A small collection of pictures we did recently. Although many of them are available on our photo site, I guess it's more convenient to get them from here....


That pic was taken in the garden of my mother's house. It has something special, living animals, namely two cats. And actually seems like you can do everything with them, without getting a scratch. At least the cats are in some kind of balance.


The boy is having a good time. He enjoys whatever he's doing. And when he's smiling you cannot be angry with him anymore. Nature arranged it quite smart.


The cutie ....

It's almost 2 months since the last entry. Lately time passes by so fast and for Noah many new things are coming up, every day. The latest highlight is to play hide and seek. In our bedroom we have a palm tree, and behind that he's hiding all the time, waiting that somebody is trying to find him. Of course one can see him quite obviously but since his eyes cannot spot you he believes you can't see him. So cute.


Another new thing is that he wants to give water to all our flowers. Of course this might be not so good for them, but there's no chance to avoid it. We'll give him an empty bottle to water them.


He still so small. You can play tricks on him very easily because he completely believes in what you do and say. When we go to other children usually they want to get everything, the toys, the cookies just all. And Noah is giving it to them ..... very sweet. But still we are fighting with his teeth. Looks like a never-ending story. I lost meanwhile the count. Maybe we have something between 12 and 14 teeth, which are outside. For sure the last weeks nights have been disastrous.
Nevertheless we had some help lately to find a new flat. Although the contract is not signed yet and although we can stay there only for about 10 months we believe this is a good chance for a change. Anyway many things in the future are not clear yet and this might be only an interim solution. But it looks nice.
Another help we received is for getting a nice and cheap ticket to go to the Grandparents in Lebus. That'll be in the first half of April.
In the middle of May we are planning to go to Budapest visiting a bunch of people from Beatrice's side. And of course, like last time, I have the chance to visit some yoga class again. Sounds promising. Beatrice wants to send me to a Thai masseur. Hmmm.
My dissertation approaches the final stage now. End of February I had the presentation of the complete validation in front of some 20 people at the institute. But it wasn't me who was presenting but my students. And besides some small weaknesses it ran quite smoothly. Although the time spent was especially in the last week tremendous. Anyway, I hope to never touch again chapter 1 and 2 for the rest of my life. When all is working well, I might be able to finish the complete thing in about 1 week. We'll see.
