Our first trip of 2010 was back to the US. We got a rental car and toured the Midwest to see family and friends. We went to Indiana to congratulate Niclas, who turned 30 years old. We ended up hanging out watching TV, eating sushi and having a really nice weekend. Uncle Niclas and Aunt Autumn also got to meet William for the first time. After Indiana we headed to Chicago. Sandra spent a couple of days going back to her old work, and we meet up with our friends. It was like we never left Chicago. The weather was typical January weather: freezing and snowy. After that we took off to go to visit our friends Jodie and Josh in Rockford. They broke the news to us that they are expecting and will have a baby in July! We are very excited for them and tried to give them all the advice we could. Then it was off to Iowa, where we met up with more friends and Matt's sister and nephews. It was such a great trip that were over way to fast. We ate too much sushi and miss all of our friends and family already. William seem to have no problems with the traveling. He was mostly happy and adjusted to the time zone directly and pretty much slept the entire plane ride. We need to travel more now when he is so cooperative. I posted some photos in a slideshow.
This weekend we went up to Stockholm to visit my parents and to also go to Adrian's (Leila's son) 2 year birthday party. Unfortunately the party got cancelled since Adrian got sick and they also had one shitty (can I use the word in a blog?) week with someone break-in . We were pretty jetlagged still but we really just hung out and relaxed with my parents at night. We did go and visit Linda and then my friend Sara who is expecting and getting really close :)... Then we stopped by Paula's. Bea was such a charmer as always and she was so sweet with William. We have also been continuing with some solid food and since potatoes were not a hit we tried carrots and that was apparently yummy. However what goes in must come out... it sure gets messier not when we are trying solid food.
