Brand Henry Tjorteland Conibear

So his name is finally decided.

Brand Henry Tjorteland Conibear

No not a common name here either, for any great reference point you are going to have to think of Ibsen's Brand

silent 'd', btw.


Henry after Silje's maternal grandfather.


Brand considers how much of a hassle spelling his name to everybody, forever, is actuallly going to be.

Beware of the carrots

Maud discovered that when eating raw carrots with loose teeth there can only be one outcome.
Time for the tooth fairy to visit for the second time in a week.

Critical mass and other happenings

Henny's hair, finally after a marathon 3 years and 2 months, has reached critical mass. Instead of walking round with it sticking out all over the place it falls, almost neatly, unders its own weight. Still not had it cut, that will be the next milestone.

 

 

another loss for Maud...

 

again a bit on the early side but the first front tooth has gone, the second is flapping about in the wind, so will follow shortly.

 

 

He hasn't either teeth or hair, so doesn't care.

 

Nut I, II and III

Difficult to compare as they we all born at different stages both early and late and of course the pictures take at different stages.
It would also appear that most of my early pictures of Maud are pretty out of focus, thankfully me and my camera did have some moments of clarity (and maybe digital cameras have become even more idiot proof too)
So here for a rough comparison. I, II and III

 

 

 

Up to date, for the moment.

So some up to date pictures take in a lull after a day at nursery for the girls, a day at work for me, a day being a baby for Lillebror aka. Jr. no name.

A lillte brother is quite exciting....

but Nintendo is more exciting.

Kids in vests hang out, Maud has her appearances to keep.

Facebook meh, Milkface is where it's at.

hectic a go go

So what have we actually managed to do in his first 3 weeks, really?
Well he has of course eaten, slept and pooped a lot, had visits from Mormor and Morfor and Grandma, bothered his sisters by crying while they are trying to watch TV, kept us awake at nights, kept us busy during the days.

Not so often this photo opportunity comes around., and everybody sits still long enough for it to be taken.
