Well Tina and Ric sent the girls a slide and they love it. Sadly I suck and injured a baby during it so there is a bit of screaming in the video but so far the girls have loved it(when the weather is actually nice) and it has become a permanent attachment to our pool.

Apples in the trees
During our bike rides and walks I once showed the girls that there are apples in trees! Yep I add the exclamation point because they are now obsessed with these things. During walks it is always a hunt for apples and even though they are so bitter I can’t even put a bit in my mouth they actually eat them because there just soo cool… When we got home I cut up the apples in our slicer and were using our massive pile for toys and all kinds of fun.
We even learned that apples stick to your face and hair how cool.
Yep it is pretty funny

Todays adventures and mishaps
We started the morning early early thinking we were going to goto my dad’s they started a warm pool special vegetable diet for Amy and baked fattiness for yours truly. We sprung outta bed at 5:30AM ran around woke the girls up really early and started packing. Taking them for a trip like such is like a camping trip water bottles, diapers, snacks, wipes, blankeys, pacifiers, and lots of other random things.
Well on the second of three busses to make it there Chloe decided to stand in the stroller when I made her sit a few times she cried well rather screamed her fucking ass off and let me warn you I think I have the loudest babies in the world. It is very embarrassing and frustrating for me and two stops before our destination I said screw this crap and we turned our paths around out of frustration.
When off the buss Chloe got in trouble and I definitely hurt her feelings but I made her sit. They both got quiet for some time and then we decided when almost home to let them play since we were stocked for a day trip.
Was rather annoying as after this incident they were both soooo good and happy and talking away they make you feel bad pretty quickly for being mad at them. They started running around playing dancing singing jumping in muddy puddles and all kinds of other things kids do.
We stopped in a sandwich type shop ordered some halusky which is basically flour balls, ham, and sauerkraut fried up and they didn’t like it.. Then we ordered em cinnamon roll and they didn’t like it… Yeah I know what kid doesn’t like cinnamon rolls? We then ran off picked apples from trees found some weird peach tree and then some chickens. Yep chickens and it turns out Chloe liked bringing the chickens peaches and they seemed rather happy about this.
Chloe was running really far away to a peach tree to get a peach then running way back and actually sticking her hands in the fence and really feeding them giggling and laughing the whole time we just sat back and let them play with the chickens…
We got em home fed them some ramen noodles and they were ready for there nap actually ran up to bed and crashed.
Chloe things her toybox is a bus for some strange reason and sits in it with the lid on yelling buss buss buss… Amy can’t get enough of how cute that is and we both can not figure out why she thinks it’s a bus but hey I guess it’s best not to try to figure these things out sometimes.
Kids will give you extreme levels of frustration followed by extreme levels of happiness I would say more of a rush then a mountain climber.

Finally have our internet (why all these back posts now getting uploaded)
Well it took awhile as we are a bit picky we were rejecting the easy already installed internet at 4MB down and rather have the below speed for half the cost of what others are paying.
I must say never had this fast of internet and with such a long gap of connectivity and our general obsession with the internet we are staying home today I think haha yeah internet.
Posting these videos surfing the web and downloading our TV is well amazing!
For those in Czech JMnet.cz is amazing service guy spoke english helped me put on new antennas on router and tested each crevice of the house for best WIFI signals. Very good service
Moving outta the crib
We decided with the move that we were going to force them and us to get them sleeping without a crib. Seems it twas a good idea because they have adjusted very well to there new pullout bed.
Here is me waking em up this morning.
Rather long video but this is my morning routine wakin everyone up. I have learned to let the babies wake up there grumpy morning mommy saves me some harsh words and hurt feelings.

Jumpin up and down in muddy puddles
They did learn all about this task though and when I took them on a bike ride through country fields as far as the eye can see I finally took a break to let them run free and wholly crap it started raining a bit and then comes the muddy puddle and they both RAN ran ran and started jumping. I admit I was a bit ill prepared and this wasn't just a muddy puddle but a country muddy puddle.
After they got passed there girly crap I keep trying to shake from them about getting dirty well they got dirty. They were both whining like normal for me to clean there hands but I had no towels and mud all over me already so I simply said what do you want me to do and then they started painting me in mud yeah!
Good thing the bike rider has a nice rain cover but the girls did mud the hell outta it but I figure if something like that is clean your a crappy parent pretty simply ericolosphoy.
Seems this muddy puddle jumping is a phenomenon:

Our new car/bike/rickshaw(amy calls it that)
Well even though it may be financially stupid for us at this stage in time I did decide to get this as our new place has really slow roads and surrouned by bike trails, lakes, playgrounds and what not but everything is such a walk. Plus my officially fat self(yes I had exam at DHL I am officially fat) can use the exercise.
I of course bought them helmets and to all the haters I am not stupid I go very slow and more or less treat it as a convenient stroller.
We were a bit concerned about the fuss of the helmets but so far after a couple times they just learned they have to and don’t fight at all YEAH.
It even has a trunk ha-ha so cool!
Some fake action shots of me strolling around the bus stop while Amy was waiting to leave.
It surprisingly turns really easy and other then the starting isn’t really that hard to tote around.
Really nice kids and parents place by our house
Yep about a 10 minute walk or a 2 minute bike ride we have a large park with adult entertainment(not in the sense your thinking pervert) including a bar with snacks and some live cooking along with basketball, volleyball, soccer, good service, chairs in beach sand, ropes course, putt putt golf…
For the kids there are trampolines of various sizes, outside house, swings, sand and tables, slides, kids bikes, and more. Best part is it’s really safe you can just let them run and run and run with no concerns in most of it as it is surrounded by fields. The girls have lots of fun of course and even love all the flowers in the fields. Yep the are girls somehow obsessed with flowers and have to sniff and pull them all then run around for some reason rubbing them on there checks.
Jumping up and down on the trampoline
As expected they love this little house.
Some boy showed Coco the door bell so she is obsessed with this and somehow if you remember a long long time ago we used to make them go “ding dong” and bob there heads funny and without ever re- mentioning this they remembered it and were doing head bobbles…
My god they love the trampoline. Especially Claire who can surprisingly for her size and age keep up with the big kids when they are flipping. She really doesn’t care about being tossed all around. Coco is starting to get the hang of it.
This little terd decided to sneak into the trunk and take out both of there baby blankets then bring one to coco. This is naughty as they know these are not allowed here but she is awfully sneaky.
This led to horrible crying
This is what they do when I say “are you sleeping”

We have officially moved
Our new place is well pretty nice I must say. The living room is rather small but it has a nice homy feel and an upstairs to give the girls a far away private playing place and bedroom. The summertime amenities are well a dream and a fenced in backyard with a really cool landlord who doesn’t care that we have a pool and use the backyard as we wish.
For now we even got a clicker to the garage which stores my bike for a quick escape and the house due to it’s being new is in good shape with new appliances etc.
Pardon the mess really we are still moving in and well I think we are calling this stage #4 of the official process.
We were able to fit the sofa and with some really good planning and insight from Hana we did make the best of the living room and it actually feels alright after a few moving around.
This is the other angle as shown above with a computer desk and surprisingly no wires showing yeah t
o me.The large window shown leads to the backyard and yep we do redneck it a bit and leap out the window to the backyard to save a rather long walk around to the fence in the back.
After a mount and remount I did get the TV above this picture is actually a swing to the right of the photo above and sits above our dining room table.
Swing the camera to the right again and this is our messy kitchen. Has a new dishwasher fridge built into the cabinet setup and lots of storage and nice shelves.
Missing bathtub but the place has two bathrooms well I guess 1.5 as only one has a shower but this is the main one.
The water pressure blows ass chunks.
Yep these are two separate flights of stairs.
I got yelled at really badly for doing a shitty job but we had an issue where there is gapping large holes and in the back the railing does not even goto the wall so I had to drill a board in buy some netting and rope and well even though I got yelled at I would say I did a good job as this was hard nothing to anchor it in a lot of places.. I just got done with this actually.
Yep here is out our window to the fenced in backyard and yep that is the pool we bought. There are some poles and a sun roof which still needs up but it is all good and ready and been used a lot already!.
