Popoludnie so skautmi.../ Afternoon spent with the boy -scouts...

Už dlhší čas rozmýšľame o tom, že dáme našich chlapcov na skauting. Dnes sa nám naskytla príležitosť prežiť popoludnie so skautmi a tak sme to využili.
Mali pripravené rôzne súťaže pre 4-členné družstvá. Tie si deti vytvárali samé, ale podmienka bola, že mali byť zmiešaní skauti s neskautmi.
Z našich chlapcov mal odvahu súťažiť len Maťko. Tomáško odmietol a ostatní sú ešte malí. Po zaregistrovaní mohli začať...

It's been a while since we were playing with the idea of putting our boys in scouting.Today we had a chance to spent our afternoon with local scouts, so we took advantage of it.
The had prepared four competing groups, mixed with scouts and other kids.
Out of our four boys, the only brave one was Matko. Tomas did want to have to do with it and the two others are still a bit young.
After the registration, we could start...

Kým Maťko súťažil, Tomi sa prizeral a Ľubko so Šimonkom bicyklovali...
Myslím si, že skauting je pre chlapcov veľmi dobrý. Budeme o tom ešte doma rozprávať. Bola by som veľmi rada, ak by sme mali doma skautov.

While Matko was competing, Tomas just watched, and Lubko and Simonko rode their bikes...
I think, that scouting would be great for our boys. Will try to talk about it at home. Having boy-scouts at home, would make me one happy mom.

Triedila som.../ I've been sorting...

Niektoré vlny som mala doma, niektoré boli ešte u mojej mamky. Tento tyždeň som si ich priniesla a dnes som to celé potriedila... Je toho riadna kopa. Môžem pliesť a pliesť a pliesť...

I had some yarn at home and some at my mom's house. This week, I brought all of it with me and did some sorting. It is a pretty sized pile. Now, I can knit and knit and knit....


Háčkovaná čiapočka pre Mišku 1.../ A crochet hat for Miska 1...

Kúpila som pletaciu priadzu na čiapočku pre Mišku. Rozhodla som sa pre háčkovanie. Je to prvý krát, doteraz som háčkovala len malé veci, kvietky, papučky pre bábiky, takže sama som zvedavá, čo z toho výjde. Zatiaľ sa mi to páči. Odfotím aj hotové...

I bought some crochet yarn to make a hat for Miska. I decided to crochet it. It is the first time, since till now I only crochet tiny things, such as flowers, shoes for dolls. I am curious myself, how this turns out.
I will post one that's finished too...

Budúci prváčik Maťko.../ First-grader to be - Matko...

Ako rýchlo to ubehlo... Nedávno som si ho priniesla z pôrodnice a už o chvíľu pôjde do školy... Včera sme boli spolu v meste vybrať tašku. Domov si ju hrdo niesol a už teraz sa nevie dočkať, kedy bude konečne môcť ísť do školy.

How this even happened... Just recently, I brought this little boy from hospital and he is ready for a first-grade just in few months...
We spent some time in town picking school bag yesterday. He carried it home all proud and already cant wait to start school.

Aj ja sa teším, lebo učiť Maťka je radosť. Dnes som vytiahla xylofón aby som zabavila Mišku. Maťko sa pridal a za pár minút sa naučil pesničku, ktorú potom hral sestričke...

I am excited too because it is pleasure to teach Matko. I pulled out xylophone today, to play some for Miska. Matko came in and in just few minutes he learned and remembered a song to play for his little sister...

Výlet do ZOO.../ Trip to the ZOO...

Po dlhšom čase som si znova sadla k počítaču. Posledné dni boli časovo dosť náročné. Takmer sme neboli doma, odchádzali sme ráno a prichádzali až večer.
Včera sme napríklad boli v ZOO - prvý krát v tomto roku a prvý krát s našou Miškou. Bol nádherný deň, teplý, slnečný a hlavne trávili sme ho spolu celá rodina...

I sat down to the computer after a while. Out last few day were quite busy. We were hardly at home, leaving in the mornings and returning at night.
For example, we spent the day at the ZOO yesterday. It was a first time this year and first time with our Miska. What a beautiful day it was, warm, sunny, and mainly spent all together as a family...

Naše dnešné plány.../ Today's to-do lists...

Dnes som mala doma len 3 deti - Tomáška, Matúška a Mišku, ostatní boli u babky. Ráno sme si spolu premysleli, čo nás dnes čaká. Napísali sme si plán a pustili sa do práce...

I only had three kids at home today - Tomas, Matus and Miska. The other two were at grandma's house. We planned our day in the morning, wrote up our to-do lists and started the work...

Maťko upratoval. Najprv sa mu nechcelo ale potom sám od seba umyl zrkadlá...

Matko was cleaning up. First he didn't feel like it, but then he even clean the mirrors...

Tomi sa učil, má síce prázdniny, ale ďalšie dni budú dosť nabité a tak je lepšie sa pripraviť do školy už dnes.

Tomas was working on his homework. Even though the Easter break jsut started, we will have some busy days in front of us, so it was better to prepare for school today.

Pustili sme sa aj do zdobenia perníkov... Na to, že sme to robili prvýkrát to dopadlo celkom slušne.

Later, we started to decorate our cookies... For doing it for the first time, we did pretty good.


Bola aj rozprávka pre Mišku. Tentokrát Maťkova verzia Červenej Čiapočky...

We didn't forget about the fairy tail for Miska, this time Matko's version of Little Red Riding Hood...



Večer sme sa zahrali na holičstvo...

We play barber shop in the evening...


No a keď už všetci zaspali, mňa čakala ešte takáto kopa prádla na žehlenie...

After a busy day, when all were sleeping, this is what was waiting for me to iron...

Medovníčky.../ Easter Cookies (gingerbread like)...


Recept:
150 g medu;
1,5 dcl vody;
250 g cukru;
- prevaríme , necháme trošku vychladnúť a pridáme:
600 g hladkej múky (špeciál);
1KL sódy bikarbóny;
2KL perníkového korenia;
1 dcl oleja.
Masu dobre vypracujeme, necháme 2 hodiny odstáť.
Vyvaľkáme, vykrajujeme preníčky, dáme na papier na pečenie, pečieme pri 180°C asi 7-10 minút. Po vybratí z rúry ešte horúce potierame vajíčkom (krásne sa potom lesknú).

Recipe:
150g of honey
1.5 dcl water
250 g sugar
- set on the stove and cook for a bit, then let sit to cool and add:
600 g flour (all purpose)
1 mocha spoon of baking soda
2 mocha spoons of gingerbread spice
1dcl oil

All mix well and let sit for 2 hours. Then roll out and cut out your easter cookies. Put them on baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake at 180 Celsius for about 7-10 minutes. When done and still hot brush them with egg (they will be pretty and shiny).
