Last week, a new yoga studio opened here in Stamford. I had found it online and saw that they had a ‘new student’ deal of unlimited classes for a month. My husband and I walked over there on Sunday and I bought my package. I loved the place right when we walked in through the doors.
Yesterday morning I took my first class. I chose the basic class for two reasons. 1) I like to go back to basics in dance and yoga sometimes because you get to really think and focus on what your body is doing and 2) I wanted to take the earliest class possible and it happened to be a basic one. The studio is beautiful and the class was great. It was the founder, Bernadette, who taught the class. She seems like a wonderful person. We met her the day before and her energy and happy spirit is absolutely fantastic. I love to find places like this, where you feel welcome and part of a community. I’m excited to take more classes there. 

Thor is 3 years old today

Thor-3-birthday_01 Thor-3-birthday_02Happy Birthday to my sweet little fluffbutt!♥

Three years old, I can’t believe it! It doesn’t feel that long ago since we got him when he was ten weeks old. Thor is a big boy now. He still gives a billion kisses every single day. He loves to meet new people and loves the attention (he knows he’s cute). He’s trying to be a macho alpha dog even when all the other dogs are bigger than him. He weighed 7.2 pounds on his last vet visit on Saturday. He’s a super anxious and nervous dog when it comes to travel and crowded places but still gets excited and wants to be everywhere and meet everyone (as long as we are by his side). He loves to play fetch with squeaky toys. Licking feet and hands is his absolute favorite thing in the world. He’s sometimes schizophrenic:), happy one second and angry the next and then back to happy. He loves nap time, preferably on top of us. It shows that he loves the outside cause he’s calm and quiet when we sit on the terrace or on a bench somewhere. He’s annoying at times but also the most loving dog you can find.
We love our little boy♥

the end of April

yoga-offie-april2017Been doing yoga in my office space this week. This pic is from this morning.

Omg, I haven’t blogged since Easter. To be honest, not much has happened. The weather kinda sucks and I haven’t felt like doing much. We have been out for dinners a few times, been shopping for more crap and that’s about it.
The apartment is coming together though. It’s taking longer time than I thought. We don’t wanna buy a bunch of stuff just to fill up space, but we still want to make it a home. We finally found a coffee table for our living room and our new nightstands was delivered yesterday. Yay! It’s mostly just clutter and putting up picture frames left now. Things needs to find their place and I want to make it easy for us to be able to use them. My office upstairs and the yoga/meditation/pilates/dance room (I think I need a name for that room…) is almost finished and so is the living room, so that’s awesome.
I see that the sun is finally showing up now, so I’m gonna take Thor for a walk and then put the nightstands together. Have an awesome Friday!

Like I mentioned in the last post, we went hiking in the morning. It was so nice to go for a walk before breakfast. It was good for Thor too to get some energy out right in the beginning of the day. There was a lot of hills up and down which made it fun. There are a lot of different trails to explore and we will definitely go back to that park:)

Happy Easter! We have had a wonderful weekend. Today we’ve had 27°c (80°f) degrees outside! I love it!!

Our Friday was kinda slow. We finished putting our patio furniture together that we had bought the day before. We skyped with my parents and showed them around our new place before we went shopping at the mall. In the in the evening we dressed up a bit and walked to a sushi restaurant. So much food! It was awesome and I wouldn’t mind going back there..but I would order less food next time:)

On Saturday, we decided to drive back to IKEA. Bought pillows, more mirrors, decoration things and picture frames. I also got a bookcase for my office and a new desk chair, which I didn’t need but it looked very nice and feels awesome to sit in. Jim is a little jealous I think:) We were pretty tired for the rest of the day. After putting together the new stuff, we ordered pizza and watched hockey.

Today we woke up at 8am, got ready and left the apartment a half hour later. We drove for about ten minutes and then enjoyed an 1.5 hour hike. Since we knew that today would be a hot day, we wanted to hike early in the morning for Thor’s sake. We chose a shorter trail just because we didn’t know how T would be. This was the first time that T got to walk around in a forest. He did so well, I’m proud of him. It was so quiet there. We walked past a few people, but for the most part we were alone and we only heard birds in the trees and the sound of our own footsteps. We are looking forward to walk there when the trees are green:)
Back home, we made coffee and brought it up on our terrace. It had already got pretty hot by then. So nice! Around noon, we went to the Home Depot to buy some plants, pots and potting mix. I was so excited in the car on the way home, I wanted to plant stuff right away. But it was too windy on the terrace then. Everything was blowing around and the dirt would have ended up everywhere else except in the pots, I have to do it another day. So, we just sat there and enjoyed the sun. We have been fixing things in the apartment for a little while and now we enjoyed a nice chicken dinner. Pretty nice Easter weekend! I hope you had an awesome weekend as well!
