Oliver had been practising the Lucia songs all week at daycare and at home, but when the time came he got stage fright and wandered around in the audience instead of singing with the other kids. It was probably our fault, because Erik and I started to wave at him when they came out, and when Oliver saw us he was so happy to greet us with hugs and kisses that he forgot about the other stuff. He is such a cutie! And yes, my tiny gingerbreadman ate a lot of gingerbread.
Three days left until my calculated due date and still nothing. Not even a hint that this baby will come out soon. Did I mention that I am impatient and curious? To put it in perspective; even up to this date when I, for most of the time, count as a grown up, have to open one present on Christmas morning because I'm that curious! Just imagine what I feel like now.. Pregnancy and having kids is truly a humbling experience though and I am immensely thankful for it.
How can I still be tired after sleeping two hours at noon?? I guess I have some catching up to do sleepwise. Also, having this terrible cold with a cough makes that need to rest even bigger. We are not even going to talk about the pain in my joints because then you would mistake me for a 90 year old lady.. Otherwise I'm just dandy! B-)
Yesterday while I was waiting for Erik to come home from a dinner in the city, Catrin came over spontaneously as if she had a radar to when we could have a little girl talk. We have both been busy this past six months so it was really nice to see her again. On Monday I had lunch with Frida who I similarly haven't seen as often as I would like. I hope that I will see my friends more often now that I will be on maternity leave! You know who you are..
The snow is falling, I have to take the bus and I got just a few hours of sleep last night so it was compelling to entertain the thought of just staying at home instead..
