"Sverige är fantastiskt!"

It´s almost a month since we left Perth!
We arrived in Stockholm Sunday 13 April and it was snowing, however it melted very quickly. We stayed with Tina and Gunnar for a few days to catch up with them. We also met up with Susanna and Miguel for lunch and coffee with some of Maria´s friends from primary school.
On the Thursday we hopped on the train to travel down south to Noah´s grandparents in Lundsbrunn. They were sooo excited to meet our little bundle of joy for the first time!

Lundsbrunn is famous for its water springs and has been a health resort for the last two centuries, now with a modern Spa resort in the village.
After a week on the countryside with the beautiful forest just a minute´s walk away from Aina & Mats house, we have had plenty of fresh air and rest. We are having a wonderful time, jogging and taking long walks in the forest, golfing and making excursions to the nearby sights of this area of Sweden. We are yet to try out the Spa!

Noah´s Godmother Annelie, from Göteborg, has already been here on a visit- she thought he was much cuter in real life (mum and dad very proud hehe). Noah loves all the attention!

Noah has developed heaps the last two weeks. He can now grab things with his hands and reaches out for everything. He is also very interested in what we eat! He follows every move we make at the table and wants to get hold of it so he can explore what it is that we put in our mouths. Happiest is the little man sitting on the lap with a bottle so he can drink while the rest of us eat ;-).

This morning we visited the child health nurse- all was good. We received a bottle of AD vitamine, Swedish kids take this during the winter months due to the lack of sun light. Even though spring is here now it´s good for someone like Noah to eat is, as a true Aussie boy he is used to lots and lots of sun!

Time for a walkie- clear blue sky and 14 degree- perfect!

Will upload pictures soon...
