Sicher ist sicher...


Letzte Woche haben wir im Haus die Schloesser austauschen lassen und eine Alarmanlage installieren lassen. Ich sag euch, dass war ganz schoen teuer, aber vermutlich sinnvoll fuer den "peace of mind", wie man hier sagt.
Generell fuehle ich mich in unserer Nachbarschaft und in den USA an sich, genauso sicher, wie ich mich in Deutschland gefuehlt habe. Aber Phoenix ist nunmal nicht Asperden mit seinen 2000 Einwohnern und hat eine ziemlich hohe Kriminalitaetsrate. 
Erst vor einigen Wochen bin ich mitten in der Nacht wach geworden, weil ein Polizei Hubschrauber ziemlich niedrig ueber unserem Haus herum gekreist ist, mit Suchscheinwerfern und das Schauspiel ging bestimmt eine Stunde so weiter. Was die gesucht haben, weiss ich nicht, und vielleicht ist das auch ganz gut so!:)
Und nun haben wir halt eine Alarmanlage, die hoffentlich nie zum Einsatz kommt. Einen Fehlalarm hatten wir jedoch bereits am zweiten Tag, da wir auf die Hunde meiner Managerin aufgepasst haben, und die waehrend unserer Abwesenheit den Alarm ausgeloest haben! Sobald die Alarmanlage los geht, werden wir von der Alarmfirma angerufen und nach einem Passwort gefragt, was denen dann bestaetigt, dass hier alles okay ist, bevor die die Polizei rausschicken wuerden. Also... Einbrecher nehmt euch in Acht!:)

July iPhone dump

The rest of our July in pictures! Movie date with the boys! I took Finn and his best friend to the Aquarium one day, while Fox was at the allergist with Katie. They both had a blast. Trying to touch the sting rays... Sweet brotherly moment at a play place. One of my patients made this for me, and it made my day. It's now hanging from the mirror in my car, as a reminder how fragile life is. This kid kills me with his watermelons. He always wants to buy them, so he can help me cut them, but then won't eat them. When I pointed this out to him, he simply replied that I could take the watermelon to my co-workers again because they love it when I do.  Fox told me he is allergic to Goodwill and puts on this big act whenever I make them go. His throat starts to be itchy and he can't breathe. We might have to get him tested again...hahaha. We visited a lot of play places this summer to stay out of the heat. This was at a library and the kids played with this lite-brite forever. Finn...

April phone dump

Some more pictures of our April. He's my bed hog, but I love sharing the bed with him and the way he comes find me in his sleep to snuggle up to me. Work Crew! Easter Preparations...it took me a solid hour to fill all the eggs. Finn chipped his permanent front tooth, and had to get it fixed. He was so brave. I tried to hold his hand to let him know I was there, and he kept giving me a thumbs up. Reading in bed with them is my favorite. We went to play mini golf, and it was an absolutely shit show. Just look at Finn in the background, he was on fire on this day. That's his "cool face". Not pictured are all the times he melted down because he wasn't "good enough". I really need to stop playing this game with him, because it happens every single time...haha.  Book Club! I wasn't a fan of the book, but it was great getting out and talking about books with other readers. He got into kinetic sand for a few weeks, and I felt like my floors were covered in s...
