Busy busy busy lady (and a few photos!)

So the last post up was about me getting locked in the toilet. It was about time I blogged again, since that whole adventure was over A MONTH AGO. Especially since I got a concerned "WHERE THE ... ARE YOU?". Which flattered me, but it also made me realize I missed blogging.

First; the husband replaced all our door handles, so no more risk of getting locked in any room. I did not realize door handles cost a fortune, and we are now eating bread & butter for the rest of the year.

I promise though, I have a good excuse for not blogging. Several actually.

First, I have 2 little ones and a 3rd one on the way. I'm already 7 months pregnant. Though physically I'm doing fine, this is by far the most exhausting pregnancy ever.

Besides that, I have been asked to teach a semester at my former college (on freelance basis). Which I did and LOVED! It's a class about debating, communication and speaking in public. I got a some really cool feedback from the students. This Thursday is the last class. It's a class for evening students and they're quite awesome. I'm sad to leave the class and hope they ask me again next year!

Also, I've been working on my baby sign classes. Signing with babies is very uncommon in The Netherlands. So besides trying to teach people how to sign, I also have to explain it quite a lot. It's fun! And I recently gave a class about it to professional care givers to children. It was awesome. I have a website, but it's Dutch: www.zingspeelgebaar.nl. I'm working on a translation.

And of course there's my regular job; my 2-day work week. Upcoming Monday & Tuesday are my last days before my pregnancy leave.

So it looks like I'll be having some more time to prepare for baby #3, to relax, hang out with Roo and Monkey AND blog.

Besides all the busy stuff, we finally enjoyed a spring day relaxing; at the zoo!

Some photos:


Thank god for the glass!


Grasshoppers!

Anyway, I hope to blog a little more soon. I've missed you guys!
