Pollo anyone?



Lukas discovered a really good fast food Cuban place down here, Polla Tropical. Aksel and I didn't get to try it until last weekend and we BOTH loved it. It was the first time Aksel ate whole pieces of chicken and didn't spit them out....maybe it was the mustard curry sauce.

Love is in the air......



Aksel has a little girlfriend and her name is Camilla. She is the youngest daughter of my friend, Melissa, from college who lives near us. Camilla is a little younger then Aksel, but they really like spending time together. We have been going to story time every Tuesday morning and this week we went to MOPS together. While we were driving to MOPS I turned around and caught the two of them holding hands in the car while watching a DVD....so cute!!! We think they are totally dating, well as much as you can when you are one years old.

Back at it...




Sorry to all our readers for the long pause in our blog. We moved into our new house, had several visitors, and Annika was sick for about a month and a half. Aksel has been very busy and loves life. He is very independent, loves anything that he can play with a ball, going to the park, going on walks, reading books, playing with trains, and saying several words. He can say, "ball, dog, stuck, car, choo choo, tickle, dad, mom, please, yes" all in his own version. We went to the beach this past week, after having a cold winter, while Laura was here, Aksel thought it was great except didn't like to walk in the sand so he stayed on the towels.
