Busy life

Not much blogging, but life is busy. Starting to get the hang is this new life with two kids. And enjoying it. Of course there are moments where you just wanna scream but when I see those little faces I forget all about it. 

Today I managed to make the dinner, but didn't eat it until 1 hour after it was done. Tired and fuzzy baby is the reason for that. Eric has been so awesome and made pretty much dinner everyday since we came home from the hospital, I'm very lucky I must say.
But I don't blog to much about it as I'm not cooking and half of the time I don't know how he has made it. Or I'm too tired to blog.

Anyways here was today's meal that I made

1.1kg of deer. Made with garlic pepper, rosemary salt and butter. Onion and mushrooms in the oven with it.
 
Wild rice

Broccoli and carrots 

And a little bit of salad with iceberg lettuce, paprika and tomatoes

Jonas and Eric ate when it was just done and Eric said it was very good. 
It was even good one hour after when Johan finally had desided to fall asleep. 
Turing into such a little person now.

First pregnancy photoshoot




So when I one day saw some underwater pregnancy pictures I thought that looked pretty cook and decided to try to get that done. So I wrote on a Norwegian Facebook group and asked if anyone was interested into doing a TFP shoot. I got contacted from 6-7 photographers. Where I ended up seeing two. One in Trondheim and one in Oslo. 
Here comes the results from the first shoot. 

Pictures by Jan Erik Bjorøy



Those are the two I liked the best

But here are 3 more that he sent to me

This was so much fun to do, but also very hard. Not easy to jump, hold breath, and try to keep your face natural. That was the hardest one I think.

Got one picture from the Oslo shoot but not posting that until I have more.

2 weeks

So little Johan is now two weeks old. 
He sure is a good baby. 
But Eric seems to think he is broken with only two kinds of volume, mute or screaming. Sleeps, poops and nurses. Boob is the best place it seems. 
Been little blogging over these past weeks but not really a priority. 
Been sticking paleo and been a lot better at it too. Now that my milk is growing the baby. I was pretty good in my pregnancy too but the crawings then sometimes took control and I had some treats. 
Gained about 15kg and have about 7 left now. No stress about that tho. 
I have already been able to do some small exercises and have no pain in my pelvic area anymore! YAY! 
No soccer wife here tho lol
Posting a few pictures here to show how I believe is more "normal" 
Not that she is not, but I think there are more of us that don't look like that after birth. 

  
That's the last picture before he was born. 4 hours before birth. Walking around in the hospital hotel bathroom working thru contractions


Bit dark but this is today, two weeks after birth. 


Two beautiful boys I've carried. So proud!


A fantastic family we have build ❤️

Thru this time it's been nice to have nice neighbours helping us out. 


A wonderful mother in-law that came all the way from Canada to help with everything and be there with me thru birth. Can't say it enough how lucky I am to have her in my life. 


Lots of love

Trout :)


Bought a whole trout today. Dressed it up with cilantro, lemon, dill, salt, pepper and of course butter

In the side we had cucumber salad, green salad, cauliflower rice and peas
Some sour cream ontop 


I also made a little appetizer with melon and Serrano 
Tasty!!  


Forgot to take a picture of desert but mad strawberries, blueberries, apple, pear and melon with cream. 

Jonas ate all his food, I'm very impressed.
The other day when we went to get Eric from the hospital and grandma from the airport we bought icecream, he had about haft and then he said he didn't feel like eating anymore. And that not even after a dinner. Today he chose to not have any Saturday candy and trade candy for gaming time. 
He has done that the last 3-4 Saturdays. So I'm very happy about that. It's cool to hear my kid talk about food, and knowing his body well enough to not overdue sugar when he gets it. 



My two gamers ❤️❤️

International waffle day!


Lovely waffles with butter, goat cheese,stirred strawberries and sour cream

Made sour cream waffles today
6 eggs 
One box sour cream
3 ts physillium
4 ts sourdough powder
1 dl almond flour
100 grams of butter
2 tsp cardemom 
4 ts shredded coconut
3 ts flax seeds
And about 1/2 dl coconut flour


One happy kid getting this for his dinner tonight



Also made some jam, frozen strawberries warmed and mashed with some xylitol and coconut oil. 
First time I've done this and I will for sure do it again. Jam with no sugar or artificial sweeteners. 

Xylitol is an awesome sweetener btw, it does not have that weird after taste and is sweet as sugar. I even ate some waffle hearts with only xylitol. Just like I'm used to getting waffles served in Norway. 
( now what I read on the box after was that it can be laxative... So guess I'll just have to wait and see how much is too much ;p )
