Retroactive Christmas Blogging :)

I am not sure if this is a great no-no in the blog world, but I am posting some Christmas photos below and pretending that I posted them earlier... I want the photos to be in somewhat chronological order. At least I am honest that I am a few months behind...:)

Christmas Eve. Julafton. Anna was very friendly with Santa, Frida not so much...
Lovely children in our lovely house just before opening their lovely gifts....
Yay mamma! I love this Christmas wrapping thing! It is your best idea ever!
Disaster area after lovely children has opened their lovely gifts and left the living room to parents...:)
A very nice Christmas Day with our good friends Lynne, Paul, Anja and Isabel. Apart from the great company, great food and drink it was also very nice to leave the disaster area behind!

Lussebullar och lucia

Skating in Chicago

The girls; Carolina, mormor, Anna, Frida and I, spent Saturday night and Sunday in Chicago before Carolina and mormor was to return back home. In spite of snow-mixed rain we had a nice stay. The highlight was probably the skating rink in Grant park. And the Chicago style Pizza!

Thanksgiving Turkey

Jisses-var tog de tva manaderna vagen? Vi borjar med det senaste: Thanksgiving! Vi hade Thanksgiving middag tillsammans med Lynne, Paul, Anja & Isabel och Mamma var ansvarig for lagandet av kalkonen och Paul skotte "carvingen".
For Thanksgiving Lynne, Paul, Anja & Isabel as well as Carolina and Barbro came over and we had a really nice evening. The girls played and the rest of us ate. :)

Baby cousin!!!

I got a call this morning from Stockholm-my sister (and Anders) had a baby boy! Everyone is doing well, just a little tired. He is big, 4200g, which translates to roughly 9lbs 4oz. He doesn't have a name yet, but I can now titulate myself moster Kaisa! (aunt Kaisa, but moster specifies that it is the mother's sister, I am fortunate to already be an aunt to Wilhelm, Liv and Marta)

I am anxiously waiting for pictures!
