Hei alle mine venner i Norge (fra Jonas)

Hallo mine venner hjemme i Norge

Nå er jeg litt over halv vegs inn i ferien vår i Canada. Første bilde her er fra vår første stopp vi hadde i Amsterdam. Der var det tusenvis av sykler, vi lånte også en og syklet rundt. Kjempe gøy!

Her er jeg og søskenbarnet mitt Ian

I bassenget der vi har hytta vår

Vi dro på telt tur sammen med han og familien hans til Osoyoous. Vi sov i telt i fire netter. Det var så kult!

En kveld hjemme hos dem hadde vi StarWars kveld. Vi leker starwars masse!

Her måtte jeg og pappa fikse en lekkasje i vasken på kjøkkenet. 

Lillebror sier også hei :)

Her fikk jeg vere med naboene til venner og ri på ponny. Dette er Janet leker masse med henne og noen ganger store broren hennes Jack. De bor rett over veien og har mye kult å leke med. Vi dro med dem til en vann park en dag også.  

Her hadde vi basseng fest. Her er jeg sammen med Ian og Ryan. 

Her var det leirskole i parken vi bor i. Det var gøy. De andre barna måtte også lære litt norsk. Jeg prøvde å lære dem sanger men de syntes det var vanskelig. Her snakker de bare engelsk. 

Her er det en kjempe stor kino! Det er 12 kino rom! Jeg har sett to filmer her håper jeg får se en til. Popcorn er godt

Her er jeg på stranda i WhiteRock etter overnatting hos bestekompisen min Ryan

En dag dro vi til Vancouver. Der er det masse store hus. Fant en kul lekeplass å leke i og etter det fikk jeg et spesielt eple, det hadde karamel og m&m's på, det var så godt. 

Koser meg masse her i Canada på hytta. Nå er det bare 1 1/2 månte til jeg kommer igjen ibarnehagen. Gleder meg til å se dere alle sammen.

Stor klem fra Jonas  

First class since October!!!

Well I did it! Managed to go try a class again. Thank you so much Karen for coming with me. You are kicking ass! Listen to your new trigger point lady. She is right :) you can do it! 

And thank you Toby for "pushing" me back into it. 

You two are both awesome, lucky to have you both as my friends

Thanks again

My body is more going like what the hell just happen? It hurts but feels so good at the same time. Can't wait for tomorrow lol

Came home to a fresh roasted wonderful chicken that I bought at the farmer up the road yesterday. Omg was it ever good. Marinated it with rosemary and basil, olive oil, salt and pepper 

Since yesterday.

Eric added some kale, mushrooms, pepper, broccoli and sweet potato too the bird today and voila dinner with grandpa on his deck. I think he really enjoyed that bird. He was all smiles. 

Now for some down time on our cabin deck. Johan was a bit needy tonight so now that everyone has gone to the movie in just gonna sit down have a little bit of red and Lindt 90% and enjoy my new book Why we get FAT. And what to do about it. New material :D Happy Happy 

It's been an other good day 

Johan discovered how to stick his tongue out today we all had a good giggle at that 

Funny guy. Wish he would nap better tho ;)

Jonas helped putting out sod in Auntie Venkes and Uncle Peters back yard 

Such a good little man I have there. 

Oh and see that man in the background that looks a scary lot alike the old caretaker. That's my good big man ;) 

He has been getting some really good progress on his game. Exiting times.  It's an other peacefull evening in Hatzic❤️

 

Update from Canada :)

Been a while since I've written a blog now. To update a bit. I've tried twice but both times it's shut down after writing a lot and I got frustrated and diet want to spend more time on it. But now I feel like I have some time to give a little update.

We are doing so many things here and getting stuff done. It's hard to believe we have been here for a month now. It scares me how fast it has gone by. Still have so much left, but already starting to think about going home and have to say I don't know where I feel the happiest. All I know is that we are so lucky to have all these wonderful people around us in two places to make us be able to call two places home.

Jonas is growing and enjoying life so much, playing with his friends and always making new ones.

Johan is smiling so much and getting exited about the world around him.

Eric is working and keeping busy all the time with his job, the cabin and family.

I'm busy with cabin and family stuff. Enjoying life 

Went for The Paleo Moms book signing in Vancouver with Carmen and baby 

Did a first aid class at the park. For DEA

Keeping on track with heathy eating. It is so much easier when we are around people that follow the same food ways as we do in some form. Some strickter, some less, but all understanding and eating clean with us. It's awesome.

Jonas helping daddy fix a leak in the kitchen sink

Getting times at the beach and elsewhere to relax 

 Cuddles with my baby 

Family outings. Here to Crecent beach

In the office with daddy.

Getting stronger. Playing with favorite toy Tussi

Got my very first bow, I kick ass btw ;)

Picking blackberries and making good deserts 

Good times with family around a Hatzic fire

New workout gear to get motivation ;)

Water park fun

And horseback riding with Janet from across the street.

Yes we are having a great time. 

Enjoying life with friends and family.

Okay well now the mosquitoes are getting to me so gotta pack it up laying in the field earthing. Try it out folks. Google it. 

Today's hardest choice

So went to do the big grocerie shop today. Go to get eggs....

Now you get all these signs telling you about the chickens/eggs quality. And the prize difference is huge! 

So what do I pick? What is cheapest and will feed my family for longer and what is more in our budget. Or do I spend more then twice the prize on the happy chicken?

The one sign I did not get in here was the organic ones also free range inside outside. 30 eggs was 7.29 I think for the cage chickens and 7.19 for 12 organic free range happy chickens... 

It was actually one of my biggest decisions today. I went for the yellow sign... Not organic but "happy" (?) chickens. 

Any views on this folks? What do you pick? 

The playground is the perfect gym

Out for an evening walk in one of my favorite parks. 

And I desided to do a little bit of workout. My plan is to get back into shape after pregnancy, and now my body feels ready for it! So went to the playground meet a deer.....

Did some squats, dips and chin ups lol they are pretty pathetic right now, but gotta start somewhere. Kinda frustrating but I have the best reason ever :) 

And now back to work! 

Chin ups you said. Ouch here we go! 

Bought two new books today 

Starting to read Earthing now, something that has completely stolen my attention now.

Very interesting 

Spent some quiet time alone with little man today as he has a cold and is feeling iffy. Not really crying but needing the comfort of his mamma. Stated at home while the others went for a dinner invitation :) nice with some quiet time too. 

Sat out in the sun for a while but it got too hot. Shade was better today. Had Johan out a couple of trips for some Earthing too ;) 

Good night from beautiful Kelowna 

Camping in Osoyoos

After some car trouble we finally arrived at the Nk'Mip camp sight 

Here from one of our paleo dinners. Greek night. It's so nice to go camping with people who are primal/paleo/AIP

Food is not a problem. 

Few years ago there would be hotdogs, chips, candy, granola bars and other easy junk food and "healthy" treats 

The men setting up camp 

Getting to know the play areas

Happy boys coming into our tent for a morning snuggle 

7 AM swim

Happy mommies walking down the Nk'Mip vineyard after a nice wine tasting and aperitizer on the patio.

So nice of the men to let us have this break:) We sure had fun

Bother and Sister cooking

One happy mamma 

This was my cheat for the trip. I can feel it but I sure missed a nice cold Strongbow on a hot summer night

Walked to Whitesands one day. Good exercise. 

The big kids went snake hunting with the dad's. They where so exited to see one 

Carmen was not so exited when she almost stepped on one going to the camping washrooms 

Gotta teach em' about caning life early. 

This was one happy camping baby

Never seen him so chilled 

Stopped by old friends in Penticton, they were so nice and took us out for lunch

Then we stopped by other friends of Eric and Carmen in Summerland

Now we are all back at Carmen's in Kelowna.

Chilling

This sure has been a fun trip. But tonight it's gonna feel good to sleep in a bed again

Thank you Carmen and Ray for letting us tag along on your trip
