With the cousins!

Angelikka really had fun when we were in Philippines specially time together with her cousins. She don't feel strange or different at all when she was with them. They speaks whatever, english, visaya,swedish and yet they understand anyway. The funny thing was, while laikka learning visaya from them, her cousins learned fast more from Laikka, I mean swedish. I was amazed hearing them speaking some swedish word and even a short sentence.

Oh how I miss them. Laikka  still remember them and their names now. I just always show her their pictures. And sometimes they say 'hi' 'hellos' at the internet.  She ask me when she can meet them again:)???

Out with her summer thing!

She thought and insisted that its already summer and so she must take out here bike and have a joy riding around..but then she was disappointed and I felt so sorry for her.

flat tire

I even took the bike from a hard and tapsy garage and she kindly watch the baby outside, the father still at work but I can see her energy of wanting to roam around her bike cause it was wonderful weather we had last friday so I tried to get her bike though. But then when she's already excited to ramble, we found out that her bike has flat tire:( Huh, it seems her excitement fell so down..disappointed! Haayyy..but she understand so I just let her pose and have pictures just outside our apartment and we went home!

Still looking for a pump..we were busy on the weekend:) Have a great week ahead everyone!

WHITE in Mommy Moments!

This weeks Mommy Moments is color 'white'. I don't like white clothings because of its fragility..hehe. Its easy to get dirty and therefore we must have extra care if we have white on us. Yes specially to children, they don't care:) But then, in what reason I have so many whites I realized. I don't know how it happened:) Anyway, for my entry today, here I'll share some:)



angelikka white cape

I like this white blazer or cape on her. She recieved it during her one year old birthday but it was little big for her that time:) It still fit her until now.



This is my favorite white spring jacket. It fits me well and elegant. So comfortable. This was given during my__ birthday.:) wink*

Happy Mommy Moments Every one!

the cross-eyed bear:)

Angelikka been so sweet naughty this days. She already have many things learned for fun. She always made me laugh everyday by playing anything funny and even sometimes sarcastic story and funny faces. But making her eyes cross each other is the one I don't like and it triggers her more to do it knowing I don't like it! huh! her father has taught her how to do it and it irritates me.

And the white thing under her lips is a cream she'd put to make it like a beard or a mustache. I don't know what she eat.hahha! But she think its funny!:)

Sleeping on the Floor!

The first day we arrive at our house in Philippines, Angelikka was so tired that she right away lied on the floor until she fall asleep. It was so hot that time when we were there thats why we became tired so easy plus the long travel, no wonder Angelikka became so exhausted. Good thing my parents changed already our flooring into something cooler, it was the classic Hardwood Floor before. It was perfect timing for my little girl. I remember she slept so long even of some disturbance from cousins:)

I just find this picture so cute of her lying there and I know she don't understand yet what happen and who are these people around her:) As I was checking our pictures from Philippines this makes me smile and missing again PI. Oh please! Anyway, Another week I know it won't be long and it will be summer time again so, start planning for summer activities now and feel the warm once again. Exciting!

Weekend Activities!

Hello everyone! How was your weekend? Hope everyone got a good one. In our part, the whole family did a general cleaning in our simple home. We thought the summer or spring already coming so soon, so we better fix a little beautifying our crib.

My husband doing the hard, heavy and difficult part like wiping the glass windows while me was doing the extras that i think only women can have the patience doing, I mean the details. And the girl in the house and thats Angelikka at first just watching us, observing, I know she wanted to help but how. Yes, she did!!! While we're on break, I sneakout to my computer as well as my husband, you know doing shout out on facebook and checking  of course some newsfeeds, doing ppc management on my blogs. Well, it took us maybe half an hour break and we didn't realized what our little girl was doing during those time. Guess what? she took over her father's work:) Yes she took the mop and continue mopping the floor and as we noticed she was enjoying it.

She looks like she had fun anyway. I hope it will make her understand that we do need sometimes to do cleaning and its a fun instead of a hard work:) Have a wonderful week everyone! Be happy always! Godbless!

Her PR3 is back!

Everytime I heared from bloggers that there's something going on on google's PR, I always become nervous and excited and hoping. Nervous that my PR4 'Insights' will drop and excited that Laikka's and my other PR0 will get a PR somehow.

And then yesterday, as I checked again, was so happy when I found out Angelikka's PR3 is finally back. After a month of working it out, visiting and linking back, so happy to get it back! Thanks Mr.G. and thank you guys for the visits and comments.

HAPPY BLOGGING EVERYONE!

More Blessings for Laikka!

Another season is coming! Laikka is growing up. I noticed lately while I'm dressing up my school girl everyday that her clothes are getting shorter:) So I said, hmm its time to change her closet. And again its gonna be expensive.


I tried to segregate the clothes by its kind..hahah!

Wow! God is good all the time because He's been using people to bless us with everything we need. Number one giver to us as I always been mentioning here is my husband's sister Mia. Last weekend Angelikka recieves a bundle or a bags of clothing which really fits for this time of season. So today I just finished changing her closet!

Snowdrops is falling on my head..:)

Yesterday when i drop Angelikka to school, the weather was not that good as few days ago. Well, already couple of weeks we experienced better weather. The sun shines and the ice already melted and I thought the spring already is in the air and summer coming soon. So when it was a little gloomy yesterday morning, I just thought also that the sun will shine later. But then when I picked up Angelikka in the afternoon...the road already so white and its snowing! We, Erika's stroller and my jacket were sooo wet. And when Laikka already with us walking and snowdrops falling on us..She was enjoying it..hehe running ang picking up snow in the streets form into a ball and throw it. Haha!

And today, when we woke up and peep out the window checking the weather, usschhh as in still snowing:) "we will not go to school, hehhe"! Its so hard for me and the tendency for us, specially the children to be sick is so big. Better to be home while we can and do some fun instead.

Good there are already small carts for children wherein they can borrow and enjoy shopping too while we parents can shop freely without any disturbance.

Everynow and then, she's happy when we go to grocery stores and always prepare a 5kronor mynt for her small costumer cart. haha! she's just cute. She usually has a full cart than ours:) Have a good day everyone!

Smart Girl for a smart girl!

Since I just got a new baby, It's hard now to go out and visit malls for my shopping spree:) Well, yes I love shopping for me and for my girl Laikka. Shopping is my way of releasing some stress. Specially when 'REA' is present. It's a swedish word for SALE. Here in sweden, when its sale its really sale. And when I see on reklam that there's sale, my shopping hormones really moves..hehe. No wonder that my girl has a semblance of me. She love dresses and thinks nice dresses and some fashion jewelries can made her beatiful. And yes she wants to go with me shopping.

But now I got another girl and still few months old. Its hard to go out and window shop to the mall when you have a 4 year old girl and a little baby with you. I'm so happy to find this online shopping store at http://www.smartgirl.se/. Wow, perfect for my vanities because they have lots of girl's wear that are affordable and uniquely nice shop for us women and a large of varieties we really can enjoy shopping. Perfect for my situation because I can just sit in my computer and shop online. They have a very good services with a fast and safe deliveries.

So what are you waiting mommies like me? If you have no time to go into a chaos world of malls and you want a calm and time saver shopping? Smart girl online shopping is for you!

She's with me in the church today!

before the service start

Angelikka now that she's older already find it interesting to go to church because she already can attend sunday school together with other children. But today she's just with me inside the church. She told me, she just want to sit beside me and will not go to SS. When I ask her why she just said she's tired..hahhah! But infairness, she didn't sleep. We had a special speaker today from Potters House, Texas. He's so lively that even a child can hang out listening to him. I'll talk about him more at my Insights Blog.


outside the church -infront



I'm so happy that my girl already adjusts how to behave when we are inside the church. I can't force her and I did not do it. I always asks her if she want to go with me or not but if she do, I'm so thankful and glad!All I can do is uphold my children in my prayers. I always beleive that there is no hopeless case for a praying mother!

I hope everyone had a blessed sunday today and I wish you all a great week ahead! Godbless!
