Last night Lisette felt something "wrong" and she called the doctor who came around to check on things but we were lucky to have more time to finish the house. A lot of things happened the last weeks and I was not able to wright anything because I was so busy with things.. The neighbour Cor came to help me out with preparing the ceiling in the "old" part of the house so that the builders can make one new ceiling. We also went to Hulst again to visit grandma and granddad who celebrated his birthday. Maaike and Jaap and the kids were there too and Nilsand Wende had a great time playing with Maartje and Guusje. Grandma was still not well and the noise did not do any good so dad took the kids to the windmill in Hulst and we were lucky, the windmill was open for visitors and we all climbed the small stairs to the top. The miller explained to us how the windmill worked in the old days and the kids listened and were alowed to wind a small device that explained what the windmill did when it worked. In the mean time Jaap worked hard cleaning the drive way and the pavement and I went with my dad to the shops to buy a new drive way light. The week after, Nils and Wende slept over at Maartje and Gussje (again) and Mom and dad went to Ikea to buy flooring planks. The next day Jaap came over to help us (again) with painting our new bedroom and laying out the flooring planks. The bedroom is now almost finished and we are able to use our own bathroom. The neighbours Maja and Joost al also back from their holiday in Africa. (They allowed us to use their house for 2 weeks... that was grand! And we needed that...) From now on we still have to use the caravan to cook our meals but we can take a shower in our own home! A lot of news and I still haven't written down everything.. When will our newborn to be come, what will be finished...??? It's a stressfull time.
