Video Wednesday: Oliver is obsessed with my Flip camcorder
I’m all better, but Oliver is sick (I think he’s teething. Something they don’t tell you before you become a parent: teething babies spew fluids out of both ends. And they cry all night. Yeah, fun.) Anyways, we bought a wireless router and as soon as Oliver is well, and the router is set up, I should be able to blog a little more frequently. The office is not all that baby friendly, so using the laptop in the living room should give me a little more time online. Well, except that Oliver is also obsessed with the laptop too. And the camera.
But on to the video. This is from a few days ago and shows why I have trouble taking videos of Oliver now. As soon as the camcorder comes out, he makes a beeline straight for it.
Oh, and for local folks, the 37th Annual Hohenfels German-American festival will be taking place from April 30 to May 4. You can be sure I’m gonna be there chowing down on good ole American grub!

Fun in Regensburg
I’m back and healthy again (I had one butt-kicking cold, Oliver had a runny nose for two days - thank goodness for breastfeeding!). Spring has finally come, plus we had our monthly Regensburg meetup today - brunch did not prove all that popular in the end, so we’ll probably stick to dinners in the future, although I think that everyone who showed up enjoyed themselves and Rive Droite is highly recommendable for brunch (good eats for little money). So I will now inundate you with photos of our recent exploits.

And finally, some goodies from the best stocked American section in a local grocery store (at least that I’ve discovered so far):

Sorry
Been sick with a bad cold all week. Still sorta sick in fact, so probably no posts till next week. Hope you all are feeling better than I am!
Wacky Weather
The view out my kitchen window this morning
What is up with the weather this spring? Snow on April 17th is just wrong!
Video Wednesday: Tour of Luexem
Here’s a tour of Rainer’s home village of Lüxem, which has been incorporated into the city of Wittlich. It’s located in the Sudeifel (or southern Eifel), in the state of Rhineland-Pfalz.
I want to hear from you!
I would really love to hear your answers to one of the questions I was asked (this is also a cheap way to get out of posting something myself, but seriously, I want to know).
So, I ask you, from your perspective, what is the best part about living in <insert country of choice>?
Live in Germany? You can write about Germany. Or not. Never lived in Germany? You can answer it about the country you do live in. Or about the country you wish you lived in. Or a country that you once lived in. I’m flexible. And if you’ve never commented before, here’s your opportunity. You can be philosophical, make a wise crack, whatever. I just want to hear from you guys! Don’t want to answer this question? Then make one up and answer it!
My Babies
I’m hoping to find some time soon to answer the emails that are piling up and maybe write something halfway interesting for the blog. I was hoping to do this last week however, so maybe you shouldn’t hold your breath. Note to all the pregnant ladies out there, enjoy having spare time now.
