Week 16 - A walk in by the river

Sofia's baby bump is developing nicely. Had a nice long walk in very mild weather over the weekend. Lola had a good play in Valarna and enjoyed running through all the leaves that have fallen from the trees.

First pics of baby number 2

On August 5th Sofia, Lola and I found out that we were expecting another baby. Booyah! We obviously kept it quiet at first telling a few family members and close friends. But now we have told the world! Today we went for the 2nd scan and could clearly see a heart beating, head, hands, feet, eyes, ears and what looked like the poor thing having the hiccups. Lola is very excited at having a brother or sister to play with. She says she would prefer a sister :). Sofia is very tired at the moment and falling asleep at 9.00 most evenings. It's all good fun though. We'll keep you posted.

Week 15 - Bump well on the way

Had a lovely Saturday with our friends Sarah, Steve and Julia in Kungsbacka. Sarah is 8 months pregnant at the moment but still managed to find time to provide us all with a lovely fika, dinner and fantastic cake for desert. Lola and Julia played really well together and it was a really good day out despite the rainy weather. Steve and I were drinking both for two so it was good to catch up with a fellow Englishman over a glass of wine or three.

The picture below was taken in the morning before we set off. Bump coming along nicely. Sofia still very tired in the evenings but it's all good.

Growing fast

As of September 15th 2012 Lola stands at a humongous 95cm! Getting bigger, lovelier....and cheekier!

Blue Steel

The summer has been pretty poor all over Northern Europe this year but when the sun has been shining we have been hitting the beach...and hitting it hard! Here is a picture of Lola and I sporting our Blue Steel look.

The Coshall invasion....I mean visit

For one fun packed week in late August the lovely Coshall family paid us a visit. Much fun and frolicks were had and Lola loved playing with Harry and Elsie. We saw plenty of Falkenberg and even had 3 days in Dalsoförs. It was very sad to see them go and Lola still speaks of her play dates with Harry and Elsie at Valarna. Hopefully see them again soon. Check out the clip of Harry showing Lola how to use the pole. Happy days!

Booyah! Number 2 on the way.

Today Sofia, Lola and I found out that Sofia is pregnant! Early days at the moment but we are all very excited! No more drinking for Sofia now so I am drinking for two.
