Lexi and Lillian's World....: Goodbye to March and April!

Yes, I have been a delinquent blogger. Did you blink? March and April are now gone! A lot can happen in two months, but I feel that ours can pretty much be summarized in a few words... being sick, getting well, work and barnehage. As you know, I started back to work on 1.Feb and tried to hit the ground running, but sickness prevailed. February and March were pretty much "sick" months. Either Lillian, Lexi or I were sick. Tim managed to steer clear and nurse us back to health. However, over Easter, he fought off a cold which meant that Lillian and I fought it off too (our immume systems are the weakest of the four of us). Praise the Lord, we are finally well. Lillian had a touch and go cold in April with a bit of a runny nose, but the fever and cough (and everything else that went with it) seems to be gone. Of course, it helps that the sun is shining more and the temperatures are slowly rising. On the work-front (for me), it has been super, super, super busy (to put it mildly). I survived April and all of its challenges and (thankfully) May seems to have more breathing space. All of the sick leave in Feb and March didn't help the fact that April was going to be a busy month.

So, I haven't had the camera out as much as normal, but I still have a few good pics to share. Some blogger functions seems to have changed which means my pics got uploaded in date-reverse order. So, we will work our way backwards from today to the beginning of March. (The picture captions are now under the pics...)

Here is beautiful Lillian out on a walk today (in Feda). She loves to be outdoors and walks sooooo much more than Lexi ever did at a similar age. (Lexi always demanded to be carried...Lillian loves to walk and explore on her own two feet.)

Out on a boat ride today. The wind was a bit brisk!

Sorry that this pic turned - it is a great pic of Lexi and Luna on Easter Sunday afternoon

I think we had 25+ people at Lajla's house for the tradtional Easter Sunday hot dog roast and Easter egg hunt. We had gorgeous, milder weather. Tim even put up his new tent.
