Anna, Mickey and Leah have a new home

I helped Anna, Mickey and Leah move into their new flat today. They had been subletting the apartment in Hisingen but have now found (with help from dad) a 3 bedroom apartment in Mölndal.

 It was not so much heavy lifting but I got really tired from running up and down the stairs. Was sweating like a pig (do pigs sweat?)! I consider this training which makes it a total of three days of training this week. I will do 2-3 days per week this first month and then escalate.

I think they are going to enjoy their new flat! Congrats!

Gail’s birthday party

We celebrated Gail this saturday. They had prepared a feast with grilled lamb and wine from Pampas, Argentina. My mother was also with us. The weather was fine, slightly chilly but the sun was out. We had some drinks and nibblies for starters, I had Bloody Mary which I like very much (plenty of tabasco in it, of course).

Christer then grilled a nice piece of lamb fillet (or perhaps lamb steak, I don’t know which one) which was absolutely delicious! We had it Argentinian style which means you drench it with garlic butter, and it was so good. It waters my mouth just writing this. With the lamb we had red wine from Pampas to further contribute to the Argentinian style.

After dinner we had a lovely swiss roll with whipped cream and raspberries. A wonderful way to top things off with.

Today is Gail’s birthday. Happy birthday Gail! :cake:

Vincent is not happy

At first Vincent was very quiet and not making much noice but after being in my arms for a couple of seconds, he popped out the passifier and let out a cry, a cry that never really ended until Anneli took him home in the car. I guess my arms are not as good as his mother’s 😉

Transporting Ceasar to Anna’s

We helped my mother transport Ceasar (her cat) to Anna’s yesterday. He is a real coward, very afraid of the open. But we managed to get him there safe and sound. Anna is going to have him at her house for a while. I wonder what Leah will think?

Dominique (Chiquita’s sister) was also with us, as you can see in the pictures below. This was really the first time I got to see the grumpy side of Leah, she is cute even when grumpy. 🙂

I just realised that we didn’t get the chance to get a picture of Ceasar, he was hiding under the bed the whole time once we got to Anna’s.

Shopping with Leah and visiting Vincent

Today we went grocery shopping with Anna and Leah at Willys in Gamlestaden. I carried Leah around in a baby harness, it felt very nice. After dropping off our grocerys at home we went to Anneli and Christian and Vincent. He was asleep most of the time and just woke up when we were about to leave. He has jaundice at the moment and therefore his skin has a somewhat yellow tone. This is pretty normal for new born babies to have, before the liver kicks in properly. He is so cute! 🙂
