Back home

So we are back in Sweden after our 2 week England trip.  Apart from our flight home being cancelled, delaying us for a day, everything went pretty smooth.  The flight home was more challenging than the flight there and we will always try and go for a morning flight in future.  My Mum and Dad flew back with us, so I was thinking two adults, three babies, piece of cake!  Little did I know that my Dad wouldn't be allowed to sit with us. BA had allocated us on a row with only 4 oxygen masks and because the flight was full, my Dad got moved up to first class!  So as me and my Mum are trying to amuse two very tired and fussy babies, my Dad got a taste of the the high life.  The only consolation was the coffee that got spilled on him and three bottles of champagne he got as compensation that he gave to me :)  I am glad he got something good, I just wish my Mum had also got a piece of it.  What she got instead was baby Emilia who kept being sick!

My Mum and Dad had really pulled out all the stops for their granddaughters.  Their rooms were beautiful and they had lots of toys from the local car boot to keep them amused.  It was really lovely for me to see how they must have been with me and Toni when we were babies and the whole experience has given me more confidence to be as good of a Mum as I can be.  Baby Eva has been pretty clingy during our stay and most nights she has woken up and needed to sleep the rest of the night with me.  Meaning I couldn't be there for Emilia but my Mum tended to every cry.  There was one night when we were all up at 2 in the morning:

But for the most parts the nights have been pretty calm.  Both of the twins are teething like crazy (Emilia finally cut her second front one when we got home) but as always they are little troopers just getting on with things.

My friend Caroline came for a visit with baby Charlie.  It was so nice to be able to talk about everything with a close friend that has been through something similar.  Baby Charlie spent 2 weeks in intensive care, but now he is doing great and enjoyed meeting his new mini friends!

Here are a few more pictures from our trip:
