New chair

As Momo-chan is growing they got this new chair for him. He seems to like it. They weighed him and now he is 11,3 kg.

Is this new way of communicating?  They did it many times and Pinga thought it's very sweet.

Little visitors

Bird watching

Momo-chan likes birds and is quite good at spotting them. On the way home from day care he saw some cute small birds so he went to look at them closely but they were quick to fly away.

A new princess was born today

The Swedish air to the throne, Victoria, gave birth to a baby girl today so Swedish flags were raised all around.

Strong wind!

The wind was really strong yesterday night and when Pingu and Pinga woke up they noticed that the part covering the big marquee was broken and resting on the ground. Glad nobody got hurt.

Brush time

Momo-chan's hair is sometimes a bit fluffy and needs combing. Momo-chan thought the brush was interesting so he tried it out himself.

Waiting for Pinga at Entré

Pinga loves to shop so Pingu and Momo-chan was walking around the shopping mall called Entré. Momo-chan enjoyed this red chair and climbed into it whenever it was not occupied.

Crayon Shin-chan

The Swedish Japanese society together with other partners showed the Japanese anime Crayon Shin-chan at Inkonst in Malmö. Momo-chan was there with Pingu and Pinga and watched it. Momo-chan was enjoying it and was quiet all through the movie.

Totoro blanket

Momo-chan loves Totoro, both to watch and also to play with. Here he is admiring the nice Totoro blanket which he has as cover at night.

Sony Ericsson is now Sony

This is the view from Pingu's office. The sign to the left used to have the letters Sony Ericsson on it. Since Sony Ericsson is now fully owned by Sony the sign is being changed. The sign has not been uncovered yet though.

Bath time

Momo-chan was singing and taking bath. He talks more and more these days. He said Babaskön for the first time at dinner today. Pinga was talking to Pingu about bathing me the other day. Scary! It was long time ago Pingu bathed me and I didn't like it. Please do not try to bathe me again...

8 month old baby

The neighbors that invited us has a eight month old daughter. Her dad said that SE started to crawl backward. Momo-chan became much bigger that when he did that. I was surprised when he woke up and pet me this morning. I didn't run away for the first time.

Morning play date at neighbors

They were invited to our neighbors house for an apple pie. Very nice! There were one more family who has these kids.

Chai latte at work

Pinga hasn't bought chai latte for a while as they have changed it from syrup to powder and the powder one didn't taste as good. But she found out today that they have changed back to the syrup one! Very nice.

Riding a sledge

It was almost 5 pm and there was a beautiful orange sky.

Go back home with a sledge

When Pinga came to pick Momo-chan up, he didn't want to go back home. Pinga went to get him together with a sledge.

Momo-chan in a cap

Momo-chan was at Pingu and Pinga's friend while they were at dinner yesterday. Afterwards they sat and talked a while. Pingu tried on this cap on Momo-chan and he did not mind. It was more difficult to make him stand still so he could take this photo.

Valentine's day dinner at M.E.A.T

Pingu surprised Pinga with a nice dinner at a restaurant in town. Restaurant's name is M.E.A.T and of course, they serve great meat dishes. Pinga thought the service is great as well. Here are crab cakes that Pinga ordered as an appetizer.

First time eating eel

Momo-chan enjoyed unagi don as well. He seemed to like the sauce to it too.

Unagi don うなぎ丼 = rice bowl with eel

Pinga and Momo-chan enjoyed this eel with rice for lunch. It was delivered from Japan and very tasty.

Some more footsteps

They found some more of my footsteps. As you can see, it was cold but sunny.

My footsteps in the snow

Momo-chan and Pinga found my footsteps in the snow. Yes, I was out abd checking things out around the house.

By the window

When it's cold outside but sunny, it's best to stay inside and enjoy the sun.

Removing snow

Momo-chan was out helping (or watching) Pinga removing snow. It was minus 4C degrees and cold...

Totoro

Momo-chan and he watched a short video clip of "My neighbour Totoro" and he came to like it too. He didn't want to let this Totoro go.

Communicating?

This girl is only 8 and a half months old but she can crowl and walk with the help of furniture. Here she is talking to Momo-chan. They said ti each other "Ahhhhhhh!" several times.

Momo-chan's friends

Momo-chan's friends came for afternoon tea today. They were quite active today as well. Here they are having wafer kind of cookies.

Momo-chan the snow angel

Momo-chan made his first snow angel today. Actually it was Pingu that moves Momo-chan's arms and legs but still. Nice imprint in the snow. Pinga didn't know about snow angels so she watched with great curiosity. As for me, I was resting inside. My paws are sensitive to the cold and snow is strange to walk on so I prefer to stay inside.

Broken broom

Pingu was clearing the driveway and sidewalk from snow with the help of Momo-chan today. He used the broom as well and it became a bit too much for it so now it broken.

Dashing in the snow...

Like the Jingle Bells tune Momo-chan was riding his sledge today in the snow. It was snowing quite a lot (it is actually still snowing) so perfect for a bit of a ride on the sledge.

Jane Fonda Momo-chan

After playing with the vacuum cleaner Momo-chan did some workout type moves on the carpet. Is it a Jane Fonda workout Momo-chan?

Vacuum cleaning by Momo-chan

Momo-chan helped Pingu with vacuum cleaning. Usually he mimics Pingu but this time he started moving the actual vacuum cleaner around. Scary! I hate the vacuum cleaner and I am scared of Momo-chan so this combination is making me very stressed.

Do you want me to eat that?

Momo-chan is mostly hungry and eats well but at the moment he has throat pain so it is not so pleasant to swallow food. Momo-chan looks a bit hesitant in this photo don't you think?

Semlor!

Pingu's colleagues have Friday coffee where one colleague brings cake or cookies. This time the colleague in charge brought this cute small semlor. They were very tasty and Pingu wished there could have been an extra one so he could bring it home to Pinga.

Front 242 concert

Pingu went to a concert yesterday evening with a friend. It was Front 242 coming to play live in Malmö. Pingu went to see them three years ago at a packed club but this time it was quite a lot less people but still fun.

Do you give up Pingu?

Momo-chan was playing with Pingu the stuffed animal. Momo-chan was sitting on him and it seems like Pingu is not so comfortable.

Momo-chan in his new overall

Pingu and Momo-chan was home together since Momo-chan was sick. It had snowed on Thursday morning so they went out to remove the snow. Momo-chan was happy to help wearing a new overall.

Pingu short business trip

Pingu went to Cambridge, UK for just 24 hours. There was no real photo opportunity there so all he managed to take was this photo before leaving from Copenhagen airport. Pinga got some shortbread cookies so she was happy.

Icy canal

Pinga was in Malmö for a chiropractic treatment. It was minus 4C degrees and the canal was totally frozen.
