A bit about us, maybe a dash more! Monday, January 11, 2010. For all of you who keep track, I have not blogged in a long time. Shie is the one who has been good at keeping everyone around the world up to date with the goings on here with the American Sjostrom family. My thoughts have not been completely blog idle. I have been taking pictures of things I have deemed blog worthy. So, here are some random pictures taken from the last 3 months. It took me exactly two hours to shovel my way out of the snow!

OurFamilyBlog: Her "favorite" song
http://shieandjonas.blogspot.com/2011/07/her-favorite-song.html
A bit about us, maybe a dash more! Tuesday, July 26, 2011. Esther asks to listen to this song about 10 times a day. She sings and dances along. It's wonderful to see. I don't have a video of her singing and dancing to this yet, but I thought I'd share the song with you. Enjoy! Official music video from the artist plays in the USA only :(. Her name is Francesca Battistelli. Here is another one I found of the same song. Hope it works outside the States! July 27, 2011 at 12:21 PM. July 27, 2011 at 2:43 PM.

OurFamilyBlog: Thoughts from Shie
http://shieandjonas.blogspot.com/2011/07/thoughts.html
A bit about us, maybe a dash more! Friday, July 8, 2011. She was just a little girl. She ran in the woods. Soaked in the fragrance of Spring. She created beautiful things. Looked up and saw the love of her life. She said, In sickness and in health, I do. She felt the tiny flutter of a heartbeat. Held a baby in her arms. Whispered softly, sang gently. Was filled with love and pain. There was no sickness. She suffered, she mourned. She longed to make things beautiful again. Hold her children, her husband.

A bit about us, maybe a dash more! Sunday, August 8, 2010. Our daughter is growing up so fast. She is learning so many new words both in Swedish and English every day.

A bit about us, maybe a dash more! Saturday, March 27, 2010. Catching up in a nutshell. Here are a few things we have been up to the last few weeks/months. 2 While Es and I were in Philly, my dear husband, back in Mpls, stripped the carpet upstairs and replaced it with wonderful, hardwood floors. Yeah! They look amazing and we are soooo glad to have that nasty carpet out of here ("Mean wife" story and pics of floors also at a later date! Last summer in Sweden I got to taste Smultron, a wild strawberry th...

A bit about us, maybe a dash more! Friday, September 18, 2009. Ir, Sam and little Noah. Noah, get ready for a lot of hugs and kisses :-). PS This is the only pic I have from our Sweden trip that has them all together, without the others. This will be remedied shortly! Saturday, September 12, 2009. Sunday, September 6, 2009. Pastor Chris really came to my rescue on this day. He helped me both with the roofing and sheathing of the house. The siding was all put back that same day. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

A bit about us, maybe a dash more! Saturday, May 22, 2010. So she won't stay mad at me for not updating our blog! This is a video from the last day at the weekly school Es went to this Winter/Spring. Little Miss Independent! They had a fun little play area for kids at the Philly airport. Es with her cousin Jadon at the mall during our Philly trip enjoying a few rides.

A bit about us, maybe a dash more! Friday, February 12, 2010. Worth a second look. The dentist couldn't have had a more appropriate name! 3 guesses - 1. has really short arms, 2. wanted to give the car a Mohawk, 3. is laziness personified. On a different note: Es loves purses (purrsh, as she calls them) and sometimes insists on taking my old, empty purses when we go out! Thursday, February 11, 2010. All about the little one. Goes on, as they say! Early Childhood Family Education, like the Swedish Öppna.

OurFamilyBlog: Twinkle, Twinkle sung by a little star!
http://shieandjonas.blogspot.com/2011/02/twinkle-twinkle-sung-by-little-star.html
A bit about us, maybe a dash more! Sunday, February 27, 2011. Twinkle, Twinkle sung by a little star! Ime flies, is flying, has flown! Everyday Esther's speech becomes clearer and both J and I are nostalgic of the days when she was just learning to talk. The little mixed up pronunciations were always so much fun. I wanted to capture her singing this song with a couple of mixed up words before she stopped doing it! March 2, 2011 at 12:47 AM. Tack lilla Esther för den fina sången! Du är så duktig!
