Citizenship!

Yesterday, I got a message from mr. Bo Lundberg at the Swedish Immigration Service who wrote that he has approved our appliance for Erik's citizenship! Now our Tax Authority has to issue a certain temporary social security number to him before the consulate can issue his first passport. He will not be proud of his passport picture for sure :D
Otherways we are living and loving our wonderful life here, not missing neither the cold winter in Sweden nor our own bed. Lakeside beds are great, haha!

Oh, yeah!

New Swedish citizen
Heavy load :)

Our little man is doing well at 3 weeks and 2 days today. Today is his due date, 25th of January. On sunday and monday he had 2 days when he was constantly asking for being breastfed and I was very much concerned whether I should start complementing with formula. But with great support from my wise friends both in Estonia and Sweden (thank you, Kristi and Sofia!) I just continued breastfeeding and let him "hang in my breast" as much as he wished for - he was happy just to be there. After 2 days everything is back to usual again and I'm feeling quite certain that he gets what he needs. phuuh! Anyway, yesterday, we bought a soother for him but he seems to be of the same "only the original will do"-breed as Jennifer. I'm still trying to convince him to accept the pacifier, it works sometimes and for short periods. The future will show, whether the soother is a keeper or not.

I tried out this doctor fish pedicure they have at every mall here. I can highly recommend it, it is fantastic. I'm the most ticklish person and I could enjoy it very much.
We take a riksha ride every day at the hotel area. Jennifer loves it very much :)

And finally, a family photo of us:

  2. Härliga bilder och underbart att höra att amningen fungerar så bra. Vera hade också perioder när hon ville ligga vid bröstet mest hela tiden.
