Time, school, doors, rooms, Nate Berkus, married!

It seems every post of mine lately start with ‘sorry for being such a stranger, I’m back’. I’m not sure if this is going to be a tradition. I hope not!

Since we’re back from our Hawaii trip we have been seriously busy or tired. So, what have we been up too? The last 30 days in a nutshell:

First: what’s the time?
Hello 12 hour time difference! We still had like 5 days before we had to go back to work again. Those day were the craziest. We had SO much problems sleeping at night and NOT sleeping during the day. Those 5 days I had an average sleep of 3 hours. I was exhausted.
But there was a cure: WORK.
Who actually though that work is a medicine for jetlag (or anything for that matter)? After 2 days of being forced into the working rhythm: the jetlag was gone.

You mean, next week are school exams?
Preparing our trip, wedding and not to mention the arrival of iBaby has taken up a little of my attention. Tuesday after we came back from our trip I had to go to school. And I think my heart skipped a few beats when the teacher said: "So, this was our last class, good luck studying for your school exams next week."
Not only did I have exams, I also had to finish a paper I hadn’t even started working on yet. But I made it through. I think I passed the exams and I managed to send in my paper.

iRoom for iBaby
IBaby’s room was ‘doorless’. So my dad and Mr. Sweety together put in a door. Because everyone has a right to a door, right? Yay for my favorite men in the world!
We also rearranged our entire house. And made a 2 bedroom apartment our of a one bedroom apartment. And actually? We did not do a bad job at it. We don’t need Nate Berkus! (yeah, Oprah made it to Dutch TV a longgg time ago too).

Speaking of iBaby
We have to see our midwife every 3 weeks now. And we found out last time that iBaby is in a bit of a hurry. iBaby is already 1,5 to 2 weeks ahead of his or hers ehmm schedule. I don’t quit know what to do with that information. I promise belly pictures ASAP, because my cute belly is rapidly growing into a BIG belly. I can’t believe it is still another TWELVE weeks.

We’re married!
Last week our license arrived. Woohoo! ? Now we have to wait on the certificate with an apostil stamp so we can make our wedding legal here too.

Speaking of being married
I have to get used to my new name! Answering the phone is SO weird now.

Our last 30 days in a nutshell. I’m making sure I’m heading for more quiet times until iBaby arrives. Because I am truly a tad exhausted.
