Omma and Aunt are here

Omma and Gumma (Aunt) are finally here. We've been counting down ever since we found out, they were coming over.
Friday evening, mamma and I headed down to the airport. We tried to find their airplane, but there were too many, and they all had the same col

Next morning, I woke up to candy heaven...yummi.
Annika, like most girls, only wanted to try on her new clothes.
Sunday morning walk to the store.
Annika has been inside for the most part lately due to an ear infection. But, she finally go to come outside and enjoy the good weather.
We now have a new patio cover..I'll post pictures of it later. But babba worked on connecting and running a drain from our back yard all the way to the front. Mamma and I helped out a little bit. I even let mamma use my shovel.
I am still taking swimming lessons and get better and better at swimming.

Weekend at full speed

This weekend was super fun. We had a lot to do and I enjoyed every bit of it. Not in chronological order, but: Babba and I played golf. I won with 21 points against his 80-something. This was because he hit the ball into the water and I learned my lesson: I flat out refused to play on those courses that had water nearby.
I have started on my swim lessons. We went in for evaluation/introduction on Sunday and today, I had my first lesson. I was cautious at first, but did better towards the end. John goes to swimming as well. John is my friend.

Cheese!!!!
One evening, we all went out for barbecue and I met Zoe from daycare at the BBQ place. We had a lot of fun out in the Amalie and Susanne stopped by for a visit...
And we had ice cream..... frozen Fresca, actually
I offered Annika some of my juice, but she didn't care for it.
She preferred sitting on the swing with Moss.
Babba pretended to be a hamster in his little (big) wheel.
John and I went to the zoo and rode the train after wards.

Hanging out at home

We've enjoyed some time at home these past days and weeks. Well, enjoying may not be the best description. First, Benjamin was at home, sick for a whole week and then Moss decided, she wanted to get sick as well. Finally, we have a house free of sickness.
We have received a couple of packages from the Faroes these past couple of weeks: Clothes and candy from abba and beautifully knitted clothes from an aunt.

Annika grows so fast and shows no sign of slowing down anytime soon. She does so well sitting up now and has even tried baby apple sauce. Most of it ends up on clothes, face and hands, but she tries to eat it.

Benjamin and Moss are best friends and Moss lets him to get away with a lot of things..... Even pulling out her hair

At the end of the day... not a lot going on, just enjoying some time here at home.
