazing how those rubber shoes can be comfortable!
- Toured Portland in a Duck
- Kids watched Monster Inc. for the first time (while riding in the van) and they didn't find it as scary as I thought they would... Maybe is it because we have our own little Boo at home?
- Went to the Beach in Ogunquit
- Walked .8 mile to the Breakwater Lighthouse in Rockland (and back)
- Gained 15 lbs - lots of
comfort-food episodesdining out...
- Almost lost my sanity switching from English to French all the time...
- Have added another candle to my BD cake, and got myself a toe ring... YEP! And I love it... HA!
- Got myself new Running Shoes & have resumed excercising
And ...
- Against all odds (let's kindly say that we didn't hire the right landscaper) the playset for the kids is finally installed. Mister Tricotine did a wonderful job!
There is still lots to do to fix desolation land around the playset though, and it is going to take some time...
- Watched Braves vs Red Sox on TV last night -
for onceBraves won - and after 7 years of trying, I have finally understood a bit of Baseball rules... Well, I think...
