The must-have birthday banner. Since our printer broke down, this old mother had to draw everything....
The little prince who turned 4!
Angel must have really loved the cake!
His favorite - opening presents!
So many to open!
After spending money on toys, turned out that Kinder Egg is his favorite....
On 13th December, Sweden celebrates St. Lucia Day. All schools will have their own Lucia procession, which consists of kids dressed up as St. Lucia, handmaidens, star boys and ginger bread boys, singing songs. This was Chris's first year participating in the Lucia procession and they had been training really hard for weeks with the different songs.
On that day, all proud parents, grandparents and siblings were sitting in the dark, waiting for the procession to start. Finally the door opened and out walked the girl dressed up as Lucia, it started! Chris was a little bit behind in the line, and he looked so cute in the ginger bread boy costume and singing along. When he realized that there were a lot of people watching, he started searching in the crowd for mommy and daddy. As he was searching, they sat him down together with a few other smaller kids in the front row. Our eyes met, he found me! My heart swelled with pride, my little baby singing and taking part! Just then, his face crumpled, he pulled down his beautifully trimmed hat, threw it on the floor, tears started to fall and wailed,"I want mommy!" I deflated like a balloon....
After pouting from the beginning to the end, he finally reconciled with his daddy.....
And recovered from his melodramatic episode very quickly to start munching on gingerbread cookies!
