Balloons

Or maybe I should rather say duloons, as Samuel calls them. Magnus doesn't call them anything, but he seem to be working on the word "no".

I would rather have him say balloon though.

Magnus can also say "hov" which means "Oops" and "se" for "see". Yup, he is talented. No walking though, but everyonce in a while he will do a lion roar. Awesome stuff!

But back to the balloons.

We love balloons at our house and whenever I see any new kinds I buy them. A while ago I bought some big balloons which was a huge hit in the house.

He may not look excited, but he is. Deep down inside, he really is.

And then recently I bought some giant balloons. You know how the title can dissapoint at times. Like giant balloons being less than giant?

That was not the case here.

I nearly passed out after blowing it up.

I got pretty darn dizzy.

 But the kids were ecstatic! And truth be told so was I.

It was one of the funniest things we'd done in quite a while. We played with it for a long time, nearly knocking over a few items plus a little boy. Unfortunately someone - maybe me - got too carried away and suddenly it exploded.

Apart from someone - maybe me - screaming, everyone else took it very calmly. Samuels biggest concern was what to play with now.

Blowing up another giant balloons was out of the question for me. I was recovering from the first balloon.

Instead their dad kindly offered to blow up two regular sized balloons for them, in blue even.

It's just not the same, not the same at all!


I have 7 more. I just need to find a pump for them.
