Full Circle

I was planning on doing one of those summary post where my bloggy year is laid out. But I realised I just don't have the time inbetween breast feeding and rocking and trying to have a shower and all.

But looking back I've realised that although three have become four we have also come full circle. The weather has ben cold and snowy and soo freezing that the baby and I have been stuck in the house, and not out walking and taking pictures as I had planned. Minus 10 degrees celsius on average is not good for little lungs. So the picture is from January, but it might as well have been from today.

Christmas has been beautiful. My sister and her family are visiting from Vancouver, and I just can't get enough of them. Little Man has been playing and playing with his cousins and it is so great to litterally see the familiarity between them.

Blogging, although it has been missed, has been far from my mind. My camera is full of family photos, and my Mac has practically gained dust.

And as Little Brother is slowly waking up beside me, I'm going to go back to family. To great winter light. To slow cooked and lazy meals. To a few glasses of sauvignon blanc. To holiday bliss.

I might just say Happy New Year now. I might not get the chance later.

Moose Breakfast

Why is it that baby always wakes up when Mamma makes herself breakfast?

Moose 'kakemann' (cakeman), vanilla yoghurt and blueberries scoffed between boobs. Firstmentioned made with the bigger boy yesterday.

Update

Here is one happy boy.

Mango is found. The cheeky monkey hid in the laundry basket and is now back from his holiday. Little Man tested the labels for cuddleness and agreed that this was the right Mango.

Backup-Mango2 is back in the closet.

Lost!

Mango the Monkey went missing Monday morning, and is nowhere to be found. Untill now Little Man has bought the concept that Mango is on holiday, and is giving all his other stuffed animals a chance.

Mango 2 (bought as a backup when we realised how important he is) has already been tried, tested and discarded.

There is no fooling the fingers of a cuddly three-year-old.

Arrived

Little Brother arrived Monday 29th of November. He was 3550 grams and 50 centimetres long. Everyone is well.
