I have lots of photos for you so let's get started :)

01/12 - I am in super baby mode !!! My next door neighbour gave birth to a gorgeous baby boy this afternoon and I decorated the front garden (together with DH) with lots of blue !!!



01/13 - The stork in our front garden to let everyone know in the neighbourhood that Kris has been born.



01/14 - The card to announce the birth of the son of our neighbours. So cute :) !



01/15 - This is a little part of our livingroom. I want to change the livingroom (new couch, new colors) but DH isnt convinced yet. Still got a few months to convince him ! :)



01/16 - I went shopping to the cutest babystore we have here in The Netherlands. The store is called 'Lief!' (which means sweet) and luckily they are very expensive otherwise I would've bought all the items in the store !! haha



01/17 - My son Jasper was home late from going out to dinner saturday evening and had to get up early to go swimming on sundaymorning so I wasnt surprised he fell asleep in the afternoon. Finally a photo without him looking goofy :)



01/18 - I see this login screen way too often ! :)



01/19 - I bought some donuts this morning and I can only say that they look delicious. I havent tried them yet but I know I will as soon as I have posted this message to my blog !!


That's it from me :) I hope you've enjoyed my photos and see you again next week !!

I made a huge mistake today. I took a photo with bad lighting. The rose in the photo is red ! Yes, red but with bad lighting it turned out pink/fuchsia. My apologies. I will probably post another photo of the gorgeous flowers my husband gave me tomorrow :)

Today was a day for snowfun here in The Netherlands. We got lots of fresh snow during the day and it was decided to make an iglo. I'm game. I always take photos and this is a great chance to get a nice photo of my son (or so I thought !! haha). As soon as my son spots me with a camera his mood changes. He hates having his photo taken and lets me know. I just browsed through all the photos I took today and this photo was the best photo of my son :) haha


I guess (hope !!) that this is normal behavious for a 6 year old boy ???? I just wonder if my son will keep behaving like this whenever he sees me with a camera.

I've spend the last two nights sleeping on the couch. Don't worry, I am not having marital problems but I am having problems with my chronic illness. I find that I sleep better on the couch when my achalasia bothers me. Not that I get a lot of sleep on the couch. haha I tend to watch tv till 2 in the morning and then fall asleep. I have to wake up at 6.45 so those are short nights. Anyway, since I sleep on the couch from time to time I decided to have a pillow & duvet in the closet downstairs. That gave me an excuse to shop for a cutie duvet cover and I got a very girly one :) I'm the only one who uses it so no complains from DH about a pink-ish duvet cover.


I love polkadots !!! :)

I love taking photos outside.........even when it's freezing. It is a bit too cold to venture out into the woods which are just 5 minutes away from our house so I decided to make some photos in front of our house. I love taking photos when there is snow but there isnt a lot of snow in this photo. The orange berries really stand out though.


Well, you can see some snow :)

Wednesday is pizza night in our household. Mainly because DH doesnt like pizza at all and he's to work late on wednesday :) I make my own pizza but I do buy 'instant' pizza dough. haha I tried to make that from scratch ones and it took way too long for me and now I found some really good dough and when the pizza comes out of the oven it tastes just like the pizzas in my favorite pizza restaurant. So I guess they lost a customer. LOL The pizza has two different flavors. One is just the basic pizza and the other part is with lots of gorgonzola. My favorite :) Hmmmmmm.


Can you see the gorgonzola in the back. So good !!! :)

With the cold weather outside I tend to get very dry skin so I need to hydrate my skin a bit more. I never really did this but yesterday I decided it was time to buy a hydrating creme because my skin looked awfull. I asked for advice in the shop and they told me to buy a creme from L'Oreal. Hey, you can sell me almost anything so I bought it. I do notice a difference already so I guess she sold me a good creme :)


Oh, this is a super hydrating creme !! LOL Whatever works, right ???

Do you ever buy something and in the back of your mind you think that it's probably a bad idea because you will probably get a large bill after you bought it ?? Well, remember what I just bought ?? A new digital camera and guess what happened to my DH ?? He broke off a piece of one of his molars, he went to the dentist today and we got a nice estimate for a 'kroon'. I have no idea what the english word for it is but I guess they are going to cover the broken molar with a fake molar. Something like that. I told DH to just make the appointments and get it over and done with. Luckily we do have insurance but it's not 100% covered. Better start saving some $$$ or perhaps return my camera ?!?!? :)

This might look like a really bad photo to you all but I took this photo while I was sitting on my couch and used 10x optical zoom and 40x digital zoom with my camera. I've seen worse photos with digital zoom :)

I love the berries in this photo with the dove and the snow :) The berries give the photo a bit of color.


Like I said, it is not the sharpest photo but I did think it deserved to be on my 365 blog :)

We bought a new camera today. Woohey !!! I now am the proud owner of the Canon Powershot SX120 IS. I do have to say that I was a bit disappointed with the photos taken inside because a lot were blurry. I might have to use the flash a bit more often. Going to give the camera a few more days to convince me and otherwise I am going to return and trade it for another camera for sure :) Macro works like a treat and I love using macro.

My second photo of 2010 is a photo of my sons lunch :)


He was enjoying it very much :)

First I want to wish you all a Happy New Year !!!! 2010 is here and I decided to give Project 365 another go :) Will I finish it this year, I have no idea but I am going to try my hardest.

Here is my first photo for Project 365, 2010 :)


New Years Eve 2009 was the first New Years Eve where we bought fireworks. Mostly for our son because he was so excited about it :) Ofcourse you have to buy Astronauts and that is exactly what we did.

Wishing you all the best for 2010. May it be an amazing year for all of you!
