Day 1209

It snowed! Hard to tell from this picture, but Alexander was delighted to be taken to daycare on Isaac's old sled.

Day 1208

I've been very busy with class assignments and have come home so late a couple of times that Alexander is already asleep!

Day 1207

Busy cooking.

Day 1206

Day 1205

First day back to daycare. Alexander had fun, they went and saw a children's theater performance. He was very tired when I picked him up. Lasse and I were also very tired. The way things are going I won't be surprised if there are a lot of Alexander sleeping pictures this month!

Day 1204

Playing with play-doh was nice, but stacking the containers with Emma was even more fun.

Day 1203

Typical scene on public transportation, not just our family, but everyone is very plugged in to their telephones! We were on the train riding home from friends. It was Saturday night and there were drunk people screaming for half of the ride, but Alexander slept through it all.

Day 1202

Stayed home from daycare today, and alternated between sad and happy.

Day 1201

I'm getting tired of this theme! Alexander is still sick. I'm still not completely recovered myself, so it doesn't surprise me that he is still having fever and headache. He has a cough now too.

Day 1200

Alexander is still sick, and took a nap in the morning. Daddy was home with him in the morning, and Farmor in the afternoon.

Day 1199

Policeman Alexander getting ready to build a duplo garage. Home from daycare.

Day 1198

Day 1197

Felt a bit better in the afternoon. Lasse and I managed to get some small projects done at home this weekend. Later, feeling feverish again, Alexander rested on Daddy.

Day 1196

Captures the mood of the day. Fever and headache. Big brother still healthy :-)

Day 1195

When I picked Alexander up from daycare he was very tired, and he was soon running a fever.

Day 1194

The Hello Kitty Police are visiting the fairy house, where oatmeal is being served.

Day 1193

Wednesday November 14th. No picture again! I will be feeling healthier soon and get back on track.

Day 1192

Tuesday November 13th. Still sick. Isaac stayed home from school today, I hope he doesn't get what I have. So far Alexander, Emma, and Lasse are still OK.

Day 1191

We said "goodbye" to Mormor today, her visit went by very fast! Alexander woke up at 5:20 and wanted to go to the airport too. He was very tired when I picked him up from daycare. I had another DayQuil day to get through my classes.

Day 1190

Father's day in Sweden. Tea and chocolate. I'm still sick with a fever; bad timing with the last day of Mormor's visit. Setting up a camera to take a group picture. Lasse is wearing the lovely raccoon tee-shirt that Emma gave him last Father's day. This year she made him his own roll of toilet paper which she wrote appropriate text messages on which maybe shouldn't be shared here.

Day 1189

Still have a fever, did lots of DayQuil, and moved through the day in slow motion. I think some other people took pictures but I'm not sure.

Day 1188

I had a fever yesterday and today and didn't take any pictures.

Day 1187

Doing a puzzle at the kitchen table with Mormor before breakfast.

Day 1186

Alexander putting a banana sticker on his forehead and standing in front of the microwave, which he has figured out how to turn on, even when I "disable" it from working by pressing the "set time" button.

Day 1185

Alexander took a picture of himself with big brother.

Day 1184

Alexander and Mormor did a puzzle together.

Day 1183

Sunday More adventures in the car, walking around the grounds outside of a small castle near Waxholm. When we got out the car Alexander yelled, "the forest"! and took off running.

Day 1182

Saturday A big day: Uppsala, where we saw some big grave mounds (and even climbed them), a small museum/art gallery, and a larger museum + dinner with Farmor and Farfar.

Day 1181

We rented a car and went to City Gross with Mommy, Daddy, and Mormor. Alexander was very excited. He loves being in the car, and he was very busy in the grocery store climbing in and out of the car-basket about 100 times. When we came home we unloaded all the groceries and Alexander played in an empty bag.

Day 1180

Nurse Alexander tending to his teddy bear. Later, Alexander helped us make cookies. Emma came and asked him to feed her a piece of dough.
