Hoffs All-In: July 2009

Summer time has arrived! .................and now it's gone again. Oh well that's life in Belgium hey LOL!!! But life goes on right? Indeed! And lots has happened since our last blog:
  • I started back at work on 15 June and thanks to our super Nanny, Maeva, the twins daily routine has remained cool and zen (which also translates to me remaining cool and zen because I don't need to run about like a mad thing trying to beat the traffic morning and night to drop off or pick up the little ones from the creche)
  • Nikita and Joakim have joined the local Scouts club and are looking forward to Scout camp at end of July. They're also on summer vacation too now so they're coming into the office with me each day where they're looked after nicely along with hundreds of other Belgacom littlies while all the mums and dads are working on 'important' stuff:)
  • Christian is busy busy as ever travelling between Belgium and the UK in his never-ending bid to pick up cars and parts for go-mini.be. Actually, his company has been quite popular with the media types these last couple of months! Look out for a vampire-themed short film coming to cinemas soon.............there are a couple of his minis featuring big time and if u read flemish, check out last weekend's edition of De Standaard (the one with the breaking news about Michael Jackson) because there's a 6-page insert featuring - you guessed it, minis out of go-mini!
  • And of course Louie and Jules are growing well. They're now 5 months and we're introducing solid feeds to their daily routine. Oh and did I mention that they're now sleeping right thru nights? BLISS!
In a couple of weeks we'll be heading off for our annual pilgrimmage to Ebeltoft, Denmark. Big on the agenda is the twins baptism on 9 August. It's going to be a great occasion as two of Christian's cousins will also baptise their newborn babies at that time too. Lovely culmination of a very productive year ah-hem:)

In the meantime tho' it's heads down and getting on with the daily business of managing work demands with those of very full home life. Thankfully, all are happy happy and in very good health. Touche du bois que ca continue!!!!!!

aww bless!!
