Here are some pictures taken with my cellphone:

When we got there he wanted to look at everything. Trying to get as close as he could. He didn’t mind other people close, he just wanted to get a good view. We started with flamingos, lions and camels. The first was a ‘fuuu’ (translated it is ‘fugl’ which means ‘bird’). The second and the third both were ‘vov vov’ (meaning ‘dog’). There was a lot of ‘ohh’ and ‘ahh’ again. This time no trucks, but animals also do the trick. He loved it there. We stayed till closing time. We saw almost everything there; monkeys, elefants, tigers, butterflies, snakes, turtles, girafs, horses, sea lions, fish, birds and lots lots more. About halfway, we stopped for icecream. Jack got his chocolate icecream in a little cup that looks like an elefant. Now he can use it as a mug. He ran around a lot and didn’t really want to sit in the stroller we brought with us. We were outside again at 18h. On the way home, Jack fell asleep; a very tired little boy. We picked up pizza on our way home, since it was already very late. They gave Jack a lollipop, so he was happy. We drove home to the grandparents, ate, collected Jacks bag, packed the car and drove home. It was way over Jacks bedtime, but he had a great day.

I forgot my camera , so had to take pictures with my cellphone again. Here are a few of them:

After his nap, we went shopping and when we got home, I had to start making dinner. I took a big box and drew a stove on it. Gave Jack a few pots, potatoes, an union, a few carrots, an empty milkcarton and a few spoons. He was totally into it and started making dinner. Gave me the posibility to make our dinner. He loved it and was very concentrated.

Here are some pictures. Again taken with my cellphone and this time, some are a little unsharp. Hope you get an impression anyway.

After his nap, we went to the beach at Furesø. At first he didn’t really want to go into the water, so I only took of his pants. He used his shovel to collect watery sand and tried not to get his toes too wet (didn’t work – small waves kept on getting them). After about half an hour, he was used to the colder water and ran in. I hurried to take his shirt and diaper off, but they got totally wet anyway. He ran from one side of the beach to the other in the shallow childfriendly water. Slowly he went further and further, splashing his shovel into the water as he went. He even sat down a few times – not for long, since the small waves hit him and then he got up. It was soooo much fun. Too bad mom thought that 20 minutes in the water was enough. The water was 21 degrees celsius. It wasn’t cold, but still a lot colder than the water in the swimmingpool. It was also time to get back home for dinner. So we walked back again (another 30 minutes walk). Did some shopping and were home again at 18.30h. Quickly made some easy dinner, took a short shower and it was bedtime for the little man. He had a great day.

Just a few minutes ago he laughed in his sleep. I can imagine he remembers his nice day

While we were walking around, Jannik relaxed, tried to eat and drink according to his tight plan and even went for a walk to the parkinglot. He actually saw us out on the way to the beach. After his walk he was sooo tired he couldn’t keep himself awake. So when we got back, dad was sleeping. I am very proud of my handsome husband. He already lost a total of 25 kilos. It’s a hard road, but he is doing it, making me proud along the way. Way to go hubby.

Here are some pictures of our walks today. They are taken with my cellphone, so they are not super high quality:

The pictures will explain (the pictures are taken with my cellphone, so the quality is not super).

Sometimes Jack is allowed to listen to music, using dads headset. He just loves to sit there and watch the shapes change on the screen. Lovely colours and shapes. When my mom, Lamsi, sister and Marcus were here for a visit (for Janniks birthday), Jack was allowed to play the drums on the wii. He loved to hit … everywhere. It was extremely funny. He laughed a lot. He also made us some food, while playing his new keyboard. Very funny. When I pretend to eat from his play-plate, he also takes a bite. He even says ‘Ahhh’. The last picture in this series is takes right after bath-time. Jack has some good marks on his nose. He got those in kindergarden. They went playing on the playground and since Jack wasn’t used to walking around in his boots, he fell down a lot. He had his hands inside his sleeves, so instead of using his hands to brake the fall, he used his nose. They said that he didn’t even cry that much. But his nose looked terrible for a while.

Jannik had a great 40th birthdayparty. He got a lot of presents and attention. We had ordered an entire pig for the bbq and a butcher to prepare it. The also made a lot of salat and potatoos. It was a great meal. There were kids there too, so Jack had a lot of fun as well. I drove him, my sister and Marcus home around 22 o’clock. A very tired little man. I went back to join the party again, while my sister and Marcus were Jacks babysitters. He slept like a …. baby

Last week the weather become better. The sun came out and the temperature went up. So it was time to play outside.

We invited 3 kids (Kasper, Lærke and Emil) and their parents in the morning. One wasn’t able to come, due to fever. Janniks parents were there as well. In the afternoon Janniks grandma (Jacks greatgrandma) and our nabours came for a visit. My mom and Lammert were there on Skype.

Jack also received presents from:

* Leif and Hanne

* My dad, Joke and my grandma sent a present by mail from Holland. It arrived a few days after Jacks birthday.

* Janniks parents had a gift from Janniks other grandma, since she unfortunately wasn’t able to be there.

Thanks everybody for the great gifts. Jack is a lucky boy.

Shortly after his birthday, Jack started walking alone. Still a little shacky, but he walks. Well done little Jackus.

We had a great Christmas with Janniks parents, grandparents and sister with kids. Thanks guys for a great Christmaseve.

Jack startet with ’saying hi’ to everybody. Malte and Noah were extremely interesting. He kept on crawling after Noah and Noah enjoyed playing with Jack; picking him up, showing him things and talking to him. So sweet.

Then it was time for dinner. Jack got some white and brown (sugar) potatos with brown sauce. He loved it. He even got to taste ‘flæskesteg’. He liked that a lot too. The red cabage was not such a big succes, but who can blame him with all the other jummy stuff around. For desert he got ‘risalamande’. That was the biggest succes. He couldn’t get enough.

After dinner we danced around the beautifull Christmastree – Jack on my arm. He was looking at the tree and all of us going around. The last dance he got to sit on my shoulders. It’s a fast one where you almost run and jump around. He looooved that. Couldn’t stop laughing and looking at everybody action funny.

Finally it was time for the gifts. There were lots of gifts under and in the tree. Malte and Noah passed them around. Jack hardly knew where to look, so much happening at the same time. He enjoyed the wrappings a lot. By the time he unpacked half of his gifts, he was extremely tired. He didn’t want to sleep though. Too much fun. So when we went home around 22 o’clock, he was exhausted. Fell asleep in the car.

Respecting the wish of wanting to be anonomous, I removed the person out of the pictures. That’s why there are black shapes on some of the pictures.

On the second day of Christmas Jack made a very nice painting. Actually, he made a lot of paintings. He is very fast. Afterwards he looked like…. well…. like he painted, using everything. Here you go:

Yesterday we took Jacks new babysleigh for a ‘ride’.  It is a very safe baby thing. He sits on/in a little chair and has a rim around his waist. There is enough snow. Maybe there was too much snow. It was definately hard for me to pull him around. My pants got wet to the knees. Oh well, Jack enjoyed it a lot. Here are some pictures:

When we got back home, Jack played with one of his new cars. He also managed to get his hands on the little case for my camera. He kept on opening and closing it. It has velcro, so it makes a very funny sound. He enjoyed it so much, that he kept on dragging it around the rest of the day

Such a sweet little guy. He wants to try everything and see everything. He takes after his mom

On wednesday he was ‘the elf of the day’. They took a picture of him and put it in a little frame. We got the picture as a christmasgift
