A little bit of everything

It´s december and Christmas is coming up soon. We decorate our houses and put lights in the windows and we also make "lussebullar" or "saffransbullar" (saffron buns) wich we eat together with the glögg we drink. (Remember the spices David brought with him to Australia and was the reason he got stuck in customs at the airport??)

Here we are at Davids new apartment, David and I have been baking all day (mom came and helped us after work) and in the afternoon mom and Ulf and dad and Agneta came over to have a taste (and Jim aswell of course).








We want to thank you so much for all the baby clothes! You gave us so much Becky and we really appriciate it. I have rearranged in the bathroom cabinet and fitted all the clothes in there. Now all we need is a baby!






Ulf went up to Hofors where his mother lives and came home with two christmas trees, one for them and one for us. Here it is, waiting to be taken inside the house wich we will probably do this weekend. Also, the snow has arrived, and plenty of it. I hope we get to keep it over Christmas.







Finally, here I am with a big tummy. I´m in week 34 now so not long to go. Everything with the baby looks good so far. He/she is spot on the "growing curve" my midwife measures everytime I visit her, wich is every second week at the moment.

Those Saffron Buns look good enough to eat, wish we were there to help you all eat them and share the celebrations.
The rearranged 'nest' looks great, as do you. You look a picture of health, just be careful walking in the snow.

Love to both. XXX

Just realized that you were cooking at Davids new apartment. It looks very nice and he has it well furnished.

wow you are looking great Elin!
Did you realise you are the same shape as the picture on the wall behind you :)
Glad you like the clothes :)
Shame you aren't here. I have so much baby stuff I don't need that's just too heavy to send to you.
