Maya doesn't get up until almost 10am, which is good because she didn't go to bed until 11pm the night before. She was very excited to see Farfar, Farmor and Malin again, and ate three servings of bolognese at dinner. After dinner, she walked Lucas with Malin and played with Philex, the most friendly cat among the four. Luca slept fairly okay, considering that he barely slept during the flight. He woke up crying several times through the night but after mommy sang his favorite songs to him he fell back to sleep. He gets up at 7am, his usual wake-up time. He's quite grumpy in the beginning, because, I guess, he's still tired and is a bit confused about his whereabouts. But after I take him out for a walk, he is happy. In the past one or two years, Farfar and Farmor have gotten rid of their two horses, the chicken and the geese, and the three pet pigs died, so the farm is less farm-ish than before. Still, Lucas and the four cats keep Maya and Luca busy.
After a quick lunch, we set up the swing outside the barn. Maya and Luca have a lot of fun running around and playing with the cats. Hopefully the weather will be warmer from now on so we can be outdoor longer. Then Farmar and Farmor have to go to a car service appointment. After Farfar and farmor are back, Farmor, Maya, Luca and I take a long walk in the neighborhood. Luca sits in the stroller, dressed with three fleece jackets - the weather is much colder than I thought - and wrapped with a blanket, looking like a Britto. Usually he hates to wear a lot of clothes, but this time he doesn't object, though he still refuses to wear a hat.
Dinner is salmon with white rice. Very tasty. I ask farfar for recipe so I can make it at home. After dinner, farfar goes to the attic and takes down quite a few toys that daddy and malin used to play when they were kids. A rocking horse, small-piece legos, an RV, puzzles and card games.
Finally both kids fall sleep, after a lot of playing and a long bath.
