Just two days ago i.e. on Sunday morning this is how it looked like! Seriously! And tomorrow is April 1st - which of course is a HUGE day in our household because someone is going to be one-year-old - but, also, this is supposed to be spring!
In all honesty it is now really sunny and pretty warm outside and the sun is melting although the wind is blowing very hard. Last year we had the very first very warm days of spring April 2nd - April 4th. Husband would come to the hospital short sleeved and tell me that it was almost 15 degrees outside. I so wanted to get out and enjoy the sun but come April 5th when little girl and I did get to go home the weather had shifted and it was again, well, like it usually is in early April.
It's incredible to me that last year exactly at this time Husband and I were sitting side by side in our sofa watching television (a show on Hurtigruten was on) and waiting until it was time to head off to the hospital again. We'd been there in the morning and sent back home to wait. Four hours later we took off and then the next morning our beautiful beautiful baby girl was born.
It's gotten hard to take pictures of little girl. She moves so fast. But Sunday morning I managed to take these :).
Ps. We're yet again going to go see a house this evening. It's built 1999 and not a detached house but a part of a row house. We decided that it would make more sense financially to look for a row house at this point.
So we have and found a lovely one Sunday but then Monday we found out the the roof is leaking. The one we see today is 15 years newer and on one level (the one from Sunday was on two levels). I don't love it like I loved the Sunday one but it would be a sensible choice and a lot of the things I tend to fall in love with are things we could do ourselves i.e. changing cabinet doors in the kitchen etc.
Also, our child is in the age when things happen and it might not be a bad idea to wait for a while until her artistical endevours turn away from walls and doors :). We'll see, once again.

Wow...it just doesn't seem like a year since LA and I came to visit in the hospital! Lotta is so, so, cute!! Happy Birthday, Lotta!
Happy Birthday Lotta!
Happy Birthday to Lotta :)
And a happy day to you too mum xx
I was sorry I didn't get to see you on Sunday - thought you'd be at the family service (which was a lot of fun!) ... but anyway good to read that you are alive and well. (Maybe you'll make it to Bliss on Monday?)
House hunting is hard work - but worth the effort. You'll find the perfect place and it'll be marvellous.
You did really really well to sell your own flat so fast. That's more than a minor miracle really - and now have the freedom to look knowing how much you can really afford. That's worth a lot (even the inconvenience of having to rent if the perfect home doesn't come on the market right now)
Hanging in there with prayer for you!
