The exciting life of the Löfmans
Anna and Leah flew over from the emerald island to celebrate Christmas. We had your typical Swedish Christmas dinner, if in a somewhat abbriviated version food wise – concentrating only on the really good stuff. Then we also had the exchange of Christmas gifts. And the following arguments on who gets to play with what, and with whom – “tillsammans” was a word commonly used, although not practised that well.
Blargh! I ‘m not really cut out to be the handy man. I’m a proper office rat. I like sitting on my fast arse and program and be mad at computer not doing what they are supposed to do. Nah, I don’t really like that either, but it’s a whole lot better than dealing with wallpaper bubbling when paintng on them. It’s really driving me mad!
I have temporarily given up on fixing the hallway. I will do it, but it needs to cool off a bit first. I’m only doing the living room now and it’s soon ready. Well, the major parts anyway. Wallpaper bubbling and all that. I’ll deal with that later on.
Chiquitas tummy that is! Here are some pictures of the progress so far. And I threw in a picture of Peter-The-Handy-Man as well. 😉
Yes, I have been extremely lazy when it comes to updating our blog. But now finally, the wait is over.
We visited Suzana, Dan och jack in Stockholm a couple of weeks ago. Dominique and her friend Lisette skipped school and tagged along, but they spent the weekend on their own.
Besides spending time with family we also visited Lina and Lena at their new place.

Anneli and Christian dropped Vincent off at around 11 am today and then they left to do some shopping for their new house.
Vincent and I started with some lunch. Vincent had Salmon in Dill sauce which he ate pretty much without protest. Afterwards he had half a banana which really made his meal. He more or less engulfed the banana, but kept some of it in his mouth, which he then chewed on for half an hour. Bananas are for Vincent, apparently.
After lunch Vincent had a proper monster poop which reaked and filled the entire apartment. He continued to squeeze a couple of times more, so I had to wait a couple of minutes before I dared to change him. Didn’t want anything to come half way through. Yuk!
After the in-take and the out-take we got dressed and headed to the park. We have a very nice play ground here in Majorna where there are some play things and a sand box, usually filled with lots of kids. It was the same today as well.
We didn’t bring any toys with us but there were plenty laying around so we just borrowed some. Vincent really seemed to like it. He didn’t understand what to do with any of the toys though, but happily carried them around. He also ate some sand and tried his best to interact with the other children. We spent an hour at the park before heading back.
On our way to the play ground I saw a café selling pancakes with jam and whipped cream. So on our way back home we had short stop there. Vincent didn’t much care for the whipped cream and jam and had his pancake plain. I guess it’s easier for him to hold on to it that way.
When we got home I figured Vincent was going to be tired, I knew I was. But no, he kept walking around making a proper mess of everything here. Talking loudly as he whirled around. I was laying on the bed trying to get him to come and lay next to me, but no such luck.
It took around an hour of him playing around and pushinc and lifting everything that could be moved before he finally fell and started to cry. A sure sign of him being tired. I simply picked him up, put him in bed, and gave him his pacifier. I layed down next to him and he was already asleep. I fell asleep as well.
Anneli and Christian came an hour later and we had some cake and tea. Vincent was whinging a bit but once a banana was presented he was happy again.
