40 months

The sun is out today, a cool grey February sun, a welcome sun. There is a faint dust of snow on the hills above Sandnes- and some indications that spring will come. We are waiting to leave this month and get into March. Last year the entire month of March was snowy and bright with wonderful clear vibrant blue skies- that kind of weather is described as having 'Påske stemning' here- it means 'a feel of Easter'. Norwegians love to ski at Easter, and especially when the snow and exercise is accompanied with the warm sun on their faces. It is the payout for surviving the dark winter months. The sun today and a return in energy after having a wisdom tooth out last week raised my spirits today.
Lilja is 7 months old today and Naomi is 33- that makes a total of 40 baby months...

Question? what is an ektascope? A cardboard kitchen roll tube you look through- or beat mummy's bottom with!
