The 17th of May is Norway's constitution day and although I live in the UK and won't be celebrating quite as vigorously as my fellow Norwegians *at home*, we made a special Norwegian breakfast for our friend Marcus who spent the night on our sofa. For a more detailed account of what the 17th can do, check out my posts from last year Also, check out our breakfast photos on FlickR

Helene loves books and she loves stories. Sometimes she'll pick a book off the shelf by random and still expect a certain story. For some reason, small people like small things. When I was little, I loved playing with my dad's copy of Chairman Mao's little red book. The same goes for Helene. She loves it. Especially the bit about Belling the Cat.
