So we turned 30 yesterday. This is just a random picture showing how Crazy it can get in the Erikson household when milestones as such are reached.

New Pictures

One of the boy and one of the cat. I really like my new "vintage photo" app.

You've Got Mail!

The son got a care pack from the grandparents yesterday. He seemed to appreciate the over sized envelope and the DVDs the most. The pictures below are a bit blurry, but that is what you get with an eight-month-old who refuses to sit still.

Wicked awesome with your own films.

Off to show the cat.

...Who didn't seem too interested.

Reading Partner

This was my night yesterday; trying to read while neglecting the obvious calls for attention from Mustard.

Taking it Easy

... And here I have got some help in the relaxation department.

New Pictures of Mr Mustard

Cat Nap

Here is a pic of the wife and Mustard taking a nap in front of the telly.

Cats and Calories

Dinner: Pancakes with ice cream, maple syrup and beer.

And Mr Mustard

Tin Man

This is what I had for dinner tonight. Don't be fooled, that ravioli was meant to feed a whole family and that was an "Australia sized" beer can, biggest one I've ever seen.

And Then We Rest

Another "Cat in a Box shoot"

While the wife is working the graveyard shift me and Mustard cause mayhem...

Saffron & Mustard

Some new pics; myself showing the yanks how to celebrate st. Lucia and Mr. Mustard making sure no one else can use the couch.

Outrageous

For some unexplained reason PBS said 'bollocks to tradition' tonight and is airing Celtic Woman Live at Powerscourt. It, of course, could have been worse: I enjoy Irish singing and fiddling as much as the next man and I have very fond memories from Powerscourt myself. It is a beautiful estate and a stone throw away from Ireland's highest waterfall!
Here are some pictures to make sure everybody is updated with what goes on in Casa de Erikson:

Myself flipping through a year old Newsweek

The wife preparing her Thanksgiving stuffing

Mr. Mustard enjoying having the whole of the sofa for himself

Cats and casks

Some pictures of things that makes life a little more fun:

Mustard getting himself tangled up in fresh laundry

In America Bulmers Cider go by the name of Magners. It is confusing because there already is a Magners back in the Old Country (very popular in Northern Ireland). The ales on the sides are awesome!

Breakfast For Dinner

Came home full of energy, planning to hit the old private gym. I soon realised that doing so I would tire myself out and fall asleep shortly afterwards and miss FlashForward again. So I made some waffles instead. Below is me taking out the crap from Mustard's litter box.

Cat in the Kitchen

Time for some more cat pics. some things just never gets old, like mustard hanging out in the kitchen sink only waiting for someone to turn on the water. He is also pretty cool just posing.

Backyard Baby

Today the semi stray terrier that has been roaming our backyard decided to bring her puppy. It is a sweet little thing, although he could do with some grooming.

Mr Mustard was not happy to share the attention.

Building A Home

Some "up to date" pictures from The Eriksons:

Me assembling the new IKEA bookshelf

Mr. Mustard Helping out in his own way

Generic IKEA "Kolasnören"

Mr. striking a pose in front of the new furniture

Mustard & Water

Mr. Mustard having a drink/shower. You don't see that every day. Well - I do, but I bet you don't.
