Hello diary!
Yesterday was our family day and finally for a long time we went out with my husband and my son to the aquarium. We all was a bit busy last days. My Chinese courses are started and also I am going to the driving school and working from home. My husband busy and traveling all the time. So we all was happy to spend all day with each other. Aquarium was pretty good and Lucas was really exited. He was screaming and laughing.

Dear diary!
Yesterday was our family day and it was the first time for us to go out for a long time / finally we went out to the aquarium as a family for the first time in a long time / we went out together to the aquarium and we hadn’t been out together for a long time. We all had been a bit busy until then (that time) / before then. My Chinese courses have started and also I went to the driving school and I have been working from home (and 3 years ago I had been working in an office for years). My husband has been busy and (has been) traveling all the time, so we all were happy to spend all day with each other. The aquarium was pretty good and Lucas was really excited. He was squealing and laughing. The most wonderful thing to be a parent for me that you can open a whole world to your baby and watching his reaction.
