I've got 2 Stockholm trips coming up. The first one is in about 2 weeks. I'll be there from Aug 26- 29. I'm supposed to run Tjejmilen. I'll have to walk it instead. A month ago I got the cough from hell. I wasn't exactly sick but I had this dry cough that would not go away. In fact, I still have it. I have been a lot better in the last week ( Read more... )

Having a great time. Wish you were here :)

It's Mother's Day in Sweden. I'm at my MIL's for the weekend. The weather this morning looked promising. It was about 20C+ in the sun. But the clouds rolled in and we've been getting passing showers all morning. I guess barbequing is out :( On the bright side, we're going to Källan, a health spa in a neighboring town for a Mother's Day buffet ( Read more... )

My mom arrived in Skellefteå today! :D As expected, she's just absolutely in love with Edwin. She pretty much held him the whole afternoon and evening. Oh yeah... now I've got some Kraft mac and cheese, ranch dressing, and chocolate covered macadamia nuts. Yum!

After reading about how delicious Beverly's semlor turned out, I had to see for myself. I'm not as good as Beverly is when it comes to baking so it might be part of the reason they didn't ( Read more... )

My MIL has been hinting to us to send out thank you cards to people who gave Edwin presents after he was born. I know... he's almost 3 months and we haven't done that yet :( I ordered some thank you cards today with this picture on it:

I started writing an entry several times this week but each time, I was interupted before I finished. So I guess I'll keep this entry short so I'll actually be able to finish for once. LOL :D ( Read more... )

Johanna, Beverly, Helena, Melanie, and I were sitting around Wayne's (it's a cafe for those of you not in Sweden) today and I noticed that I was just shamelessly bragging about Edwin. I've become one of those people who go around whipping out their wallets (or in my case, the cell phone) showing people pictures of their kid. I can't help it. I'm ( Read more... )

I don't have anything interesting to write about but I have a new picture of my little guy! :)
