iiamo Down Under

The iiamo-life-after-birth-fication of one of the greatest countries in the world has now officially started. That’s right – the land of Foster’s Beer, kangaroos, fantastic beaches, even better waves, where Utzon’s magical design daily shines and where our crown princess Mary was born. Australia, the big Down Under. We have just been on Mornings with Kerri-Anne and Rasmus is now talking to anybody who wants to listen at the baby fare in Melbourne so if you are in the proximity of Melbourne please swing by and give him a hug. Know he would greatly appreciate it.

If you are looking for more information about iiamo in Australia please contact nikolaj@iiamo.com or rasmus@iiamo.com or of course our Aussie playmates at www.4gl.com.au

iiamo love,

Nikolaj

FDA chuck a U-ie on BPA

FDA has now announced (http://www.hhs.gov/safety/bpa/) that they now share the same concern as most parents and the National Toxicology Program for the impact of BPA on human development and will continue to work with that agency to better clarify these effects by conducting more research. They state this research will take place over the next 18-24 months. In the interim they support the removal of BPA from baby bottles and cups and support those companies that have already removed BPA from their formula packaging. However, they did not go so far as to tell the public that they should be avoiding BPA or that they should switch to BPA-free baby bottles or infant formula.

More research is always a good idea but there comes a time when we know enough to act and that time has come for BPA.

Mr. Lover-lover

Da jeg var gravid med Kasper, snakkede Thure og jeg meget om, hvordan han mon blev. Hvordan var hans lille personlighed, og hvem af os ville han komme til at minde om?

Nu har vi haft ham i næsten tre år og én ting, som er Kaspers helt egen personlighed. Det er hans evne til at dele sin kærlighed. Med hele verden. Han deler rundhåndet ud af den og giver gerne et kram til alle dem, der gæster os. Også selvom de kun har kendt hinanden i tre minutter.

I søndags skulle vi i Tivoli, for han sagde, at nu turde han godt. Nuvel. Men inden vi gik ville han godt lige tegne en tegning til Tivoli-manden. Altså ham, der ejer Tivoli. I Kaspers verden kan det kun være én mand. Han tegnede en fin stor cirkel med nogle dingenoter. Det var en bjørn.

Vi drog afsted mod Nisseland i Tivoli, men det havde resten af København også gjort. Det vil sige, at køen nærmest løb hele vejen fra indgangen til Amager. Vi droppede det og kørte ned på tanken for at se på bilvasken. Noget som en Kaspers helt store passion. Pludselig siger han: ’Men hvad så med min tegning mor?’ ’Tjaa, siger jeg, vil du give den til en anden?’ ’Ja det vil jeg. Til tankmanden’.

Og i dag var tankmanden så altså bare en teenager med munden fuld af togskinner. Ind troppede Kasper og smed tegningen på bordet sammen med sin is.

Kasper: ’Den er til dig’

Tankdame (meget rød i hovedet over kærlighedserklæringen): ’neeeeei tak, sikke en fin ballon du har tegnet.’

Kasper: ’Det’ en bjørn’.

Tankdame (omend mere rød i hovedet): ’nårhja, det kan jeg da godt se’, hvorefter hun kigger på mig, som om hun vil spørge om det er okay at lyve overfor børn.

Hun blev så befippet over tegningen, at hun nærmest var ved at gi’ mig en pakke tyggegummi gratis, så jeg er sikker på, at Kasper en eller anden dag bliver en fantastisk kæreste. De skal muligvis ikke holde i hånd i ballongyngerne i Tivoli, men masser af kærlighed. Det får hun.

Om bloggeren: Annamette er 35 år, og mor til Kasper på knap 3 år og Jeppe på 3 mdr. Forfatter til bogen Min Mor.

Food advice from kids

After eating home made pizza all Sunday (like from 09 a.m. to 11 p.m.) I just read some food advice from kids this morning, incl.:

Salad. It’s too crunchy how my mom makes it. It should have chocolate chips.

Go for the chocolate chips. Go to it, go to the mattresses. Go off your rocker. Go away from everything starting with a “should”, go work on what you wish you dared to. Go from pillar to post. Go designing, go dancing, go to the greengrocer’s and back. Bring your baby. Or don’t.
