Leave the affected child behind with a friend/relative and continue your holiday as planned?
No point you all losing out!
Joking aside, as others have alluded, there's no immediate way around this given there's not enough time to secure a new passport on a weekend and on the holidays before you fly. Norway won't grant entry with anything less than 3 months validity remaining on entry and BA won't allow the child to board to test whether that's true or not.
I guess this is going to be one to put down to experience.
I assume you've already tried contacting the US Embassy for an emergency appointment to get said document issued?
If they can do something on Tuesday perhaps one adult and the affected child can rebook to Wednesday and get something of a holiday before you all return together?
