Friday Night

Started off with dinner at Gastons.
My gorgeous mum and dad and I had some great food and lovely wine.
And then I met up with some friends, and we decided to go to Robert's Coffee again because the weather was awful, proper winter with rain and storm.
Beautiful T (I hope I'll look like this when I am pregnant and only have 8 weeks to go) and J
F and proud father-to-be P
It was a great night with lots of laughter (again)....
Thank you to my lovely friends for making me so happy all the time.

Babies and their mothers

P and R with A's daughter T
Lunch  time
Fika-time
Unfortunately the weather wasn't good enough for us to go for a walk around the lake, so we decided to just eat and eat instead. I like;)
A lovely day with my friends:)

Dinner and Movie

Lots of laughter last night when I spent the evening with my sister, we started off with some dinner at
La Cocaracha
Nachos and Burrito
And then green tea at Robert's Coffee before the film
A lovely evening as always...
And the film was hilariously laugh-out-loud funny
Go and see it

Thursday Morning

I went up to see A with family yesterday morning after breakfast.
The day started with some baby cuddles ,nappy changing and dressing little T:)
Sleeping beauty was kind enough to have a little rest so mummy could enjoy the lovely Scones she'd made.
I had just had breakfast, but I thought it was rude to say no...

Wednesday Evening

Crayfish season starts properly next week, but we cheated a bit and started early since I am not here then.
Lots of yummy food:)
And then some ball kicking in the garden
Afterwards we went for a walk around the pond and I managed to get five mosquito bites in 20 minutes... (!!)
My parents didn't get a single bite....
Ah well it was a nice walk anyway.

Wednesday Afternoon

Lunch with mum and dad in town
And I accidently bought another pair of shoes. I just can't visit this town without buying a pair of shoes in Bianco:)
They are gorgeous!
And then we picked up gran and took her for some waffles.
Yum:)
Another sunny day, thanks to my new friendship with the weather Gods...
Thank you.

Little Princess:)

A birthday present for my little princess niece from me and the Italian.
It's even big enough for adults
Isn't this the cutest tent ever?

Glorious Day

A few hours on the beach, and I even went for a swim - twice(!)
My dad and I were the only ones that were brave enough to go in a second time;)
And then After beach for a little bit before our tummys were screaming for Sushi.
They were called Vi3 and they were really good, they even played my favourite song. Which is??? You should know that by now - Sex On Fire with KOL off course. (It is actualy not my favourite song by them, but it is close enough:)) So I had to get up and have a little dance;)
Now I'm off to bed, another lovely day planned for tomorrow.

Sushi Night in the garden

I have had yet another amazing day with my family. We went to the beach, but I was more concerned about my nails than anything else apparently. I forgot, my phone, my camera and my money at home, but I did bring two magazines and twodifferent coloured nail polishes... 
I will get some pictures sent to me later so I will upload them then.
On our way back home, we stopped off in town and got some Sushi.
My sister and niece came with us as well, and since the weather gods are proving their existance at the moment, it was hot enough for us to sit outside;)

I bought a really cute dress in Oasis a few weeks before I left, and I gave the same one to my sister yesterday. I wasn't sure about sizes and things so I didn't want to wear mine until we had tried on which ones were better for us. So finally I got a chance to wear it today;)
I can't say it enough. I am loving it here. It is so different from the busy streets of London.
I really wish the Italian could've come with me.
Ah well, we just have to come back again soon;)

This morning

Has been spent here
In the sunshine and in the company of my father, who is drinking coffee in his "Top Dad" Jamie Oliver cup that I gave him a few years ago
And then later on my mum as well.
A lovely and relaxed morning.

The presents

Here are the lovely presents that I got from my sister, niece and brother-in-law
There were also some chocolate but.... I'm not really sure what happened, but all of a sudden it was all in my tummy without me even realising....
The top is absolutely gorgeous (from Vila, off course) but you can't really see it properly on these photos so I threw it on over my bikini just now to show you.
Both my sister and I have been looking for the top but it was their spring collection so it's already gone. But this one is even better because I can use it all year around. In the summer nights with leggings and then in the winter with some skinny jeans and heals.
Lovely presents and I am very pleased. Look at the gogeous tea box and the box to put the post in:)
Good books to bring with me on my holidays this summer and great dvd's to watch when the grey weather comes back to London.
And a beautiful little drawing from my niece;)

There is officially something wrong with me

Yesterday afternoon I felt really tired and the fact that the alarm went off at 3.30 am really caught up with me.
But then, after a few hours, I got some second wind power and I sat by the computer for a few hours and at 11pm I decided to go downstairs on the treadmill for 20 minutes....
So there I was, at midnight, 20 hours after I woke up, lying on the floor doing exercises....
Insane.
But then I slept really well until 9.30am this morning when my dad came to tell me the great news - the sun is shining:)

1st day in Sweden

After the dramatic morning where I almost missed my plane, the rest of the day turned out to be completely the opposite.
My parents picked me up and we drove along the coast to Båstad where we were meeting my sister, niece and brother in law.
On the way we stopped off here, where my parents had a mini holiday last week.

How gorgeous is this?
When we reached Båstad we had a lovely time at this cute cafe. It's a shame that I don't put pictures of my niece here because I got some gorgeous photos of the two of us together today.
Afterwards I went home to my sisters house and I got some belated birthday presents, and I also gave some birthday presents to her.
I got some great things that I will show you later.
While we were there my niece took this picture of me;)
And then when I got home my mom took these photos of me, so this is the real, calm, relaxed Swedish me. No make up and greasy hair. Yum!
I have had such a lovely day, I have this weird feeling that I have already been here for a long, long time. I can't believe it's my first day here and I have got another six to go:)
