Vancouver 2010 Olympic fever
Granville Island turned into the Francophone Pavillion. Kristi, Chris, Adam and Chris on a Sunday out.
Chris, Chris and Adam with 2 (empty?) strollers on Granville Island enjoying sunshine and art installations (well, the art was a bit cryptic actually...).
We went to see cross-country at the Nordic Center outside Whistler. This was the day for 30 km men's mixed with classic and freestyle. Here is the arena with the leading skiers coming in in. A great experience - the area was beautiful and you could enjoy a beer in the sunshine while watching world class sport. Oh, and the 3 countries dominating the top 10 were... Sweden, Germany and Canada!
Sweden won gold and bronze!!!
Possibly unexpected to the iniated, totally unexpected for Malin who thought a flag would be too nationalistic to buy... So here she had to ask a Swede if she could "borrow" a corner of a flag to be part of the Swedish crowd cheering the winner on. Mango learnt "heja, heja!"...
Chris and Adam went to see Sweden beat Finland in ice hockey. Since they didn't have a Swedish flag, Chris brought along the second most Swedish attribute - Pippi Longstocking.

Reading book
Anna made this fantastic book with creative inspiration from Sandy. Mango has recently showed increased interest in reading (and eating) books. Other favourites include a book about shapes and one about animals around the world.

Canada Outfits
This is Emelie and Adam, our yoga friends.
We thought this photo would be interesting especially for you who are not living in Vancouver, today the BIG day of the Olympic Opening Ceremony. Emelie and Adam are wearing the Canada hoddies that have become so popular, maybe even a trademark for these games.

Visiting friends in Bellingham
Me (Malin) and Mango did a small roadtrip on our own down south, crossing the border to the US. We went to Bellingham where our friends from Sweden live: Sara, Emilie, Olivia and Victoria (yes, Mango is in the photo as well).
Olivia and Mango playing. Olivia is 3 months younger than Mango and it's neat to follow the two of them growing. Mango really liked her toys as well as her dog, Bella.
We finished the day with really tasty sushi in one of those restaurants where the sushi is circulating around and you pick the ones you want (way too many...). It was such a nice day, thanks a lot!

Mom & baby yoga
Mango getting ready for our yoga class, Mondays and Wednesdays at Semperviva.
Adam and Mango are friends.
They have mats next to each other, share (and steal) toys and dance to reggae.
They are actually the oldest kids in the class - when kids are crawling fast and far they graduate from baby yoga but none of these little kiddos show any interest in crawling...
Theresa, our fantastic instructor
Babies: Mango and Adam

Dinner with the Bekars
Mango and Nathan getting together on a Friday afternoon. This time Mango seemed to be realizing that Nathan is a little friend of his who he can play with, talk to and check out as he is doing bigger kids things (like eating rice and broccoli).
Thanks for a great time!
Mango was so excited about all Nathan's toys that he stayed up in pajamas playing and playing with eyes rolling like he was at Disneyland.

Red
Mango likes cameras. It makes it a bit difficult to take photos of him as he tries to grab the camera...
