Midsummer Came and Went

This was probably the calmest midsummer eve we've ever had, and probably the first one that wasn't spent at my grandparents summer cottage.
Instead we were at Tanja's mother's house and grilled some meat and pancakes.
But it was really nice and Aron enjoyed himself and Léa was calm all day.
She is by the way a very calm baby, mostly eat, sleep and poop all day long.

Had some trouble with the paintjob on the car but it seems to be clearing up now.
It's still a nice car in my opinion.

This coming weekend we'll all head down to my parents place and at the same time we'll probably spend some time at the summer cottage.

We'll see.
At the moment it's rainy and cold outside.
But midsummer was sunny and nice.

Family, car and don't download...

Now Tanja and Léa has been home for a couple of days (my wife corrected me and informed me that our daughter's name is spelled Léa and not Lea) now, and we're getting the feel of life with two children.

So far things are going fairly well, everyone is in good health, we have been able to sleep somewhat good during the nights and Aron hasn't shown any signs of being overly jealous towards the new member of the family.

Now we just hope that things keep on going well.

Yesterday was also the first time we as a family went to the playgrounds together, Aron enjoyed it immensely after several days of rain and hospital visits.

On a sidenote, we bought a new car last friday.
I'm a bit nervous about it still, but I thank God for it and hope it was a good deal.
It's the biggest economical decision we've made so far in our married life and it's an experience.
I hope it will serve us and others well and that it will keep going for many many years.
In only three years it will be completely paid for. :)

And as an ending to this here post, an alternative disclaimer regarding the evil crime of downloading:

Baby Coming Home

So, tomorrow Tanja and Lea will come home.
It is quite different this time compared to when Aron was born, that time I could prepare the home and make everything look nice and polished.
This time I'm happy if the place doesn't look like a complete bombsite with a jealous little big brother going half berserk.

And I have no idea how you take care of two kids, I mean one kid could sometimes be hard, how you do handle two of them?
But I've seen others do it, so I guess it's totally possible.

Well, anyway, I'll report along the long path of parenthood while we stride along it.
