Jonas got baptised

On Saturday we celebrated Jonas' baptism... and my birthday. Jonas did amazing in the church, unfortunately we weren't allowed to photograph or record during the ceremony, because I would have loved a recording of what happened.



We got up there, and Jonas was okay, he had been crying or anything... and as soon as the priest looked at him and started talking, he put on his best and biggest smile... which made her loose focus, and every time she said a sentence he smiled even more, so it ended up with her laughing, us laughing and the whole church laughing, it was hilarious. So she ended up saying I guess this didn't turn out all that solemnly, and afterwards when she gave us a bible she told him that she would never forget him. She lost it completely, she tried taking a deep breath, but her hands were shaking from laughing, it would have been so fun to have had that on tape:)

Me and Jonas at the church after the ceremony, not the best picture of me... well the best of those we have from the church the others are awful...

After the church we had lunch and a small celebration at home, and the weather was perfect... well I'm not the one to complain, but maybe it was actually a bit too hot:)

Otherwise I have been busy with getting ready for the party so I haven't had time to read blogs or anything, so soon I will try to catch up... depending on how long Jonas plans on napping, because he has reached another milestone... his first tooth has just broken out and another one is on the way, that combined with the heat makes a bit of an upset baby, though surprisingly he slept through the night... then again he hardly slept at all yesterday.



Have a great week everyone!

Spring, friends and invitations

It's been a great week so far... the spring has come to Denmark, and I'm hoping it's staying. Though they have talked about snow tomorrow, I find it hard to believe with the great weather we have right now, it's not super warm, but the sun is shining, and Jonas are sleeping outside in his pram. The great weather also gives us the opportunity to go for long walks, which hopefully will lead to me loosing a few more pounds:)


Yesterday a friend of mine came for a visit with her baby, whom suddenly seemed amazingly big... I guess with Jonas only being 3 weeks, Ella just seems huge being 8 months:) It was really nice seeing her again, we used to work in the same department, but after she went on maternity leave we haven't been the best at keeping in touch. Unfortunately she is going back to work soon, so instead of taking her full maternity leave she is saving some, and are therefore able to only work 30 hours a week the next year and a half. Wouldn't that be cool? I won't be able to do that though, since I'm employed as a leader, and therefore don't have a fixed schedule.


Today I have done a little light cleaning while Jonas is sleeping, and I have made the invitations for his baptism, and if I have to say it myself they turned out pretty great:)



We are having the baptism on my birthday. We were planning on having it the day after, since my birthday is on Saturday, but our church apparently have special baptism services the first Saturday in the month, so come June 4th Jonas is getting baptised.


Now I'm looking forward to the weekend, where we will have some friends over for dinner. So depending on Jonas' mood we will see who is cooking the dinner, me of the husband:) Have a great weekend everyone when you get there!
