~ MOM'S daily ~ #starkeMütter ~

This week is crunch week for the house. Saturday is THE. MOVING. DAY.!!!! 

My wonderful hubby is working very hard to get everything ready on his end and I've been packing, packing, packing on this end {and doing some unpacking in the new house!}! It does seem quite endless and the chaos that comes with packing is starting to drive me nuts. But there is a flicker of light at the end of this seemingly endless tunnel. I cannot believe our journey has taken us this far and that we'll be moving and living in the house we've been planning for almost two years! Craziness! 
It's amazing how much stuff a household has!
A few weeks ago, I applied with NUK to be a tester of their products and report on my blog. I was super excited, when I got an email from them saying they enjoyed my blog and would love to have me on their team of blogging moms! 

Today, I'll be introducing the first product they sent me.

MOM'S daily (click to read more - all in German though) is an orange and passion fruit juice drink filled with vitamins and minerals that busy moms need. I'm a HUGE juice-aholic. I drink juice for every breakfast and I was excited to try their vitamin-mineral-juice to help me through the stressful and long days of packing. At first, I was little bit disappointed with the initial taste of it. I was imagining something extremely delicious and don't get me wrong, it is very good, but maybe the orange flavor was a bit overpowering for me. I'm not always a huge fan of the flavor orange. HOWEVER, I am still excited to drink it every morning and I'm glad I have three more left in the fridge for the next few days. I feel like the price is a bit steep for a drink of this size. I'm not sure I would buy it again, unless it was on sale.

I really like how NUK is broadening out and coming up with a product for moms. It felt nice for them to recognize just how much moms do. They list how many hours of sleep a mom looses, how much breast milk a mom produces, how many calories a nursing mom burns, how many kilometers a mom walks to put a crying baby back to sleep, and how many diapers a mom changes. I appreciate them realizing how strong moms are. #starkeMütter #strongmoms

Thanks, NUK, for encouraging moms! Well done!

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...

a little check in on life over here

-- We had our "big reveal" on facebook. It looks like we'll be having another little girl! We're thrilled for a little sister for Zoey, plus the bonus of recycling all our baby girl clothes is awesome! But most importantly, baby is healthy and all is looking well!-- -- The weather here has been so great. We've been meeting lots of friends at playgrounds and parks and going for walks. It's fun to be able to play on the playground with Zoey now that she can walk and do things! But also very tiring for this pregnant mama! --  -- We've been doing lots of house things ... looking at doors, fences, different types of floors, kitchen appliances, etc. Next WEEK , they will start the digging part of building the house and then the following week , the basement will be built!! YAY, things are finally getting started!! So curious to see how all this is going to go. We stopped some new neighbors and introduced ourselves and let them now things wi...

Done w/ orientations!!

On Thursday, the last day of orientations was completed! All the new staff has had a busy last 3 weeks, but they were very informative (sometimes overload on information though). It feels great to be done with orientations and to be starting school. School starts on Monday and things at the school have been crazy trying to get things ready to go. There is a rather large construction project taking place at the school and we have been working on that since the construction workers are behind schedule ... we've been tearing off paint, repainting, cleaning, etc. My classes will not start until Thursday, since elementary has half days until then. I'm so thankful for the extra time to get things done and be prepared for my classes. I'm a bit unsure as of what to do in classes ... so I'm hoping I'll come across some great ideas! Prayers for this are greatly appreciated!
