Dedicated to aunt jessie in Iowa!!!!

We love and cherish our moments with our wonderful aunt jessie.....

Elly M's highchair

One thing i do love about sweden is the store called IKEA... very cheap things can be bought there and this here splendid little high chair cost us about $15 american dollars. Of course they were out of the tray, but that just gives me an excuse to drive and hour all over again to tramp around ikea.... and the picture of jonathan,, i guess maybe elly m. was getting a little too much attention from me.... he had to do tricks so that i would take pictures of him... so silly... but so fun.

Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree...

to everyone in memphis's envy, jonathan, elly m. and i got to go somewhere other than home depot to get our tree. we got to go to a farm and pick it out and watch jonathan cut it down. though, the first picture is a re-enactment of the whole thing because silly me forgot the camera, my strong husband really did cut this big brute down and carry it all the way to the car for us.... then we got to go home and decorate it. Isn't it pretty????

Blueberry eating...yummmmmieeeee......

Well, I should of known that i would feel this way, but I am not all that excited to be back to sweden. I am super excited to be with jonathan, and we really really missed him, but america is where this little heart lies. anyways. here is a few pics of elly märta eating blueberries, but don't worry many made it into her belly too. She has had quite the cold since we returned and we haven't had much sleep, but we are hanging in there. time change and colds do not go good together.

family photos...

My last night with the fam. we had a good time together.

I miss you jonathan!!!

I miss you jonathan!!! i love you babe!

I feel so bad....

I must apologize to jonathan and myself and elly m. I didn't take but 10 pictures while i was in memphis... i am so sad about that. I haven't taken any lately either. i guess i haven't felt so well lately. i am so sorry. i will take some today at my grandparent's house and post them later. i love you and miss you jonathan.

4 months old and new shoes...

elly m. is four months old today... and i wanted jonathan to see her new shoes. don't you love them jonathan?? i knew you would. pretty little girl shoes... she loves to look at them.

a few quick pictures...

hey jonathan... elly m. loves her daddy. i found a shirt that said it. She told me this morning that she wanted to give you some pictures in her new shirt on the blog, so i said okay. We didn't leave for memphis last night, but i think we will tonight. i just didn't feel that good yesterday. i thought for sure that i was getting the illness. eek... but tonight. i will leave tonight. we love you babe. we miss you!!!

Fluff head...

We tried to get the cradle cap off elly m.'s hair and her hair became extremely fluffy. it was so cute.
