Aunt Onne

A day filled with activities, meeting up with Tanya, Dan, Victor, and Oscar; we had a great time! Aunt Onne is looking after me and Alexander, because Mom and Dad are away for their 5th anniversary. Tomorrow we’re going to watch Madagascar 2 at the movies!

Chair upgrade

After what seems like ages of waiting, I have finally been upgraded. Or rather, my car seat has been upgraded. Dad put up my “baby seat” for sale (which took all of four hours from ad to sale), and then I inherited Alexander’s “car seat”. He, in turn, was upgraded to just a seat cushion.

Still with me?

Anyway, the point is, I can now sit in the car and stretch my legs. The frog pose was getting a bit tedious. This also means I moved into the back seat!

Wii Fit

Mom got a Wii Fit from all of us for Mother’s Day this year, and we’ve had a blast with it so far. The whole family have played it today, and they all had a good laugh when I tried the “Hula hoop”. Some of the exercises are a bit too hard for me, but it’s great fun trying. Alexander was good at the balance type games, and Mom did aerobics really well. I can very much recommend this cool gadget!

Day care

It’s been a hectic first few months of the year; not only have I had to get used to a new game platform (the Nintendo DS), but I’ve also had to muster the switching of day care from my old Purpurn to Hjalmar. It took some getting used to, but now things are moving along nicely. I’m making a lot of new friends and having a blast.

The past few weeks have been chaotic. Alexander got streptococcus and had to eat penicillin twice. While he was recovering, Mom ended up with pneumonia which she’s still not 100% recovered from.

On the upside, we’ve gotten Mario Kart Wii, which is way cool. About a week ago we went to visit Jon, Jo, and Freya to play some Guitar Hero for the Wii, and do some Mario Kart racing. It was good fun. I really like Freya, and I always have a blast when I see her.

FilipLite

Mom and dad finally figured out that the situation with Alexander’s NDS Lite was becoming unbearable, and did something about it.

So today Mom and Alexander went to town to pick-up my very own NDS Lite. To make life easier, they got me a black one, so we didn’t have to spend time arguing which of the two white NDS belonged to whom.

Sure, the Nintendo GBA that I got from Santa for Christmas was great .. but Alexander’s DSlite looked like so much more fun. It took me some time to figure out the way the DSlite worked, but now I’m better at handling the DSlite than the good ol’ GBA!

Favorites include Martio Kart and Star Wars II; the complete saga.

Considering I was supposed to get this for my 5th birthday in July, I think I got a pretty good deal :-)

Gameboy Advance

After the 2007 xmas, I am now the proud owner of a Nintendo Gameboy Advance SP. It looks very much like the one Alexander had, I’m a bit suspicious about that, but on the other hand, who cares.. :-)

Santa brought me two new games, and Alexander was generous enough to donate most of his GBA games to me; Santa brought him a Nintendo DS.

We spent the entire holidays at the cottage on Blidö and did basically nothing. Well, we played a lot of video games (GBA and Wii), ate a lot of candy, walked in the woods, and generally just chilled. Dad had gotten us some excellent fireworks, which was very cool.

Also turns out I’m quite skilled at bowling (203 is my current high-score), at least Wii style :-)

Monday morning it’s back to daycare, 2008 here we go!
