The Northhouses: Oman
http://thenorthhouses.blogspot.com/2011/03/oman.html
Monday, 7 March 2011. The boys had a week school holiday, so time to hit the road again! This time we went to Oman, by plane. You can drive, it is about 9 to 10 hours, but you have to drive trough Saudi Arabia. I am not allowed to drive there, and have to wear an abaya. Also it is quite a hassle at the border to get a visa for Saudi, usually it is a long wait. So we took the easy option and flew. So what did we do? Another hike was in a Wadi. That is a valley that in rainy season is full with water a...

Matty's Muses from Manch. Our somewhat boring lives in the Granite state have become way more interesting.Matty's taking over the blog! Wednesday, August 18, 2010. A few weeks ago while on vacation, we went to the beach in The Hamptons. Here are some pictures of our adventure, Matty loved the water! Wednesday, August 11, 2010. There's nothing better than the taste of sweet corn on the cob available in the summertime. Either way it still makes him happy. Sunday, August 8, 2010. Long time, no post.

Yesterday Matty received a Christmas card in the mail.it was postmarked Manchester NH and had no return address. All the card said was "hoping this helps Matty have a Merry Christmas" and inside was a Toys R Us gift card for $60! We have NO idea who sent this and would like to thank them in person! Whoever the mystery "Santa" is, THANKS!

Matty's Muses from Manch. Our somewhat boring lives in the Granite state have become way more interesting.Matty's taking over the blog! Tuesday, February 16, 2010. It's been a long time. We have been working on trying to get Matty to be a better napper. He has been sleeping better at night but still isn't a great napper.Slowly he has become more agreeable to napping in his crib as seen here. Finally, Matty asked me to show a picture of his new spongegbob pajamas. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Northhouses: Lars’ surgery (long version)
http://thenorthhouses.blogspot.com/2011/05/lars-surgery-long-version.html
Saturday, 21 May 2011. Lars’ surgery (long version). So when the pediatrician told me he referred Lars for surgery to the state hospital, I had an “uh oh” feeling. Lars had an undecended testis. Usually this is discovered by birth, quite often nature repairs it itself, and if not surgery is usually done when the boy is around 1 year old. Poor guy was so hydrated he only wanted to sleep the last couple of hours before surgery. It surprised me they could find a vein to put in the IV. It is a routine operat...

The Northhouses: christmas cookies
http://thenorthhouses.blogspot.com/2011/02/christmas-cookies.html
Wednesday, 2 February 2011. The boys went to a serious cookie baking class in one of the hotels here. They helped making the dough, but the best part by far was the decorating. They had a lot of fun, each in their own way. (Lars very quick, Olav very precise and Nils somewhere in between) They even got a “cookie baking certificate”. Here a picture with the beautiful cookies. Home is where you take it. By Laura Amiss (www.lauraamiss.com). View my complete profile. 3 jongens en twee vogeltjes.
