Snowracing time

The other day, after the first proper snow had fallen, me and Matt, surprise surprise, found a christmas gift that Santa had left behind for George. A snowracer! Yay! We made our way to Fregattbacken with hot chocolate in tow, and had a lovely time.

Matt went with George three times. He fell of twice. Not when I was filming luckily!

Just an ordinary day...

...in the Leach Squire household...

Sunday roasts

Matt's decided we should try to do Sunday dinners, on Sundays. A very good idea, I mean, look at these yorkshires! We've managed a couple in a row now, but today we'll have to give it a miss, since Matt's on a secret mission in the archipelago with ROA, creating some spectacular art...

Mates

George and James in action. Should I be worried about the weapons? Probably, but boys will be boys and George still calls it a 'banger' (bangare)...

Billy in a box

Natural History Museum

A couple of weekends ago, Petra, myself and the small boys, went to Naturhistoriska muséet. It was great! Dino sceletons, the humann evolution, birds in the most amazing colours, a two-headed calf! And, George's favourite part was the robot animals exhibition, where one could control parts of the robot's bodies, or 'shoot' little bugs, or measure your strength. A super day!

New year, new tricks!

He's got four teeth, he crawls properly and likes to pull himself up into standing position. He also makes it up at least three (that's where we stop him) steps on the stairs and can sit up from crawling/belly position.

This morning I found him, somewhat surprised, on his back in the cot. He's getting more and more daring now, venturing away from my legs on little excursions. Very nice.

James Bomb

George had his friend James around to play the other day. James Bomb, as George calls him...

Poo update

Today we had a bit of a sticky situation... Billy Finn had a very gassy little tummy... He was on George's lap... I asked G to let him go, and spot poo all up Billy's back as he crawls away... All up his back, and all at the front of G's jeans... Uäääh! It was a very headless-chicken-moment I must admit. Me and Matt running around frantically with a child each at arm's length. All good after a quick wash down. Oh, and then George steps in poo downstairs... Apparently we'd missed a spot. Aaah, parenthood, how lovely it is!

Nice pics!

These are some nice pics from the year that I don't think I've published on the blog before.

Merry Christmas!

This is the Christmas card we sent out to the family! Cuties.

December update

Right, December was a busy month. A very busy month. Won't bore you with the details, but here's some snaps to see what we've been up to. Starting with Matt taking George to London Town for the weekend. They had a great time, G had his hair cut, and got not one but two (!) Pure Evil prints from the man himself, in exchange for a super cool toilet roll santa... Not bad trade that!






The day after the return from London, it was time for Lucia celebrations at dagis. George was geared up in a Santa costume, matey James as a gingerbread man.
