Catching up - May 2010

May 1: Scandinavian Brunch. Mom, Lindsey, Josephine and I

Ulle, Mom and I

May 3: Mom's last day at Chicago Booth. We went to clean out her office. This place was great - there were keys everywhere! Hopefully I didn't move them around too much...I think mom put them all back where they belong before we left :)

Had to go with mom to choir practise a couple of times and that included a couple of train rides...I was a little tired but it was still fun for me to ride the train!

May 5-9: Denver trip with mom. We stayed a couple of days with mom's college friend, Kelly, and her family.
Here I am with Nathan.

Nathan had a fun car. I played with that a lot!

Out for lunch with Yvette and mom. Mom said I was in a phase where I often wanted to have my hair in a ponytail.

Playing with Vatika, Guy and Yvette's dog.

Went to the park with some of my Chicago friends...Alex, Viggo, Karl and Leo and the moms of course :) Here are Alex, Viggo and I waiting for our moms to get lunch.

Viggo and I talking with Jessica. His banana looks really good.

Mom, Jessica, Leo and I

Susanne and Alex...they moved to Abu Dhabi about the same time we moved to Sweden.

Karl and his mom Anna

Hanging out in Monika's condo. She was so nice to let us stay with her for a month! I loved watching the train from her window.

Monika had some cool head bands :)

Grandman Carol and grandpa Terry came to say good bye. Getting a nice hug from Carol!

Michaela, Nick and PJ came to say good bye too.

And then...May 22 and we've landed in Sweden! First time in a month that I see dad - he said I had grown a lot :)

Dad and I hanging out on the balcony of our new apartment.

Pasta is my new favorite food! Mom said I loved jar food in the States and didn't like the regular food but when I got to Sweden I didn't want jar food...only pasta and korv or pasta and meat balls :) Well...I guess I'm a big boy now!!

Yummie!

Got my first real big boo-boo. Fell outside our apartment and cut my forehead bad on a rock :( We hadn't unpacked the first aid kit yet but fortunately the neighbors were home and they had some gauze and alcohol :) Have a scar still but hopefully it will go away in a few years.

Mom and I took a walk to discover Västerås. We live right by the river, Svartån, so it was a nice walk.

Got some rubber booths today...got to pick them out myself so I of course picked the ones with cars on them...PoP is a great place :)

Fun! I found my music table...been a long time.

I love to watch trains so mom and I go by the train stations now and then :)

I tried my first piggelin...strange but really good!

Farmor came to visit to watch me when mom and dad were unpacking. We had fun. Here I'm walking her to the bus station. Took her through the park so I could show her the ducks.

Farmor gave us some trisslotter. Fun - We won a little on one of them!

May 30 - Mother's day. Mom and I hanging out in the couch.
