Birthdays!

Last weekend we celebrated the boys birthdays. Fredrik turned 12 and Oliver 1.
It was a lovely day and we spent some of the day on the beach - loved by both the boys and parents. The rest of the weeks has seen fantastic weather - hot and sunny and Oliver and myself have tried to be at the beach at least once a day - and have managed it too.

Oliver had his first birthday party with 4 little friends with mums (and one brother) attending. The others are between 17 and 20 months. He enjoyed the presents and the cakes, though he got a little shy when we sang for him.

Otherwise we have now been granted our permenant residency - horray - finally done - and are now planning on staying. House in London will soon go up for sale and we are househunting here on the Northern Beaches (lots of money needed though....=).

Our internet has been out for a week now and will probably not be fixed for another week or so - despite chasing the company who unplugged us....Niclas has sorted a temporary thing through work this weekend (great to have a hubbie in the mobile industry) but next week will be less internet for myself at home.
