Birthdays with only a month apart.

(år means year)
We won this lovely Birthday cake from our local bakery. My sister and mum had entered the princess and little man in a compatition in the local paper. We were able to pick it up the day the little man had his Birthday party. How lucky is that!
The cake was meant for both children as their Birthdays are only a month apart. The little man got to blow out the candles though. His big sister is way to cool for doing that now she's 10 apparently.
The cake is normal sponge cake with melted brown sugar on top as well as marcipan, icing and lots of sweets. It's a very traditional Danish Birthday cake but Nana and Papa who was over from England loved it too. Nana got the recipe of the internet so she can attempt to bake one back in England. We will look forward to that next time we visit.

Have a lovely Sunday.

Creative??

The little man is very into drawing at the moment. The princess has always been drawing a lot so I guess that might be why, who knows?! Anyway, he's getting good at the more detailed drawings but where he gets his ideas from I do not know.... Or I do, it's his sister but where did she get the idea from??? This is some of their latest creations, first a drawing by the princess called Boxer Man...

Which then inspireret the little man to draw the same....

Here is what the diglots produced over the weekend and demanded to be put up in the kitchen...

The princess' are to the left, the little man's to the right. They're brilliant, eh'???

Roll away, skater boy!!!

Today the sun looked at us from a clear blue sky. It was cold but we wrapped up and went out anyway.... The princess on her roller blades and the little man on his skate board. We took their scooters too and what luck because then the daddy felt he needed to show some of his skills too. Not that the princess, little man and I were impressed but he doesn't need to know that, does he??

The little man saw no need to take his helmet or albow pads off when he went climbing. I thought "how thoughtful of him" so I didn't have to worry if he fell down....

Silent Sunday.

An end to all the Christmas parties.....

Thursday night was the last of the many Christmas shenanigans we've been running to all week. For some reason all the Christmas parties etc. land in one week but on a positive note, then it's done and we can relax!
Anyway, Thursday the princess and 2 other girls from her class were singing, something she'd really been looking forward to! Sorry the quality is not great on the pictures, we were too far away.

She was so cool and all three of them were very sweet singing their hearts out! There were lots of other perfomances and the little man got a bit fidgety and decided to overlook it all form the top......

Friday morning it was two tired children who were woken by an equally tired mummy..... But now we can relax and enjoy the weekend. Today with playdates, tomorrow in the house as the weatherman has promised a big snowstorm will hit us!! I don't mind so much as long as it's calmed down on monday and the snow is cleared off the roads.

What are you up to this weekend??

Snow!

Dripping wax....

Well, that's a direct translation from Danish 'dryppe lys' whether it's right I do not know. It does say what I mean though, literally!
Light a candle and let the wax drip into a small bowl of cold water. That's what the princess, little man and I were doing yesterday. They were very proud to be allowed to hold the candle and use it to light a new colour, then blow out the candle just used. They were very careful and no hair was burnt... Might be because I was constantly reminding them not to lean over!

Pretty aren't they...??
It's a nice little easy thing to make for the grandparents for Christmas.

The Tooth Fairy!

The little man has lost his first tooth!

"Hey, the internet is not working again...!"

Wordless Wednesday!

Wordless Wednesday or in my case not so Wordless Wednesday....

Nothing like a big cardboard box. Just so exciting to play with.... So we did!

Let's decorate it... We did, put blankets in and on top to make it cosy!

What is it then...?? Well, you choose! It can be anything you like it to be.

The little man and the cat Muffin

A packet came today.....

From Amazon filled with must haves!

I love shopping online from Amazon! I love waiting in excitement for the packet to arrive!

Do you shop on the internet?

Been there, done that, got the picture....

About a hundred metres away from me she was, the Queen of Denmark, right here in our little town! The sun deciding to look out from behind the clouds as she is here. I was impressed, so was the daddy, the princess and little man not so much.... Here she is next to the Mayor who married us less than a week ago!

 Can't really blame them being a bit bored with all the waiting around...

Have a great weekend and don't forget to join the Weekend Blog Hop over at Clairejustine.
