12 weeks

Igar blev Thor 12 veckor gammal! Wow, tiden springer ivag. Han utvecklas massor varje dag, vaxer och visar mer och mer vem han kommer att bli som vuxen. Han ar sa underbar var lille prins. 

 Nar vi forst sag bild pa Thor (da vid namn “Duncan”) var han nastan 8 veckor gammal och vi blev kara pa en gang. Vi fick kontakt med breeder och det kandes for bra for att vara sant. Jag dromde om honom pa natterna och det kandes sa ratt. Daremot gjorde jag ju massor av research, ville ju inte att det skulle visa sig vara en scam, for aven om jag vill tro gott om manniskor sa finns det skit i varlden, tyvarr. Men, vi fick god kontakt, pratade med referenser, fick supergulliga bilder och videos pa mejlen och snart var vi sakra igen. Thor skulle komma hem till oss och bli var nya familjemedlem. Nar Jim hamtade honom i Chicago och skickade forsta bilden pa honom och nar vi sen skypade innan hans flyg, da satt jag bara och grat av lycka. Tarar rann ner for kidnerna och jag bara skrattade. Var kille skulle snart vara hemma. 

Yesterday, Thor turned 12 weeks old! Wow, time flies! He’s developing a lot every day, grows and shows more and more of who he will become as an adult. He is so wonderful, our little prince. 
When we first saw pictures of Thor (then by name “Duncan”) he was almost 8 weeks old and we fell in love immediately. We came in contact with the breeder and it felt too good to be true. I was dreaming about him at night and it felt so right. But, I did tons of research, didn’t want it to turn out to be a scam, cause even if I want to think good about people there is still a lot of shit in the world, unfortunately. But, we got great contact, talked to references, got super cute pictures and videos on our emails and soon we were sure again. Thor would come home to us and become our new family member. When Jim picked him up in Chicago and sent the first picture of him and when we later skype’d before his flight, I was just at home crying of happiness. Tears were falling down my cheeks and I was just laughing. Our boy would soon be home.

Bath

Igar tvattade vi alla leksaker, Thor’s sang och vara lakan och handdukar. Sen badade lille Thor med. Veterinaren sa att T och hans omgivning behovde tvattas den sista dagen av hans medicin. Forst gick det bra, han var lite nyfiken. Men sen blev han valdigt radd. Det tog ett tag av pussar, kramar och lite godis for att fa honom att lugna ner sig och snart var han full av energi och sprang runt och lekte och gav tillbaka pussar och kramar. Han har varit lite radd for badrummet sen han kom hit och vi har gradvis forsokt visa honom att det inte ar farligt att vara dar inne. Nasta bad gar forhoppningsvis lite battre. Han kommer ju att vanja sig.
Nar jag gjorde iordning pa hans saker och aven tog en dusch, lyckades Jim att bade borsta/kamma T’s pals (vilket kan va en utmaning) och borsta tanderna pa honom (vilket han gillar). Nu ar Thor super len och fluffig. 

Yesterday we washed all toys, Thor’s bed and our sheets and towels. Then little Thor got a bath too. The vet told us that T and his environment needed to be cleaned on the last day of his medicine. First it went well, he was curious. But then he got very scared. It took awhile of giving kisses, hugs and some treats to get him to calm down and soon he was full of energy and ran around playing and gave back kisses and hugs. He has been a little afraid of the bathroom since he got here so we have gradually tried to show him that there is no danger in there. Next bath will hopefully go better. He will get used to it.  
When I took care of his stuff and also took a shower, Jim succeeded to both brush/comb T’s coat (which can be a challenge) and brushed his teeth (which he likes). Now, Thor is super smooth and fluffy.

Munchkins

IMG_1009_2IMG_0998_2

Det borde vara helg lite oftare:) Tva dagar i rad har killarna kommit hem med kaffe till mig nar jag vaknar. Idag blev det aven en sockerkick med munchkins till frukost. Lillen har nu somnat efter bade sin frukost med medicin och nagon timme av lek. Mysig sondag morgon helt enkelt.
Idag ska jag forsoka dammsuga har hemma. Det ar dammigt och vi alla tre nyser. Maste ju introducera dammsugaren for Thor ocksa. Diskmaskin, hartork, aska, lastbilar och fyrverkerier fungerar bra, sa dammsugare borde va ok.
T ska aven fa ova pa att sitta pa kommando idag. Han har klarat det ett par ganger, mest av en slump men det ar ju sa man borjar lara sig. Han forstar nu mer och mer var “fetch” ar, vilket ar kul, det gick ratt snabbt. Men sitta ar svarare da han blir sa till sig av lukten av godis. 

It should be weekend more often:) Two days in a row, the guys have brought home coffee to me when I wake up. Today we also had a sugar rush from munchkins for breakfast. The little one has now fallen to sleep after both breakfast with medicine and some hour of playtime. Cozy Sunday for sure. 
Today I will try to vacuum our home. Its dusty and all three of us are sneezing. Have to introduce the vacuum cleaner for Thor too. Dishwasher, hairdryer, thunder, trucks and fireworks are working just fine, so a vacuum should be ok. 
T will also work on sit by command today. He has done it a couple of times before, mostly by chance but that’s how you start to learn. He understands more and more what “fetch” is, which is fun, it came quickly. But to sit is harder cause he get so excited from the smell of treats.

Saturday morning fun

IMG_0929_2IMG_0930_2IMG_0935_2IMG_0939_2IMG_0938_2Thor ar jatteduktig pa att springa under och hoppa over. En kul lek jag tog inspiration fran Emma. Och sen vila lite mellan varven:)
Thor is doing great with running under and jumping over. A fun game I took inspiration from Emma. And then rest a little in between:)

Idag fick jag sova hela natten fram till 7am. Jim tog hand om Thor efter att han vaknat ganska tidigt. Nar de gick ut en andra gang passade jag pa att duscha, so nice! De kom tillbaka med kaffe till mig (tack mina alskade killar). Thor ar ju en liten mammas kille nu, sa han blir helt till sig nar jag sager god morgon efter att Jim tagit ut honom (alltid J som tar forsta morgon potty), och sen lamnar han inte mig, haha.
Vi lekte en stund och nu har han somnat. Da passar jag pa att uppdatera har:) 

Today I got to sleep all night until 7am. Jim took care of Thor after waking up pretty early. When they went out a second time, I took the opportunity to shower, so nice! They came back with coffee for me (thank you my dear boys). Thor is a little momma’s boy now, so he gets so excited every time I say good morning after Jim has been out with him (always J that takes the first potty), and then he won’t leave me, haha. 
We played for a while and now he’s asleep. Then I take the time to update here:)
