German wonders & Other Life Things

I am sitting here eating German Hazelnut yougurt because I am not buying American yogurt in single quanities and it is way too expensive to boot. As I am sitting here, I realize this stuff is actually really good. I bought four lil' cases of four different flavors. I love yogurt, so this works for me. It is a bit odd until you realize you mix it and the Hazelnut stuff is on the bottom. We get some of our produce at the commissary from Germany and our eggs and cheese from Denmakr - so it's very interesting. I just love being able to experience culture in such a simple ways. So, my advice - DON'T KNOCK IT UNTIL YOU TRY IT, when it comes to FOOD.

On the other front, the house just keeps getting better and better. I am trying to clean it daily rather than wait on things. It is a bit of a pain, but having white tiles in my kitchen and bathroom sure make my OCD self do it. We put a gate up and Logan is learning to play in his room. It is a bit tough to put things away and get stuff out of the way with a toddler at your feet. But we're all figuring it out.

He is sleeping very well in his new room and new toddler bed. I love that he now has space to be a kid in there. His other room was so small that I was glad he only spend 6 months in it. That whole apartment never felt like home and when we got back from the states, the damage made that feeling even worse. So, now I am just happy that my apartment finally, truly, is a home for us.

We will probably decorate for Christmas this weekend, not sure about the tree part though. I would like to get a small table top tree. I know that sounds strange, but I have Kid distructo living with me and don't want to have to say,"No," every other second, but we'll see.

So..Life is great!

Kid Destructo and His Dad. Just be glad you don't have Poppa Destructo, we are still hearing about the time he knocked over Mom's tree.
