My morning joy

Morning! Here's a wobbly (trying to stand), freshly changed and dressed (with a messy mohican!) Baby Bear watching Telly Tubbies. Oh, my angel really brings me so much joy in the morning

Saturday's crayfish party

The outfit above, followed by the party, in typical Swedish style:





The Proposal

Over the weekend I watched "The Proposal". It turned out to be one of the better romcoms I've seen in a long time (with Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds i.e. husband to Scarlett Johanson).

In this now-famous kneeling on the pavement scene (above), just check out the lovely leather tote from Prada, and how can one miss the Louboutins she's wearing?

Well apart from all the fab gear Sandra gets to wear during the movie, it's the perfect chick-flick and I would recommend any girl to take her friend with her to the movies to see it.

Yesterday at our country club

South of France? More like Buckinghamshire, South East England LOL


Keeping a watching eye at all times


A little grumpy with puffy eyes and a blocked nose

But that soon changed as soon as Bear took him in the pool

Sassy

Really like this '09 campaign with Katie Holmes from Prada's little sister, Miu Miu. Here she surprisingly looks rather sassy I think!

Finally we're off to the park

A little later than anticipated, we are now heading for the park as London is blessed (or cursed, some might say) with 29 degrees today.

I'm wearing a mini skirt (not stripping down to bikini bottoms in the public park), bikini top and a tunic with my Ed Hardy cap (I always cover face when sunbathing
To read, I'm taking the latest issue of MAMA that arrived in post today, and my beautifully written but pure fiction book; Nights of Rain and Stars.

Food wise, well I'm taking last nights dinner with me; grilled skinless chicken fillet with sun-dried tomato pasta.

Have a warm and jolly day! Make the most of it, cos it might just b the last really warm day this end of Summer :-)
XOXO

Difficulties staying awake

I really love this


“To laugh often and much; To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; To appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.”


-Ralph Waldo Emerson

We're back!

Our new mobile playpen that we also will take with us when going on holiday in Portugal

My Burberry waist coat, once a jacket

Work in progress

Back in London and it's chaos in our flat, to say the least. I am surrounded by heaps of dirty washing, clean washing hanging to dry and a huge playpen in the middle of our living room where I keep Sean for the time being (or else he is a danger to himself when crawling around and pulling anything in reach) so I don't have to watch him the whole time in order for me to get on with all stuff that needs doing when back from a holiday.

And to top that up, we also have a builder here with all his equipment. He will be putting spotlights (very low voltage that is baby safe) on our small 6 steps wooden staircase leading up to our bedroom.
Its quite a big job where he have to take it apart in places and with cables and wires and fitting a new switch etc. He says it will take a few days but I know it will be so worth it with lovely blue dimmed lights to our little upstairs love nest. And no doubt will whoever buys the flat from us like it too.

I collected my Burberry jacket (once was, not anymore) where the sleeves have been taken off as I thought I will make more use of it as a waist coat. Here is what it looked like before taking it to the tailor. I am very pleased with the result

Trampoline fun

Sean laughing out loud on his first ever trampoline experience (with a little help from his Dad)

FIKA

Having a "fika" with Mum's friends Jessica, Sven and their two year old twins Victor & Erik. (By the way, there is no direct translation for "fika", but it sort of means having coffee and cakes)
