Having become confined within the flat of late, and subjected to the miserable rainfall and darkness of the encroaching Danish winter, decent photo opportunities of the Snoos have become rare. Yesterday (by which I really mean Wednesday) was her 16 month birthday and try as I might I could not get a decent image of her for not only was my mind distracted by my health worries, but Freja herself is become some what unphotogenic with a constant sheen of drool and snot decorating her lower facial features. To make matters worse, her palid winter physionogomy reflects the camera's flash making her face look like a ghost, who saw a ghost.
Happily her state of constant drooling infection has spared her mood and she appears to be the same happy child she was at the end of summer. Though we have been witness to a rise in temperamental outpourings of anger, these I believe, reflect the influence of her peers at the day care centre more than a natural inclination towards petulance. Of late her interests can be summed up very quickly, eating, going shopping with Mummy, fiddling (with any and everything) and of course, watching her Pingu DVD's whilst sitting in her box. As you can see from the official 16 month image as well, her box is very popular, especially when complemented by a second box!
Når, det er længe siden jeg har haft lyst til at skrev noget på Dansk. Jeg finder at jeg flyver som en fugl på Engelsk men halter som en gammel pingvin på Dansk. Her på det sidst har jeg heller ikke haft det for godt, men nok om det for nu.
Snus'en har haft det sjøvt i dag. Hun har haft besøge på vuggestuen af ingen ringe end Julemanden! Mette var med men hendes foto kundskaber end endnu være end min dansk færdigheder og det var ingen billeder af Freja med... men når du kommer forbi kan dualtid se de vido kilp hun tog. Det går ellers som det plejer her i Århus. Vores kær veninde Malena har ikke haft det for godt på det sidste da hendes bror er blivet alvorligt syge og det har påvirket os begge to ret meget at se hende så trist. Det er også svært at stå så magtesløs over for livets gang.
Freja er lidt forkølet, som altid nu om dage og har været sig selv. For det mest af tiden er hun enten i god humor og leger og ser Pingu, ellers er hun sulten og vil har opmærksomhed. Ganske som alle andre Dansk børn tror jeg. Hun har haft nogle 'tur' om natten men for det mest er hun okay. Stakkels Mette bliver vågnet mange gang, og jeg sover mest på sofa'en nu om dage, men det har ikke så meget med Freja (eller Matte) at gøre. Jeg har bar ikke haft det så godt.

Isn't it amazing what Amazon can send throught the post nowadays? I must have missed the tab on their homepage for snot faced little kids!
Her moods are just her having to adjust to being around other people during the day and learning social boundaries that weren't there before. Don't worry about it it's all part of her development.
She does look happy though.
Its right next to the tab for demanding teenagers
