Funny Momichan ;-)

Momichan loves to be funny wearing her daddy's shoes ^^
This evening while daddy was looking tv she took his shoes and started to walk around inside home going to granny in the kitchen to show herself ^^


Our New House ^^

Since a couple of days we are living in my mum's home ^^
Today we finished the moving and right now nearly everything is organized, we still have many things to take from the old house and also we do not have the kitchen even if we have our fridge and here the little space we have, starts to be like a real house even if it's only 35 meters for the moment (new wall to enlarge up to 45 meters will be build next january).
Even if we do not have space we have and will have two things important: two big windows with sight on the garden, park, water and green and the sound of birds, crickets, the tapping of the rain on the roof when it is bad weather and the wind moving the leaves of the trees.
Momichan seems relaxed now, she has been a veeery gooood child yesterday and today and she sleeps very quietly all night long without awakening three times as she was doing since ever in the old house ^^

Crazy Momichan

We are finally moving !!!!
Today I had to leave for half an hour Momichan with granny because I had to go home to take some other stuff, thought that in the meantime granny would give her lunch.
I arrive granny's home and hear Momichan screaming desperately so I run inside and ask mommy why she is so desperate, she answers Momichan is just nasty and that she has tried everything but Momichan has refused to eat or drink anything !!!
The rest of the day is not better, I have to organize inside wardrobe the things and dresses I have taken from home and Momichan does not want to leave me and screams with tears.
I in the evening is the same, after meal I take her up in the bedroom to sleep, I had previously bathed her, changed nappy and put pijama, Momichan does not want to sleep even if she is tired and seems sleepy.
I get angry, also I have to put her bed again with the two removable bed sides (I had taken away one of the two because it seemed Momichan was big enough to climb up alone also in the previous camping bed she climbed out by herself so I thought it was better to help so that she could come out without danger but is doesn't work) because Momichan continuously gets out and is impossible to do anything I still have to eat and have to go go down laundry. She is so angry or desperate (we cannot understand really what she has) that she throughws up the dinner and the milk she had just sipped .... ! We have to do again shower and change completely !
I put her to bed again and she starts again to scream desperately !!!
I go down to eat and she goes on .... I go and take the fresh laundry and put another on to retire tomorrow morning, Momichan is still crying .... !!! GOSH !!! What the hell she has ????
Is it possible she is confused or worried because we are moving ? she still has so many of her things here, her dresses inside wardrobe and her toys, her favourite chair and little pelouche cat, but she seems not to carry, I make everything possible to make her feel home, and also we have been here thousands of times, she loves granny, so why she behaves like that ?
...................................................
It's one o clock in the morning, daddy is coming home now from work and Momichan finally has fallen asleep.
Tomorrow I will go to the doctor and tell everything hope she can give something to keep Momichan calm, tomorrow we have to go Ikea to take the minivan nand go home to carry away the furniture we need to take here, Momichan will have to stay with granny for much of the afternoon and I do not have any idea what she will do ....

Italy Koi Show 2010

(my sister with the judges in the koi pools, backside of home in the terrace)


Momichan is now international HEHE :)
The 6th june in Italy at my mum's home Italian Koi Meeting has been held.
And what does this have to do, you may say, with Momoko ?
well, we were there to take mum and go to the park for a pic nic and after in the afternoon we returned to make Momichan take her nap.
The garden was full of people, italian clients and judges arrived from Belgium to prize the best italian koi and ten pools full of koi belonging to clients. Little Momichan escaped from us and went to see the fishes, she loves the fishes :) while judges were taking fotos of the event.
Momichan had a great success with the judges who took her many fotos, you can see HERE in the belgic website of the Aquatechnobel Belgium :)

camping bed for Momo

Momichan everyday invent something, she is growing fast and she is curious.
As you know, we are moving in my mum's house now, bathroom is nearly finished and is already working, I already cleaned and filled with some of our belongings.
The bricklayer had to come today early in the morning to finish his work on the wall so it was best for us to sleep there to be there on time at 8.30 (impossible if were at our normal home).
In the afternoon around two o c'lock as everyday I tried to put Momichan to bed in the bedroom upstairs for the nap and Momichan as everyday since nearly one month, did not agree to rest.
I went downstairs hoping she would fall asleep shortly, in the bathroom upstairs the bricklayer was finishing to put white PIASTRELLE on the wall, all of a sudden we (my mum and I were in the livingroom) heard the sound of little nude feet running around and the volice of the bricklayer calling me ! I go upstairs and see Momichan smiling running everywere !
HEY WAIT !!! I am sure I put her to bed, in her usual camping bed (bought last summer to go to the mountains) why is she running everywhere ? I take Momichan and put to bed again, she calm a little, grabs her comforter and turns to one side, I go down again.
neither five minutes time have passed, again we hear her tiny feet running upstairs !!!

I do not have any idea how she does but she is able to come outside her camping bed, you see from the foto I took last summer, is quite deep but she comes outside.
The only solution to prevent her from falling badly and aching trying to get out is to buy a new crib wich has the possibility to remove one bed side so that she can easily climb into/out of the bed (the one which Momichan uses home is a Sniglar Ikea bed which unfortunately has no removable bed side) so we went straight to Ikea to buy the Hermellin coloured red :) and also a guard rail; once home I put it togather to show Momichan how to use and she seems to love but we will see next days anyway I noticed she has learnt something new: she can easily sleep in her new bedroom alone without any problem !
I mean, as you probably know we are moving to my mum's house in the upper floor where there are two bedrooms and a bathroom, surrounded in two sides by a balcony, it was where my sister and I lived when we were children, now we are transforming and enlarging including one of the two sides of the balcony so as to enlarge the two bedroom, in this way my big room becomes bigger to contain living room, kitchen and dining table, the smaller bedroom (my sista's) becomes larger so as to contain a 3 meter large wardrobe, our 140x200 cm bed, drawer chest and Momi's crib for a total of 45 square meters in total, bathroom included.
To enlarge and have the new wall we have to wait for the permissions until november so for the moment the smaller room is just big enough for a 2 meter large wardrobe, drawer chest and Momi's crib, we do not have any space to sleep both with her neither on the floor and anyway is not so comfortable to sleep for six months on the floor using just sleeping bag ..... too hard :)
Here is new Momichan Hermelin Bed ^^

new bathroom (follows)

Finally after five months waiting we have the new bathroom, furnished and perfectly working.
Plumber has finished his work but the wall is still to be repaired, there is a hole because of the tube for water taken to our future kitchen but the bricklayer will come only on monday morning. We have already have had possibility to use the new bathroom, everything is working perfectly and new bathtub is wonderful.
Today I went to Ikea to buy new accessories for the shower like the shower curtain, shower curtain rod and the rings to hang it.
In the corner right to the wc where I put the changing table, I want to hang a mobile and if I can also some little mirrors so that eventually Momichan will stay calm when I dress her ^^ In a few days we will hang four cabinets to organize towels, medicines, baby items and some other things, just the time to move and take the cabinets from the old home.
I also bought some flowers to display outside the window, I have a sunflower and a special lavender that has a special smell like lemon. I have also put order inside the sink closet, bought some plastic boxes to organize cleaning products, soaps recharges, towels and so on, the result is a happy coloured cabinet ^^
Momichan seems to love it, I imagine that when we will move all the furniture we need for bedroom, kitchen and is still confused about this new bathroom but she living room she will feel more "home" ^^

yoku irasshaimashita Rikochan !

This morning at 8.30 AM Riko リコ is born !


YOKU IRASSHAIMASHITA

BABY RIKOCHAN !!!

Who is Riko you will say ?
Well, she the sister of Ryuki 琉絆 our nephew and Momoko's cousin, finally another baby girl in the family !
Unfortunately we cannot fly to Japan now to meet her personally but we will organize a travel as soon as possible, guess we will meet again when Momoko and Ryuki will learn to speak and will be big enough to make a travel so long (Milano-Amsterdam-Tokyo-Shizuoka 31 hours), anyway meantime we will receive many photos of both brothers and we will see them grow.
WOW we are now aunt and uncle now :) what an emotion !

New Bathroom ...

Finally after many sacrifices we got permission to renew the bathroom of the upper floor of mum's house, this bathroom is more than 40 years old !
Today there were two men working inside, they took away the shower and put the new bathtub, bought on purpose for Momichan, tomorrow they will go on with the restyling changing wc, taking away bidet, creating connections for the washing mashine and the new kitchen ont the other side of the wall.
At the moment our old bathroom looks like this but in a few days we will put Ikea furniture and will decorate so that it will become very pretty and comfortable for little Momichan (she fears the shower and loves the bathtub), we cannot wait to see ^^
Momichan was staring at the works smiling at the bathtub, powder and pieces of wall were everywhere so I took her away to play ^^

Bento For Momichan

(if you want to read in italian click here)

Momichan is now one year and a half so she is able to eat by herself with spoon or fork, she can also drink from every glass or bottle using a straw and she amuses so much in discovering the new things she can do.
As it is so hot now, days are long and light goes away after nine o clock we are often in the park or in granny's house and to be sure Momichan is eating correctly (granny uses a little too much butter) I prepared this lunch: pennette with ragout (beaf meat with onion, carrots and celery) and a little basket of blackberries she seems to get crazy about in this period.
The bottle is full of fruit tea with addition of vitamin C.
