EIJLA IS 2! HIPP HIPP HURRA!

 today our baby girl turned two!  can hardly believe it.  she has become such a little girl, talking so much, running around like a crazy monkey.  she has even started with 3 to 4 word sentences.  it is going too fast.  but then i think almost all parents feel that at this stage.  so our little princess got up an the first thing she did was put on her princess dress.  open her presents, and then it was birthday hugs all around.

 when it is your birthday your breakfast is allowed to consist of licking nouget off of a toast..
 after singing, presents, and breakfast we headed to periyar wildlife park,  where we went on a boat ride, that well, honestly was a bit of a disappointment, though we did see a bison, a couple of fox, and a few birds.
 the tired birthday girl fell asleep standing up in the car.  stubborn monkey refused to sit on my lap.
 then in the afternoon we went on a spice garden tour,  where we saw lots of plants and flowers and coffee beans.
 but the highlight was definitely finding out the cafe had korv!  the girls ate 8 of them together!  only second time this trip we have found korv. yum!
then it was what might just become a tradition, elephant riding on eijla´s birthday.  farmor waited back at the elephant camp due to the seats not being knee friendly, but the rest of piled on a couple of pachyderms and headed out.


 we were there at the very end of the day, so the girls got watch while the put away the elephants for the evening.
 then it was dinner, the girls has pasta, and then back to the hotel for cake!  happy birthday our dear little eijla!  hope you had a wonderful day.  we loved spending it with you, and look forward to many more!  we love you, you crazy little monkey.

En sån fantastisk födelsedag vi hade tillsammans med dig Eijla!
Roligt med elefanterna, spicegarden, båttrippen i nationalparken och en god tårta på kvällen
