2 months

So this is a bit late, but most have seen Z's picture on facebook for her 2nd month.  She has learned so much {again}! :) She can smile and laugh at you and in response to you.  She's cooing and squealing more and more.  Very slowly, she's learning to grab things - a favorite is hair while fussing from hunger {not to fun for this mama}.  She has learned to grab and pull a thing that plays music in her jungle gym.  So fun!  She can roll onto her right side and tries to roll onto her tummy from there, but hasn't done it yet.  Her left side does not interest her quite as much, so I hung her music thingie on that side to get her going that way as well.  Sneaky, huh?  {Thanks, Moms, for the tip!}

This weekend we are taking our first little trip away.  Friday is a holiday so we had out tomorrow!  We'll be staying near this beautiful city:

Sadly, it's supposed to be quite cold and perhaps even snow this weekend.  We shall see.  I hope we can still enjoy the lake and town of Hallstatt.  We'll be sure and bring lots of warm clothes and pack up Baby Z so she can be snug as a bug in a rug as we walk around! ;)

What are your plans for the weekend?

Welcoming strangers into my home

For 16 weeks now, we have had a young refugee couple from Syria living with us. They have been married a little over a year and for the majority of that time have been separated from each other, since he made the journey to Austria alone and got everything in order so that she could come legally.  Let me backtrack a bit and tell you how it all started. As the refugee crisis really started to explode here, facebook was buzzing with articles, videos, pictures, etc. of the situation. I read a lot. I saw a lot. I was moved. I was troubled. But what could I do? I had a three year old and one year old at home.  ... I could teach some German. But when?   ... I could donate clothes and other items that were needed. But that didn't seem like enough. ... I could give money. But I wanted something more tangible.  I would put my youngest to bed and during those days, she needed lots of TLC in order to get to sleep. I kept thinking about the refugees and how t...

the little things

My day is filled with doing little things... wiping noses changing diapers fixing hair brushing teeth doing dishes straightening up books and toys that land everywhere tying shoelaces doing load upon load of laundry folding said laundry putting on hats making sandwiches  putting littles down for a nap and on  and on and on. Sometimes I get tired of the mundane. I get tired of life right now being so .... regular ... every day seems so the same. I was talking to my sister the other day about it and I said, I wouldn't want to change it, but yet sometimes the mundane gets to me. I get restless. I feel like the hamster running round and round the wheel and it's always the same. {just different friends and playdates} Today over breakfast while feeding the baby, I listened to a podcast {ahem, part of one }. And this really got to me: Love well in the little things. With great love .  Which is part of a very big thing - raising a fam...

Day 18

I've been doing the 30 day praise challenge, that my friend introduced on her blog . It has been really good focusing on all the different reasons we should praise the Lord. Today, day 18, couldn't have come at a better time (well, it would have worked for several other days, but today especially). The verse to start off the devotion is: Do not judge,  and you will not be judged.  Do not condemn,  and you will not be condemend.   Forgive,  and you will be forgiven.    Luke 6:37  Great verse for today, as I got smooshed into an elevator with Zoey. Seriously, the lady behind me couldn't have been any closer to me. I had to learn to get just a tiny bit of distance from her. Talk about uncomfortable. I get pretty frustrated with how rude people are, since my mobility is a bit limited due to bringing a small one along with me everywhere. I've had some close calls of getting on/off trains or trams, simply because no one wants...
