This is gonna be a tough week for us… we begin prepping the new apartment tomorrow morning, and that’s going to be a lot of work. Then, once we’re done, the payoff is: we get to move. And we haven’t packed much of anything yet. So we’re looking at anywhere from 5 to 10 days of hell. On top of which there’s still work, school, the rewrite of my novel, and preparation for the holidays. So the updates may be a little sparse for the next 5-10 days, but I promise I’ll make up for it over the holidays when things have slowed down a little. (Assuming we have internet access when we move in! Oh God, what if we don’t?)
First, Trine and I took turns showering with Molli this morning. She was so thrilled with being naked in Trine’s arms as the shower warmed up the bathroom she began smiling and giggling. We took a lot of pictures of the Happy Fit, and though some are “prettier,” I thought this was the best of Molli’s smiles. (Yeah, I know, we really need to cut those nails… the scratches look awful on film!)
Next comes a picture from another of our Adventures in Mealtime. This was yesterday. There’s some nice video of her eating, but it’s 4 megs and I didn’t think it was worth the bandwidth to watch us go “aah” and shove a spoon in her mouth. Maybe you disagree. If so, let me know and I’ll email it.
And now we’re up to Vibeke’s birthday dinner just this evening. Molli was very well behaved most of the night, and seemed to make Mormor very happy:
Molli was on such good behavior that she actually got on the phone with Moster Mette:
But she wasn’t even content to leave it at that! In the end, she wound up jumping onto the table and doing a Birthday jig for Mormor. (I thought she was crossing the line at that point, and will probably not let her drink aqvavit at any future birthday parties… not until she’s at least 3 or 4, anyway.)
Anyway, that’s all for now. If anyone has the patience or capacity for an emailed version of the “first roll” video, I can email that, too. It’s 12MB, though, so be sure your mail server can handle it!
Have a great week and I apologize one more time in advance for the probable lack of updates…
What a wonderful selection of pictures. It’s always a great way to start a week – with updated pictures of Molli. I particularly liked the one of her dancing on the table – doesn’t the girl have any manners????
I hope the packing and workload isn’t too unbearable for you; wish I were available to help you but obviously there’s not much we can do from here.
Good luck on all of it and we won’t expect to see much on the blog in the next week or so.
All my love and kisses
What lovely photos. I can only wish we were there to share in them. I have a few table top steps I would love to show Molli.
