Hmm, reliable? Depends on what you mean by that. Mine are constantly stealing my car keys ( luckely only the ones of the cars I don't use), and like to drive over my feet with their shopping carts and three-wheelers. I'm also wondering if my oldest one is normal: she has found a favourite disney-movie in "Cars"... My wife tries to make her watch Beauty and the beast or other "girlie" things, but she has posters of Lightning Mcqueen all over her room.
Don't even want to think about when they are 20...

Well guys, I just read Henri Pescarolo learned himself how to drive at the age of 9 (!) and drove his father home for a 500km distance (non-stop) at the age of 13. I guess we really NEED to hide those keys. But then again, who wouldn't want his kid to become a new Pescarolo???

Well.... he's ONE year old !!

No he did not get a RC car, no rotary.. but some toycars and lots of other stuff.

He did get his very own cake and sure did a mess of it!

I just told my boss that I'll stay home two months in the beginning of next year.. feels good.
Work is a real mess at the moment.. way to much to do....

Haven't been on the forum too much lately, so happy birthday for your kid Magnus, even if I'm a bit late.
How can you just "tell your boss you"ll stay home for two months"???? Must try that! Well, I'll probable have to tell mine I'm not coming back at all, wonder how he'll react to that...

The system here works like this.
In total you get 480 days with 80% of your normal salary.
90 of those days are for the father. More days can be moved from the mother to the father if you like.

So Lena will start working so I can stay home with Isak feb-march.

Maybe you should move here??

Oh, that's a strange system. Overhere I can get 3 months off, but only with about 500-something euro/month. So obviously, that's not very attractive for me. My wife did take those 3 months off, but you can't shift the father's 3 months to the mother.
Moving over to Sweden... hm, sounds nice, but are there any jobs for me there? Anyway, I was in the UK on thursday, and it looks like that'll be my new home-country from next year on, so I guess Sweden is not an option right now.

And so the youngest became 1 year old yesterday!
Time sure flies!
My wife has started to study so I'll be home with the boys until after Christmas.

Here are some photos from the party!

We do not spend enough time on Rx7club ....
If you were late.. well...

All is still well but three kids can be a pain in the.....
There is NO time for anything.

I have three rotaries and three boys.. I'm done!
