Happy Halloween

Been completely absent.
Getting my life sorted here in Sweden and its going quite well too. Part-time job at Smögens Havsbad and various freelance projects on the go, two cars (volvo's of course) a lovely home on the 8th floor and a fantastic house-husband who has dinner on the table when I get home. And a network of baby sitter's! so it looks like we're getting some adult life after all. WoHo! I will try and keep my posts more regular now. Must admit I am missing London a bit....everyone is so rude here, or should I say everyone is so very polite in England. There just doesn't seem to be a word for Sorry over here..

Becoming a swedish citizen again

I am sooo glad Erik, or It, as Mina calls him was around today to help out while I spent all day becoming a swedish citizen again. According to Skatteverket I only immigrated to England in 2001 which means I have only lived abroad for 8yrs not 12 as I have been telling people.
Its so easy being out with a child here - everywhere has a kids corner or buggy access ramps, lifts or buttons that opens the door for you! I could have done this on my own (but I am so glad I didn't). Thank you Erik, you've been a star. Beers are on me. After the 6th of course ;-)

Sweden here we come...aaarrrhhh

A little earlier than planned but what's the point point hanging around.....appart from all good friends of course - I will miss you all so much! But hopefully this is the right move and we will still be able to come over to London regularly and actually enjoy it.

Me and Mina on the plane waiting for take off. Mina has been so excited about going to fly up in the sky like Winnie (the witch).

 
A very satisfied customer who thought the clouds were snow....not far off tho.

Reigate

A trip to the country side and a friends house in Surrey. Mina absolutely adored Jimi's trampoline - it was massive, it wouldn't even fit in out garden!

Pictures of the day

I had to drag her off the trampoline and as soon as I let go of her she was back bouncing....

What are they wearing - hard to believe that their mothers have a fashion degree...

Snälla Laban...

Mina's favorite TV moment at the moment is her Laban DVD and she is so cute when she copies Pappa Spöke....

Fionashendo

I love this title, it sounds so japanese...but its not, its purple. Paul you did a brilliant job of getting all us crazy ladies into one place almost at the same time.  And the website was just awesome! Still no one seemed to understand the content as we all kept asking you questions...
