Pics from Bjoern

Pics from Bjoern at Bronner's xmas shop with sesame street





At home... Zoe is totally into dancing now. She even says 'dance' and reaches for your hands but we can't dance all day so she found another way to dance with somebody ;)... Clever girl

More Shopping...

I mean I'm so lucky :)... Frank paid to much on the mortgage payments that we got some money back and I basically used this money to go shopping *lol*... I think I was most excited for this outlet yesterday since I've never been there and it's a sister outlet to the one in Chicago I loved so much and it turned out... this one as well :)... I LOVE IT.... Bjoern with Erni and Bert :)

4 huge bags!!! Unbelievable... and together we spent only about $300 with all the sale going on and I had a coupon as well :)

Afterwards we went to the 'German Town' Frankenmuth and took a little walk and had some dinner.

Zoe and I enchanted ;)

Then after dinner we stopped quickly in the world's largest christmas store ;)... it was just amazing, Bjoern was overwhelmed how awesome it is here :)

The Valentine's Tree

My little guy was already out... exhausting day ;)

Zoe did soooo well... she wouldn't touch anything in the store as we told her over and over again not to touch anything and she understood... she was in candy land *lol*... all these 'balls' she was thrilled. By the way, the pants are her 'emergency' pants since she spilled water over her jeans... just letting you know I dress my daughter somewhat stylish normally ;). And I bought a very good thing on WED for the stroller ;)... instead of buying a portable DVD player I only had to buy an Iphone holder for the stroller and I have entertainment for Zoe... bad thing... she does everything else but watching her sesame street ;)... see for yourself, you'll love it.

My little paci-monsters ;)

Dancing Queen

Starbucks and Shoes

Well of course we had to go at least once to Starbucks so Bjoern can get a real good american coffee ;) I'm of course all for a starbucks anyways *lol*. Zoe enjoyed some nuts and water... 

Me and my lil handsome boy :). Now that I look at this picture closer with his blue eyes and my brown eyes... looks kind a cool :)... hope his eyes stay blue since we have a brown eyed girl already ;).

And I extended my shoe collection... it's been a long time since I bought some new shoes... the last ones are my 'running shoes' and they're already all worn out from my daily walks... time for some shoe treats ;)

Shopping again

This time we went up north to an outlet shopping mall :)... and I even bought some clothes for myself and NOT for the kids *YEAH*... Zoe had a blast

The kids play area where we went to let Zoe play while I had to feed Henry

Little shoes that look exactly like Frank's *lol*... I was doing a joke that I would buy them and then Henry and Frank can run around with the same set of shoes, wouldn't that be cool? But no shoes for the kids this time ;)... I kept it together and didn't buy any...

Unsere Ausbeute :)... that's what we bought... lots of bags :)

After the mall we went to Marvins Marvelous Mechanical Museum... it had lots of machines that you can play. We had a good time and some dinner

We were trying to catch flying around balls and dump them into the little pot... Zoe got totally excited

Oh... balls...

Wow... you can get them out of the machine?

Bjoerni, I want more balls... please get me more...

Zoe got 4 balls and Bjoerni only tried 5 times ;)... good outcome as well... Zoe was beyond thrilled

Bjoern hit the jackpot

Trying to put some use to those weird tickets

Chillen out and looking at all these weird lights... Yes, we had Henry with us. We didn't forget him at home ;)

What a great day... and today we'll take it easy and cook some rouladen. We only go grocery shopping and maybe shoes with a Starbucks coffee ;)... tomorrow we'll have a big day ahead again. We'll go shopping at another outlet mall that is close to the 'german city' and the biggest christmas shop that is open 364 days / year! It'll be another long and fun day ;)

We built a snow man :)

Zoe found a new friend and a new phone with front facing camera :)

In the morning we went shopping and bought all the ingredients for our fancy dinners that we'll cook this week. At the moment the crock pot is boiling away some very awesome smelling food... can't wait to dig in, we're hungry!!! :)
In the afternoon we went for a walk... getting up from being lazy on the couch *lol*.

... and after shoveling the snow off the side walk we had a 'build the snow man bet' going... I told Bjoern to build a snow man with Zoe while I was shoveling and he came back around with this little tiny snow man... then I went ahead and showed him how to do it right!!! Yeah baby ;)... I still had it in me... it's been soooo long that I've built a snow man and I wanted to do it so badly already last winter... so here is the proof :)...
