Calvin's New Crawl

Calvin has always crawled commando style - he is really speedy and totally unique. Just in the past couple of days, he has taken to crawling "normally"...not too sure how I feel about it! Luckily for me, he often still drops to his tummy and slides.

A picture for posterity - the women and children inside...

...the men out in the shed smoking cigars!

Dancing Around the Tree

In Denmark, Christmas is celebrated on the 24th in the evening - after dinner, just before opening the presents, you dance around the tree singing carols. Luckily for everyone I had an excuse - I don't know the words!

Good Sport


Between bad weather, lost baggage, closed rental car agencies, and taxis unwilling to take us anywhere without a babyseat (which was in the rental car!), it took us nearly 24 hours to get from London, England to Kalvehave, Denmark. Worst travel story in history - and all things considered, Calvin was a really good sport! Here he is relaxing in the car the last leg of our epic journey.

Laura, Elsie and I braved a new place, the local Italian deli...Calvin decided we were a bit boring and went to hang out with the cakes under the deli counter.

East Bar


We went to a really cool bar/restaurant in Hamburg called East Bar - Calvin was a champ and stayed up past his bedtime while we had cocktails, and even managed to sleep in the next morning.

Crazy Face

Sandbox at Little Stars




"Why play inside in the warm clean playroom when I can play outside and get dirty and wet?"

Bad Weather Buggy Ride

The weather is getting pretty dire here - cold and wet! Calvin doesn't seem to mind though, all tucked up in this buggy.

Birthday Pics



Some pictures from the party - the middle one is Calvin with his girlfriend Elsie, and the one underneath that is of Calvin's first birthday cake...which I found out the next day had alcohol in it! What a party :)

Calvin had his first birthday party at the Martini Bar (where else?!) although it was technically not in the bar - it was in a room downstairs :)

Birthday Boy!

Calvin turned one on Saturday, 28th November - I can't believe it's been a year! We opened presents in the morning and he loved all the ribbons and packaging...Christmas is going to be fun this year :)
