Scarce

Updates this week have been scarce - I apologize.
We've been busy and tired.
Sophia is still adjusting to our return - or so I think. Otherwise, she lost all of our night routine, and that would suck.

She's quite the lady now actually. She sucks her hands, her feet, anything in front of her actually. She can sit pretty well, even without our help and "talks" a lot.
Oh, and I forgot. She laughs too. It's super cute.

Here are a few pictures from the "weekend".

Monday

Or it feels like at least.
The day in Chapala was amazing.
Sophia used her pool and we had good food.

How was your valborg/may first?

Fan

Not the Swedish curse word, but the ventilator.

We bought a second fan yesterday. I was supposed to put it together - since I am the technical one in this household (;
Or was it because I said that and Memo challenged me!?
Either or, if you tell me I cannot do it I will try.
And I have tried.
It's all done - except for putting the two grills (covers) together.
I cannot!

Anywho, we're going to Chapala today.
I have packed, even the tiny pool I bought Sophia!
It will be great.
But first
Swedish tacos

Definition

The definition of Manipulate:

To influence or manage shrewdly or deviously: He manipulated public opinion in his favor.


Thus, I did not manipulate Memo when I asked him to call us on Skype so that he could speak with his daughter. 
I was not trying to be devious, it wasn't for personal gain - it was actually for Memo's gain. 
He might not understand the importance of him speaking to Sophia (nor do other Mexicans, it seems), but it is important that he speaks to her. 
He spends practically no time with her, and while we were away for 2 weeks it was important that he talked with her a bit everyday - so that she would know his voice when we came back.
Therefore, it could neither be defined as me trying to whip him. 


Anyone who knows Memo and I's relationship a bit closer, i.e. my friends, knows that he is all but whipped. Some would actually say that I am the whipped one - of those who knows the real deal that is. 


If there is something I really dislike it is people that opens their big ones without knowing the facts, or in this case without using their logic thinking AT ALL. 


I just don't get it. 


Please explain how asking a father to talk to his daughter is whipping and manipulating!?


Väx upp för fan


Although, some might not understand this, Memo and I chose to have a  family. It was not a mistake or an accident - which probably comes as a chock to most - but something we wanted. 
So please, Mexicans, stop trying to manipulate (used in its right sense) Memo into thinking that we're in his way.







Empty

It's empty.
Memo is in Mexico City, and Sophia is in bed.
I am eating peanuts and drinking coke (surprise).

Is valborg today?
I haven't celebrated valborg in years.
On valborg it is actually just exactly one year ago I realized I was preggers.
Time flies.

Valborg 2011
Do I miss my friends - like crazy!!!!!!

Back to reality

Sophia and I are back to reality.
Although it sucks a little bit to be back here, it was nice to see Memo.

Our trip was amazing.
We saw dolphins, amazingly white sand, turquoise water and huge ships.

Here is our trip in photos
