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.

Rocking Horse

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.

Christmas Tree

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

Calvin shows off his new camera smile.

"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 :)

The Grandparents

Tuxedo

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 :)
