early presents

V got a set of dollhouse tableware with plum motifs from my mum.
i got 4 Beautiful glasses from Y and V. they are so perfect. delicate but not too thin to use. i somehow wish they would've waited until christmas. reading: new ANP magazine, i like the cover pic so much. but i'm trying to avoid seeing some photos inside there again.

our news is that the car is broken. yesterday we walked to a 2-year birthday party, good exercise, i need it. got a ride back. i regret not taking a proper photo of our pouch number 2. V drew flowers on it, never saw flowers from her before.
V has caught cold, so that's another reason not to go to the kindergarten. today was cleaning day - after our guests left, i wish i could've done some cleaning before they came... tomorrow is baking day! i can't wait. the gingerbread dough is ready. V wants to also make a strawberry cake, she whispered to my ear before going to bed. she was also worried if there will be some playing time too.
i
love
being
at home.
i feel like i've been away on a trip or something.

i finished lay-out checking today while V was in the dollhouse. another one later this week, almost holiday. V has a ride to daycare on Wed and Thu, she has agreed to take the rides. that's quite something. also christmas party at the kindergarten. we have to plan how we get there, me from home and Y from town. i have to concentrate on making V's doll...

i'm excited about my dear K's new life in Kyoto and happy about another friend's new life as a father.

another new week. oh, i'm tempted to wish everyone a good week...
i will: have a wonderful and stress-free week!
