Every year for children's day cities and villages do magical forest. It's sometimes a walk through a forest, sometimes it's a challenge course, sometimes it's a combination. Of course, you have magical creatures that meet you along the way. Janka and Risko went with us. Julia almost fell asleep on the drive there - we went to Kraliky which is a ski resort in the winter. But she didn't sleep, and I was glad because I needed her to be tired so she goes to bed at a normal time. Now I know that this really doesn't work. We get to the starting point and there are two clowns - apparently Julia is not fond of clowns and I have to carry her through the entrance. After that she was fine. We met characters from Mrazik, ... read more

Since Julia was sick, the next day we spent just hanging around the house. Grandpa took her outside for a couple of hours and she made some friends, but coulent remember their names. She loved "piesok" - the sand - and kept talking about it all day. Her naps don't go like I would like and she didn't take one. I went to Hawaii pub with my brother and his friends. And I am starting to get sick :/ June 1st is the "MDD" which is the international day of children. I don't know where else they celebrate it, but I think maybe they should rename it "European day of children." we waited for Julia to take a nap and then went to get some ice cream by the museum. There were rides there and she ... read more

Julia woke up at 5:30. I tried to tell her it's not time to get up yet, mama only slept 4 hours, but her response was pretty nasty throw up. I thought this is just from her congestion - she didn't eat much but all the snot kept draining into her tummy. Then she threw up again, and again...and again....6 times total and only bile was coming out. She was also running fever and couldn't even hold water down. This only lasted 2 hours, we gave her anti nausea meds and soon introduced fluids and she was fine. She slept on and off the whole day. I went to Ohnivko with Monika and Janka and had three small beers and came home. I also found out that Monika and Miso are engaged. Thanks Monika my friend ... read more

After saying goodbye to our Slovak friends with a bang and a bit of drama, the day has finally arrived. I was pretty much packed then, but, as always, Arthur was doubting me a little. When Julia woke up he went to change her clothes, and I heard a sneeze. I didn't think much of it, probably allergies, right? Wrong. Yellow snot came out of her nostrils like a big yellow monster each mother fears, especially on a day of travel, and especially on a day when air travel is involved. I was very worried how she was going to handle the pressure changes. Before we left I decided we should weigh the suitcases because the big one felt really heavy. My suspicion was confirmed, it was 12 pounds over the limit. Great. Julia's suitcase is ... read more
