Happy Mother's Day!

In honor of Mother's Day, here's one more of Oma with the grandbaby:

And of Grandma with him fresh out of the hospital:

Our morning has been fabulous. Lars brought me Danish pastry in bed; I got cards, flowers, and pampering lotions from my moms; Tor behaved in church; and we beat the rain on our walk. Later today we're going shopping for running shoes and eating takeout from our favorite Thai place. I feel very special!

On May 1, our friends Aaron and Allison hosted a post-Easter brunch and egg hunt. They have a 20-month-old daughter, Madeline, who refers to Tor as "baby."

"No photos, please!"

All of the other kids engaged with the eggs at least a little bit.

Milo, 11 months

Sonia, 5 1/2 months

Madeline, 20 months

Annie, 14 months, and Mia, 18 months

And then there was Tor.

We tried to pose him with an egg.

But he just lay there like he'd been poleaxed.

In fact, he was pretty sleepy the rest of the afternoon...

...until the Exersaucer came out. It belongs to Madeline, but Milo's been using it and just brought it back. Now we have it in our living room, so expect video shortly.
