X-mas.

Along with all the x-mas amusement baby got really ill with fever. It was hard to see him outside his normal energetic self having little appetite and interrupted sleep in the night. We all felt so bad for our little cub. He was really ill the night before Christmas Eve, Christmas Eve and Christmas Day but luckily he got better Second Day of Christmas when he started antibiotics. A few days after we went outside to enjoy his new sledge. I am just so relieved baby is back to normal again. 

My mum and nan entertain little cub so that he takes less notice of how ill he feels.

Christmas Eve at my mum's.

Baby got to open the first present which was a huge hit :-)

We opened presents on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day to keep both the Norwegian -and the British tradition in tact. 

Off to Charlottenlund to try out baby's new sledge.

Marry Christmas!

Thanks to baby I captured my perfect Christmas card photos during one of our strolls in the December day light. Sadly I never organised them into postcards and sent them to our friends and family the way I so perfectly planned.

 In that case I just turn to my blog and post the photos here. My number one plan B as I keep my blog as my personal diary. Hopefully one day baby can go through all the blog posts and see some of the things we did together during his childhood. 

It is not long left to 24th December and I am so excited to celebrate baby's first Christmas with the people I love the most.    

We wish you all a sweet Christmas and a joyful New Year!

The brightest star of them all

Happy 10 months old my little youngster.  You are the best December joy I have ever had.  The ski trip with you and Dad to see the lovely December lights. It makes the dark times up here in the north so much brighter. Our little drive in the cold dark evening out to Ersfjorden for hot beverages at the Café. The early December mornings helping you to open the Xmas calendar from 'Mor'.  Visiting great grand mothers warm Christmasy house and taking you to the gymnastics xmas show. Hello Xmas spirit you are finally back :-)

Gymnastic Christmas Due

Yesterday was the last day for my two youngest groups in gymnasticks kids 1-2 year olds and 3-4 year olds. It is going to be nice to have some lazy Thursdays during Christmas,  however Seth is going to miss the other kids a lot.  He will definitely have his batteries fully charged for next year's take off.  Tomorrow is the dress rehearsal for my 8 year olds before the Christmas show on sunday. Break a leg.

I tried to share my Christmas costume with baby, only he just laughed and kept pulling the hat over his face or chucked it off. Luckily I was quick enough to snap one photo of gorgeous baby Santa.
