Service & Pea Soup

Our car needs to go to the shop for some standard milage service. It´s also a "have too" for when we´re selling it. The new car will soon be here.

At the shop they had a kids bike.. a kids motorcycle.. It was really cool. I wonder what Milton and Denver would have said ?

Picture taken alone makes it look almost normal if you don´t look at the tires :)

Next to a car it´s really tiny :)

Milton and Denver having pea soup for the first time. They liked it but Denver put all of our bread in his plate :).. and sucked on the bread.

More Houses 2 See

We got an early start. 08:15 we knocked on mummi´s door. We saw a couple newly woken girls named Lova and Wilda in their nightis. Milton ran in laughing and screaming since he´s been up since 06:20. While we waited for mom to move one of the horses from one stable too the next the kids played and ate breakfast.

Our main goal today´s to look at houses. We were suppose to look at several houses but we skipped one, I had written down the wrong sunday on one and one was cancelled. We were left with 2 in different areas and purpose. One was pretty small but has a big lot and far from "the center", the other one was pretty big but with a small lot in the center of the area. It was pretty hard because I kind of liked both in their way. If we get the smaller house cheap we can expand the house, build stable, horse paddock and more... Even if it´s a bit outside it will still increase in value a lot. The bigger house was almost falling a part. Nothing had been done since it was built in 1970. It´s cheaper than the other houses in the area so if we can renovate it cheap we can make a lot of money on the value increase but probably not as much as the smaller house... abut it´s easier for me to get to work... it´s not easy.

Lunch break at our favorite pizza place before going to the other house.. we had 45 minutes from parking the car to getting to the bigger house.

Check out Mr Denver brows.. They are THERE.

Denver had no problem eating.

Nice area, close to everything, bigger house, very nice planning... but needs work.

After the last house mom went riding and we joined. Milton leading one of mom´s horses.

Milton feel down in a pile of rubbles and got a cut.. but he didn´t mind :) He looked more proud then hurt..

A Royal Visit

Cousins Lova and Wilda came by with Happy Meals.... and baba bozorg and mummi. Since baba and mummi was baby sitting Lova and Wilda they swong by our place for some playtime. Honouring the day, they brought HappY MealS with toys :) It became a crazy fun and active night.

Mom´s make up didn´t stand a chance!

We Need This !

Mom took off to the stables so I took off to the close by shopping mall. Usually on weekends I take the kids to the city but not today. I felt like shopping some clothes to the boys (no, mom didn´t like all the stuff I bought :) Milton also told me that he wanted to go on the subwaytrain so it all felt so clear.

Once we got to the shopping mall I bought some drugs for the kids, some wine, cider and beer for us gownups. Before I went to H&M for the clothes we stopped at a toystore. Yes, I know I am buying to much crap to the boys but it´s not so bad... yet. Today I told Milton that he and Denver could have one toy each. Denver had fallen asleep so Milton picked out a toy for him also. Milton chose a blue tractor for himself and a blue airplane for Denver. The funny part of this story was what Milton did after that. I stood by the cashier buying the tractor and airplane when Milton comes up to me with a box in his hand, puts the box in my hand, looks at me and says:

-"Vi behöver den här" (we need this)

It was so funny. What was the toy "we need" so much ?... A green motorcycle :)

Milton with the much needed motorcycle and Denver with his blue airplane.

Cruising 4 A House

In 1 month and 3 weeks we wont have a place to stay so today we all took a drive and looked at some houses. It´s really a backup since our preference area is at another place, although not to far away. Three houses and all seemed okay but not really what we are looking for. Both Milton and Denver had fun playing where ever they were :)

House Nr 1 (all in Åkersberga) - Front

House Nr1 - Back (different backyard)

House Nr 2 - Front (nice front)

House Nr 2 - Back

House Nr 3 - Front

House Nr 3 - Back (big backyard)

Milton´s New Favorite

Milton watches "Toy Story 2" over and over again. He also likes "Robin Hood" from 1973 a lot. His new favorite is "Bamse - Världens Starkaste Björn" (Bamse - The Worlds Strongest Bear)

Apartment Sold !

Someone bought our apartment. We got more than we expected so we are all very happy. Today we signed the contract with the buyers. It´s a strange feeling knowing we have to leave the apartment in about two months (that´s the timezone we agreed on). Mid-november we have to have somewhere to go. House hunting begins tomorrow :)..

New home, new Pre-School, new area... a new "start".

Milton outside the office we signed the contract. Inside Milton walked his first spiral staircase.

Denver walking the area.

Our home is sold!

Mom´s Choice

Mom came home late so we all went to the "vallokal" (polling station) again. Mom´s just a uncertain as most, but atleast she made a choice.

Denver being a rolemodel showing responsible people what they have to do... Vote!!

Denver showing what his feelings are towards people who don´t vote.

Election Day !

It´s time to make a choice. It´s election time in Sweden. Who will win ? Who will take control ? There´s been a lot of talk about SD, a rascist party. There´s also been a lot dirty campaigns and accusation of lying between the two major blocks. I guess it´s normal. The difference I guess is that several parties joined to run in two different teams, not counting the SD party of course. No one wants to work together with a party that has a rascist agenda.

Milton and Denver´s first election cue.

What to choose ? Maybe the boys know :)

Milton fell a sleep. That´s a though election :)

A Quick Lunch

Our real showing of our apartment is today. While people came to look at our apartment we went out for a quick lunch. I couldn´t really eat at home. It would get messy and people would interupt us :)

Denver fell a sleep AGAIN.. This boy´s falls a sleep every other day right before we´re sitting down to eat. Luckily I know how to "save for later" :)

Milton loves pizza salad and has started to use the fork eating it.

Milton happy about the pizza. His first own pizza.

He managed to eat more than half. More than I thought he would eat.
