I really wish Antonia would enhance her ability to pose for the camera, though. I've told her time and again that it would strengthen the blog, but so far, she hasn't taken any notice. But I don't give up. Here, I'm teaching her how to smile when mom says "cheese".
And then you guard your position in the playhouse, 'cos you need a base from which you can keep an eye on the others and the availability. 
Weather ornaments that have been used over the past week:
As for participating in portraits... 
...that's less of an absolute no-no.
Actually, way less, at times.
2. My caledar says so.
And every single day, that's a battle I lose. But the message is in the fight. Don't ever think I accept being treated like an object!
By mom, who was impressed to find me rummageing through the big toy case today. Before, I've focused mainly on the small ones, from which you don't fall equally far when the balance fails you.
Helsingborg has a very advanced system for recycling. This inspired Antonia to contribut by making the gift-wrap disappear.
When she'd finished the paper, we packed our bags and went down to Malmö, to continue the celebration of mom's non-birthday. Just kidding! To see Bosse and Signe, of course! Bosse was a lot bigger than when I last saw him. We even played with cars together!
And Signe is always big. 
But we totally did continue the celebration of mom as well! Cake and singing and all! And almost the whole family present! We missed Petra, though, who was generous enough to keep her flu to herself, and dad, who was already back in Warsaw.
See how coordinated we are in our clothing, Antonia and I? Thank you, Lisa, who is and apparently always has been a fantastic clothes-shopper! We're so showing off in Warsaw now. Happily accepting all the justified admiration our looks generate.
'Cos we are back in Warsaw now, you see! Going there was the last thing we did that day. And we were received with hugs, kisses and tulips. 
Phew! Long day, and lovely! We should do it again soon! Ha! And we will! 'Cos as opposed to my birthdays, mom's seem to come very frequently.
And the cows really were as big as ever. And as interested in the camera!
Knowing that she may have been too young to really appreciate the environments when we last were here, I took Antonia for little walks of the Grönhögen neighborhood. 
It's just that the stroller sometimes rolls the wrong way, and then it pretty hard to get back on track. 
So I got some parental help with the sightseeing. 
And some parental company in my own little strolls down to the sea and over to the playground. 
Back indoors, Antonia and I did our best to show our appreciation for the floors that mom, dad and I sanded and painted the summer before last. Ok, maybe dad should have a bit more cred than mom and I, at least for the sanding part of the job. Not that standby supporters are not important... Anyway, the floors are great for play!
Actually, Öland seems to be a good place in genereal for play and contemplation. Good thing we will be back!
But when we were there, we didn't see much at all. I didn't see much as I was sound asleep. 
Mom and dad didn't see much, as they had to squint to keep the horizontally flying snow from getting into their eyes.
(Mom just smiles because of the camera. She's such a fake!)
And poor Antonia was completely preoccupied with trying to breath, so she definitely didn't see a thing. You see, she's still not very good at the in and exhaling when the wind is too brisk. 
In other words, we didn't mind getting back in the car after having spent a few minutes in old town. 
And no, we also didn't mind getting back to our nice hotel room with the big comfy bed.
Where we could play without freezing our hands and noses off!
