Fødselsdag / Birthday

Hende her fyldte 3 år, og det var herligt at kunne være med til fødselsdag! Når man bliver 3 kan man virkelig glæde sig og nyde, at man har fødselsdag, selv om det vist var lidt overvældende for hende da huset pludselig var fuldt med gæster. 

Hun blev meget glad for alle sine gaver (og storesøsteren blev vist lidt misundelig!)

This girl turned 3, and it was wonderful being able to go to her birthday! When you turn 3, you can really look forward to stuff and enjoy your party, although I think it was a bit overwhelming for her when the house was suddenly filled with guests. 

She was really happy with all her gifts (and her big sister got a bit jealous!)

Vi havde lagkageløb. Den sjoveste post var helt sikkert da vi skulle gætte hvad fødselsdagsbarnet havde svaret på nogle spørgsmål. Det var mega-svært, selv om vi havde hovedpersonen selv på vores hold. Hun kunne heller ikke gætte det.....

Lagkagerne blev rimeligt forskellige, selv om der var det samme i, men de smagte godt. (Der blev også prøvesmagt en del under produktionen!)

We had like a treasure hunt, but gathering ingredients for a layer cake. The most fun was trying to guess what the birthday girl answered for some questions. It was seriously hard, although we had the girl herself on our team. She couldn't guess either......

The cakes turned out quite different, although the ingredients were the same, and they were yummy. (There was quite a bit of tasting during the production!)

Man kunne også holde baby! Her gik det ud på at holde ham sovende lidt længere. Når han var vågen, kiggede han lidt skeptisk på mig, men vi blev da nogenlunde venner!

Det bliver sjovt at se ham når han bliver større!

There was the chance of holding the baby! Here, I was keeping him sleeping a bit longer. Once he was awake, he looked at me quite skeptical, but I think we ended up being friends. 

It will be fun to see this one grow up!

Næste dag gik vi tur ned i garnbutikken, og jeg fandt ud af, at der faktisk kan være hele 3 børn i/på en barnevogn! Storesøster lagde sig under vognen, og så gik det rimelig nemt at komme hjem op ad bakken. For børnene, altså. Min niece er sej!

The next day, we walked down to the yarn store, and I discovered that a pram can hold 3 children in/on it! The oldest one lay under the pram, and then it was really easy getting home, up the hill. For the kids, you know. My niece is really cool!

Pigerne "hjalp" også deres far med at samle skab. 

The girls also "helped" their dad building a closet. 

Det var bare mega-hyggeligt at se dem igen, og turen i garnbutikken skal I nok høre mere om. Jeg har jo ikke strikket noget til de to tøser i meget lang tid, men NU skal det være! De har selv været med til at bestemme, og jeg tror det bliver godt. 

Togturen hjem gik med at strikke på noget af det. 

It was just so lovely seeing them again, and you'll hear more about the trip to the yarn shop. I haven't knit stuff for the 2 girls for a very long time, but NOW I'll do it! They helped decide what I'll be knitting, and I'm sure it will be great. 

Going home on the train, I spent some time knitting...
