Last fall we remodeled our guest room, so that Freya could move in. She is still very excited about her new room and loves to play with her dolls in there, paint, play with play-doh or read.
I haven't been good at updating the blog in the last couple of months. It just isn't enough hours in the day to do everything I would like to do...
Oscar is already 8 months and Freya is turning 3 years in May. Oscar is crawling and loves to stand up while he is holding on to something. He might be an early walker...

Freya loves her little baby brother and always want to hold him and hug him. Sometimes she's a little too intense for Oscar... :-)
Freya loves the Zoo so the whole family when to "Boo at the Zoo" last Saturday on Halloween. Freya had a lot of fun with her little friend Kat, while Oscar slept almost the whole time. :-)
Time flies...our little boy is already 1 month old.
Älskade mamma....om du visste hur mycket jag saknar dig. I dag den 13e Augusti skulle du ha fyllt 65 år. Du gick bort så hastigt för snart 6 år sedan och fick aldrig upleva din 60 årsdag, mitt bröllop eller träffa dina barnbarn. Vilket oerhört tomrum du lämnade efter dig...men det är skönt att veta att du slipper smärta, sjukdom och oro mer.
Jag har suttit och tittat på foton, så många minnen...
Saknar dig.

Our backyard is almost done and we are enjoying it every day! After our garage was built last summer we started planning and working on our backyard. We tore out the old useless back porch. We dug trenches for an irrigation system. We built a deck, planted grass and flowers, and finally updated our furniture for our new outdoor space.
Part of the reason we love to live down-town is that we are close to museums, the zoo, city park, restaurants and coffee shops. On the weekends we usually take our bikes to the zoo or to the large playground in city park.
Den 15e Juli föddes vår lille son Oscar. Han var 49,5 cm lång och vägde 3,2 kg. Jag njuter av att bara vara hemma med familjen och gosa med mina små skatter, Freya och Oscar.
Yesterday was the first day we heard Freya count from 1 to 10. She is learning more and more everyday and her vocabulary in both English and Swedish is increasing.
Below is a picture of Freya with her favorite doll, in our backyard. We're getting ready to build a new deck. We already removed the old deck and did some repair work on the brick wall (as you can see in the picture). Can't wait to have the deck built, repair the stucco on the wall and have it painted, and get some landscaping, so we can start enjoying our backyard again. Looking forward to having friends and family over for barbecue this summer.
Freya loves to sing and so far her favorite songs are twinkle, twinkle little star and itzy, bitzy spider. She doesn't quite know the words yet, but she imitates the sounds the best she can. Sometimes she sings in English and sometimes in Swedish. Very cute.
Who would have thought that we could get the chimney rebuilt in the middle of the winter?
It has been fairly mild for a few days and the mason could get it all done in one day, so why not? We are very happy with the result! Now, we only need the wood-burning stove...
Wooohahahaha…
We’re going to carve our jack-o’-lanterns and go trick-or-treating tonight. I hope everyone has a great weekend!
Isn’t Freya cute dressed up as a little bear?
