Fredrik's "dinner-date."

Fredrik is at his "dinner-date" with a workmate, Niklas. :)
I think.. I have a picture here somewhere...












That is Niklas.
Fredrik started out working with him, when he first started with Skanska. Niklas has his own measuring company and is privately hired by Skanska. Niklas has been working on the train platform in Gnesta, etc.. And rings Fredrik when he needs help getting stuff done. So, they have a lot in common and get along well. :)
And he also has the same movie taste as me.. ;) (Bad, old horror movies.) (So, he can't be too bad of a guy.) :)) So he borrows tons of movies from us.

Maybe not that interesting, but I have some time to waste.. :P

I will be spending the day with Fredrik tomorrow. The ultrasound appointment is at 9 in the morning, and I would have to take the 07.00 bus to get into town (closest bus to 9) and I would have to sit and wait at the bus stop for 1½ hours... so, I might as well go with Fredrik at 06.30 and then I can sit at the office with him. And then I will spend the day with him until I need to take my computer test. It was Fredrik's idea, and I am very grateful. :) I'm not sure I could sit at the school for 12 hours without going completely insane. :/ :))

Today there was a ½ off sale at one of the Brio stores in town. And we were hoping to grab some things, if anything .. and I would have gone with Fredrik today, but I had my CPR thing right when the store opened.

Fredrik went past the store ½ an hour before it opened, and he said there were 100-150 people standing in a line to get into the store...! WoW!
And he kept going by the rest of the day, and there was always a line outside the door to get in. So, he gave up. :/ :)
So, we might try to go by tomorrow, and see if anything is left in the store. :/ :)

But here are the changing table and crib that we want to get:



They are Brio brand and Fredrik is completely obsessed with the changing table. :/ :)) And we really like the set together. So, right now, that is our goal to buy. :)

Fredrik brought me kebab home for dinner. Was very yummy. :)) Have to fatten the baby up for our appointment tomorrow. ;)

There is a "Spanish" woman that I've gotten to become very good friends with. (We call her "the Spanish-woman" because saying "The woman from Uruguay" just takes too long.) :) She is in her 50's, but she has been more like a grandmother-type for me for the past year. And she is so sweet and wonderful and I love talking with her.
She used to be in my Swedish class, until she quit. And then she ended up being in my medicine class. So, she was there today for the CPR training. And I was so happy to see her..
(Don't worry.. I AM building up to something here..) ;)
But when she saw me today, she gave me a hug, asked how the baby was doing, looked me up and down and said that I have lost a lot of weight. (Since I saw her last, which was maybe 1-2 months ago.) She asked me if I was eating.. :/ :)) And I told her that I eat all the time, whatever I want. So, I suppose my body is just doing what it wants. (I don't care, as long as the baby is getting its nutrients and is growing.) Fredrik has the theory that my weight is going down but also shifting to areas that mommy's need it to be (hips, breasts, etc..)

Blah, blah, blah.. :P

Hmmm..
A bit anxious for our appointment tomorrow. :)
So I have an average of how much in length the baby should have grown, and I'll be holding my breath until the technician gives us some info.

I talked to Fredrik around 14.00 today and layed down on the couch and fell asleep and didn't wake up until 16.40. So, I had a nice long nap, which I need to get better into the habit of doing.

Now I will rest a little and finish watching the Swedish-US icehockey match. (Heja Sverige!!)
And see how Fredrik's dinner went. :)
