Lidingöloppet (Knatteloppet) 1.7km

Time 4 Milton and Denvers first race ever :) They are running Lidingöloppet (Knatteloppet 1.7 km) for the first time. Robin participates also but in the P10 race. It's the same distance but without parents and with official time.

Since Elina and I were at the hospital with Marwin we had a backup crew that took charge today. It was Aunt Anna with BF, Han and Mysan with the aid of Dimitri and Robin. They also had Grandfather Börje, Houshang and Step-grandmom Marianne in the crowd.

Information we got later on was that Milton and Denver ran the whole way. They didn't stop once. They also didn't complain. Denver fell three times but just stod up and kept on running. Denver also finished ahead of his big brother, Milton.

I couldn't be any prouder. Robin also did a great job, running his first race. He crossed the finish line with 08.37 which gave him the 237th place.

I wish I could have been there.

Knatteloppet are made for 6-10 year olds (Milton's 4/Denver's 3)
P10 is for 10 year olds only.

Don't ask me why aunt Anna shoots.. side ways.. :)

Welcome Brother

My little brother is born :)

Belly Check Up

Getting close to the due date so we went to check up baby-belly. We also haven't taken any photos of the brothers with the belly so, before it's to late, we took a few photos. Milton and Denver are really looking forward to be big brothers :)

Baby IKEA - Part II

What you don't buy the first time, you spend gas money to buy the second time.

Baby IKEA

Went to Sweden's furniture pride today. Needed some things for the baby. One thing we don't have is a baby dressing-table. Now that we have a house we need a proper table for the baby. We also needed a pot and different small things. Denver got his own "kangaroo" towel-dress. Milton has a kangaroo towel-dress that Denver want's to borrow all the time, so now he got his own.. But I think it's a.. Frog-Troll??.. Anyways, Denver loves it :)

We also bought a bedroom TV for the many hours in bed with the baby. Looked great and seemed like a great buy. A Grundig with a nice picture. To bad it was DAO. I hate that! I'll return it and switch in a few days.

Cleaning Up

How do boys clean up the floor ?

Table Tennis Tournament

Aunt Anna came by for a visit. She brought some cute t-shirts for the boys and spent the night. Since we bought a table tennis for Robin and Dimitri we had Table Tennis Tournaments. I'm not very good. It's been like 25 years since I last played table tennis, but I did win a few :)

Milton and Denver also got to play but mostly catching serves and serve themselves. They actually hit the ball and also got it over the net several times. They did better than I thought they would :).. especially Denver who barely reached up to the table. The best player today, Dimitri, but that will change after practice ;-)

Cozy Friday Belly

At home, Fredagsmys (cozy friday), with chips and dip. The whole family watching movies. We are all waiting for our number 3. Will it be Nicole or "Marwin" (It won't be Marwin but something boyish) ? As time passes I kind of get the feeling it will be Nicole. Why ? We can't agree on a boy name so.. Nicole it is :)

Denver Going Camera Nuts

Once agin Denver's been playing with dad's cellphone camera. He seems to love them pictures :)

Fishing Try-Out

After a day of work we tried to relax with some fishing and out door activities. Dimitri and Robin tried to fish in our nearby lake. We quickly realized our lake was to shallow and had to much sea plants. On positive sida, we had great weather and had a gaaang of geese following us around :)

& Ping Pong Has Been Introduced

Dimitri and Robin played Ping-Pong today and of course that made Denver and Milton intrested also. Surpricingly Denver had pretty good ball-control. Milton hit the ball to but not as much and he also fooled around a lot. Denver was really focused :)

@ Dads Work

Today I took Milton to work with me. He has been asking about it for a loooong time. I thought it was time. Today I brought Milton, next time Denver. He was so happy and he was very helpful. He helped me with the computers and caary things I bought. I've made sure to only do hands-on things today so that I could be with Milton all day. He also helped with tools in our studio and saved some energy to do some homework :) On our way back home he said he was tired. After a short discusion on the bus he practically fell a sleep while talking :)
