Something new on Christmas Day

As Jakob was sleeping so well in Katrin’s bed Kerstin decided to not transfer home but spend the night at the Meierei and thus giving Markus the opportunity to recover during the night. In the morning though he decided to go and see a doctor as his coughing still hurt a lot and so he spent 1 hour with 10 other patients in the waiting room. Markus has been diagnosed with a throat infection and he got some medicine prescribed which relieved him from the pain. In the meantime Jakob had his second carrot meal and it got very obvious that he likes this kind of food. We also got a very clear signal from his digestive system in the form of a decently filled diaper telling us that he is ok with the nutrition change Once Markus was back from the doctor he set off soon for the Meierei again Heidi, Jakob and Kerstin for the usual lunch on Christmas day.

"With these cards we have to win!!!"

The afternoon brought a few premieres again for Jakob: Firstly he teamed up with grandma Heidi and played his first Jass game. The result was by far less important and interesting for our little Buddha than the faces and pictures on the cards but we are positive that in the coming years this preferences will shift. Later in the afternoon Kerstin’s dad Eugen visited us and grandpa not only had another present – self-made wood bricks and a new outfit – for Jakob but also had the first session of football practice with our junior. Jakob rounded the fitness afternoon up with a few successful attempts to sit up from underneath his green trapezoid toy. Not surprisingly after such an active and exciting day, Jakob fell asleep fast and allowed us some more time to chat with chat with Eugen.
