More pics from Amsterdam




My first trip to China


I'm less than 3 months old and a few days before Christmas I had my first flight. It was a cold day with snow we left Oslo and Norway. The first leg of my journey was to Amsterdam. All the time I have behaved so good that I don't think my parents were even nervous before this long trip. I cried a little bit at the beginning because it was so noisy and also because next to us was a small boy who cried all the time, but then my mother gave me some milk and everything was ok and I also got some sleep.

In Amsterdam we had a break and it was so much to see....so many shops, lights and Christmas decorations.

The airplane from Amsterdam to Beijing was soo big! We also got some special seats at the front of the middle row which was for babies. After a while they hung up a cradle on the wall in front of the seats in which I could sleep...and I did sleep a lot. In this airplane it was a steady low noise from the engines that made me sleepy. I don't think I was to much trouble for my parents. When I was not sleeping or eating my daddy walked around with me in his arms and a lot of people liked to look at me and smiled to me...and I smiled back to them...that's what I'm supposed to do, isn't it?

The flight took around 9 hours and my parents said I slept maybe more than half of that time.

Beijing greated us with sunshine but a bit cold. My Grandparents and one of my uncles received us at the airport and then we drove in mama's car to my new home in Beijing.

Still growing...and smiling

I was at the Health Center again today and guess what...I had put on 240 gr in exactly one week, so today I was 6430 gr.
The bad part of todays visit was that they gave me an injection again and oh, boy..it was painfull.
I was a bit sceptic at first because I think I remebered this place and the same thing happened last time I was there as well...so next time I come there I don't know what i will do! I can't promise to behave so good then as I have done so far.
Nothing to smile about today but the last few weeks I have started to smile and laugh more and more...I think my parents was a bit worried because I didn't smile in the beginning. Well, it was not that I wasn't happy but it was so many other things to consider...I had no time or energy.
But now it's ok, and I also found out that it pays to keep my parents happy!!

This week I was to the Health Center again. I got two vaccinations this time and it was very, very painfull so I had to cry.
At the same time they weighed me and I'm still putting on weight; I was 6190 gr this time.

Christmas Party


Last weekend I was at my first Christmas party at Noa's home. Leah was also there. It was nice to see them again. Noa's parents and Regine had decorated the house nicely and also made traditional Norwegian Christmas food....it was good...at least so they say...I was not allowed to even taste it! Maybe next time I will.

To go there we travelled by train and I really liked that. It took nearly 1,5 hour but all the time I was sitting on my daddy's lap watching the landscape passing by...it was nice and even more interesting than TV..and so many screens!! I didn't sleep at all so I was tired when I arrived but I found it a bit difficult to sleep there...I have never slept anywhere else before and everything was so strange...not the same things I was used to seeing from my own bed so I couldn't relax properly and also it was a bit noisy, so many people and I'm not used to that either.

Anyway, it was a nice and very interesting day for me. I looked forward to go by train back again but then I was so tired that I slept all the way home.
