„Fatal error“

Hello all,

today I was victim of a complete wrong information or misunderstanding. Katie called me in the office and told me that we’ve got a parcel from our dear friends Tim and Jody. I quickly wrote an email to both and thanked them very much. When I came home I found out that it was not a parcel from them but from Tom and Judee. Oh my…………… Anyway, sorry Tim and Jody but we thank you for something different, probably for beeing our friends, okay?



Judee and Tom. What can I say. We never met face to face and we know each other only over the blog. So how do we deserve your generous gift? Anyway, we would like to thank you very, very much and we’ve been very touched. I will tell little Tim later, when he’s older, that he had got a gift also from nice people over the big pond. The clothes are so cute and an original Levis Jeans is a thing that is very, very expensive in Germany, even for children. So again our special thanks. I will take some pictures when Tim will wear your shirt and the Jeans. I think he will fit in right now. No wonder, when I think of what he’s eating over the day. In Germany we say he’s eating the hair from our heads.




Attached some more pictures, we hope you’ll like. Also one of my new car, not really new, 15 months old. It is a VW Touran, sort of a mini van. Anyway there is enough space inside for all that stuff you’ll have to take with you when you’re traveling with a small child.




The picture of Katie, Tim and myself was taken on July 5th. Can you believe that Katie has got a baby 3 weeks before that?


Time to go to bed now – you must take the chance when little Tim is sleeping as well. Today he came at 3:30, so I’m now nearly 20 hours at my feet.










Good night

A Little Tim Update


Just thought everybody would like an update of Little Tim & Family. Katie and Holger are experiencing the joys and challenges of being first time parents. They love this little baby & wonders of parenthood, but are allways tired! I can see all of your heads nodding & all of your faces grinning. Poor little Tim (and Katie and Holger) suffers from colic. I all respects, Tim Little Tim is a perfectly normal baby. I get new pictures from Holger almost weekly and I apologize for not sharing more of them. I will do a better job of it in the future.

Sleeping Arangements






Josh and Diana arrive tomorrow for a weeks visit. They are even driving up themselves. I think it was probably forsight that we got him a Garmin for graduation. If he has any Uncle Scott in him, he could end up in Arkansas without it.

As you can imagine, a week with the two of them in the same house has brought on many discussions about sleeping arrangments espicially since Jodi insists I am not sleeping with her for a week straight!

With that in mind, I have developed a few scenarios.

1. I lock Josh in the shed and let Diana have my room. She is a girl and needs her privacy & I know where Josh is at all times. There is a racoon living under the shed & Josh can keep it company.

2. Josh goes on the couch, Dianna gets my room and I sleep outside her room on the floor with a shotgun. I figure this is the Uncle Scott approach. Simple, easy and the prospect of extreme violence.

3. I just get a hotel room for myself & pretend the situation doesn't even exist. (holds hands over ears and repeatedly sings... la la la la to himself)

Please vote for your suggestion as to the best approach. Or, offer one of your own.
