Skjåk, Tarifa, hiking and fun

In the middle of september Steve and Lukas went to Skjåk for the annual "potato-picking" at Tante Anna's farm. Lukas helped out a lot and you can see how proud he is. He was very happy to get so much love and attention.


In september/october the family went to Tarifa.It was sp wonderful to see Lukas run around naked enjoying the sun and the light. We saw a lot of animals and Lukas is very at imitating their sound. We almost cured hid dog-paranoia with a cute puppy Juanco and Lucy had, but almost.
Lukas was very proud when he could hang out with the big guys (Steves friend) and learnt to give besos (kisses) to all the spanish women. He also picked up "no" (spanish) and has a very good accent.
Lukas like to go out in the nature and studies every little detail. He is physical and jumps and runs. We see a lot of Lea and they enjoy eachothers company very much. Today we went to an african "concert" and Lukas was mesmerised by the different sounds. When it comes to language he speaks in some sentences now and mostly norwegian. But he understands of course everything Steve says. He is generelly a happy easy-going boy but we do see his temper and strong personality developing. Ikke (not) is used quite often these days.











We wish you all happy thanksgiving!

Babysitting Lukas







We had Lukas for a whole day last weekend. Marit brought him out so we had dinner (pancakes) before taking a bath and going to bed. He ate a lot of pancakes with homemade jam. He fell asleep right-away when we put him to bed and slept for 12 hours.

The next day it was raining, but we put on rain clothes and took him for a walk to a place called "Furuholmen", west of Oslo. Here we had waffles and cakes. They have an open fireplace, end Lukas enjoyed throwing papers into the open fire.

In the evening we had dinner in a restaurant called Leangkollen west of Oslo, together with Steve and Marit. Lukas behaved very well, and tried many of the dishes.
