This just came to me as I was surfing today...


To everybody that I know and knows me...I LOVE YOU ALL/JoJo

Fall is here




Today I met up with all my mommy friends and their babies and we were talking babies and drinking coffee like always when we get together. Lots of fun as usual. Jenny and Milo were also there. It has been a sunny but very cold and windy day today and you can definetly say that fall is here. Noah just had his bath and fell alseep all by himself in his gribb. He is a really good boy with doing that lately. But I guess it's not hard to fall a sleep if you are really tired. Bart went to the store and bought some peanut butter and made some cowpies. Yummy! He surprised me with a fall bouquet of flowers and of course I had to cry a couple of tears. It feels like life is treating us good lately. It's important to treasure every day and be thankful for the small things in life. It's those every days that are life, so don't waste any. Start live today!

Daisy got a new bed


Daisy is enjoying her new bed we got her. We were tired of her sleeping in the bed with us taking up the whole space. She was also allowed in the coach before, but not anymore. It wasn't as hard as we thought to get her to use this dog bed we borrowed from Kenzo, Jenny and David's dog. Today we got Daisy her own bed and she absolutly loves it. So does Gus the cat. Too bad the he is sick and only has months to live. He loves to cuddle up next to Daisy asn you can see.

Milo and Noah are now baptised. It was a day filld with lots of fun and even some tears of joy. Thanks to everybody for making the boys special day so memorable. We all love and appreciate each single one of you!

Here's is everybody a little later after the baptism enjoying the food.

My brother Patrik is proudly wearing his uniform, here standing next to David's brother Veronika holding Milo.

The Mendonca family is happy, Noah was tired and fell asleep on daddy!

Veronika, Ida, Caroline and Patrik now have the important job to be the Godparents. Veronika and Patrik are Milo's and Caroline and Ida are Noah's.

Here is the Wiik and Börjestål family, so proud and happy! Milo plays with his ribbons on the outfit, so cute!

Here's everybody involved in the baptism all walking up the aisle together.

Noah's Godpmothers really took on their task with their entire hearts. Thank you girls! I love you and Noah is so greatful to have have you as his Godmothers.

All American boy


Yesterday my sisters and I went to the grocery store to get the last few things for the baptism that's on Saturday. Afterwards we decided to grab a hot dog and a soda in the cafeteria by the store. First a man that sat next to me asked if Noah was half Swede for some reason. Than when I was drinking my Pepsi, Noah grabed a hold of it and was about to put it in his mouth. Is it that obvious that my son is half American? He obviously has the American glow to him self and he already is crazy for soda :)

Noah is getting big and is growing up too fast


Noah sits like a big boy in the coach next to the best dad in the world. When he sits like this I call him my Budda-baby because of the fat belly.



My sweetest Noah, I love you so much. I want to teach you all I can and I want to love you so much that you will never leave you moms arms. You are the light of my life and I wounder how it's possible for a little boy like you to be filled with so much love. When I see you in your cribb in the mornings and you greet me with the biggest smile on your face I am still thinking: How did I get so lucky? 3 months have now passed and and I am so proud and happy to be Noah's mom.

I just want to show you a clip of Noah exercising on his quilt. Bart and I have a bet going on when he will make his first flip over. It's close as you can see on this film. Enjoy!

fun with the family


Yesterday Patrik and Caroline came over to our place to hang out with us for a while. We went to pick up Jenny and Milo and we all took a walk down to the ocean. It was a hot day and we were all walking up a sweat. Noah is now sitting in his big boy stroller and likes it a lot. He want to be able to look around now. When he's tired you can lay it all flat so he can sleep. It's nice to be albe to live so close to the ocean, it's a shame though that you don't walk down there more often.


The uncle is home this weekened and was enjoying the boys too.

Ceaser Milan personified. You can also call me "The dogwisperer". Talk about powerful and fun to be the leader of the pack.

Here's a car I found on a driveway. I am not lying when I think Bart would have to sit in the trunk to be able to drive this piece of crap. But it's cute though

When we came back from our 2 hour long walk we all hung out a Jenny's place. A little later my mom and Ida also came to make us company. Here's Noah in Milo's swing, actually able to bounce around a little this time. I think he enjoys it more now. Stinkin' cute is he anyway!

Goofball Patrik is trying to make is nephews laugh with this stick from the ice cream he just ate. He's funny my little brother!


It's funny now when the cousins have started to interact more with eachother. Noah sometimes laughs out loud when he sees Milo. So adorable!

Aunt Caroline has a real good hand with the boys. She always makes them laugh. Here she is with Milo who has had a little cold the last couple of days. I hope he is getting good soon!

Caroline, our best nanny!

Mormor getting her weekly dose of her grandkids, she just loves those kids.

I am fixing Milos baptism outfit and putting on blue ribbons on it. I hope he likes it.

Fun times


Noah wants to face the world now in the Baby Björn

Daddy putting his little son to sleep
Bart and Daisy have a love-hate relationship. Here they are at a walk together. It's fall in Sweden right now, the leafes are getting yellow it it's getting a little colder.
Mommy striking a pose with Noah in his new travel stroller that we got for our trip to the states.
Here's a proud Mendonca
Serious looking Josefine.


Noah is wearing his "My first christmas" hat he got from aunt Amy. A little early for that perhaps but as you can see it's way too small for him. He looks a little confused don't you think?

Gymnastics with mom




Noah cracks up when I lift him up like this. The other day when I blew on his tummy he laughed like a real littel boy, not just littel baby giggles anymore.

A sweet taste of home...


Bart is known for his famous cookies and has turned me into a real cookie monster with his chocolate chip cookies and cowpies that he makes every other day. I guess it's a little sweet way for him to feel like home. We are going to the states in 4 weeks from now and I can really see the joy in my husbands eyes. Now he has the cutest gift life can offer, his son Noah, to show off. We are so excited to come see everybody. Here below are some memories from the last time we were over there...

Matt decided to do the worm one day...he just cracks me up that man!

The sisters and the brothers with their spouses and kids. Noah and Caden are still in there mommys bellies. Fun times!

Bart and Carter are posing by a huge cactus

Here's Ashlyn, the sweetest girl in the world, by her b-day cake and her earrings that are glowing. She is such a kind and carring kid who is more than happy to help out.
