5 months old today!!!!

'A new baby is like the beginning of all things - wonder, hope, a dream of possibilities'.- Eda J. Le Shan

Hi all

So, its the 24 and the Love of my Life has turned 5 months today!!!!! My beautiful baby girl makes my morning so pleasant, my days filled with new surprises and my nights longer. Her smiles lift my heart and her laughter is truly magical, every time she laughs we all want to know what is so funny. And boy can the girl 'talk'. She can tell a story!!!!!! She gets so excited when she 'talk's. Her whole face lights up. Its like she has been waiting for such a long time to be able to express herself. She is truly the apply of her grandparents eye and such a little darling to everyone she comes across. Below are some pictures of my little miss.

- Very expressive
- Babbles, giggles and laughs
- Let you know when she wants your attention.
- Extremely social
- Has been to an open air concert (loved it and even sang)
- Very easily distracted (works well, when I am putting on her clothes)
- Has her own sense of humor
- Feeds herself
- Has certain food preferences (  puree - sweet potatoes Yes, broccoli No!!!! )
- Very good eye vision
- Favorite toys
- Favorite songs
- Sleeps very well at night (not so good during the day)
- Yoga may be in her future

All in all, a wonderful 5 months have we had with Miss Yemaya, cant wait to see what else she holds over the next few weeks and months. I still cant believe that I gave birth 5 months ago. I am still in awe. Wonderful bliss.

Peace, Love and 5 Months of Bliss

Stockholm metro art: Thorildsplan

'The essence of all beautiful art, all great art, is gratitude'.- Friedrich Nietzsche

Hi all

New week, new metro stations!!!! And I present to you Thorildsplan. This station has tiled walls inspired by pixelated symbols of computer games and iconic computer symbols - Pacman anyone? These were created by artist Lars Arrhenius in 2008. 

When you get to the station you find a beautiful warm greeting by way of a huge sun relief which is behind the tracks. This was done by Huck Hultgren in 1975.   Onto pictures

The station

 Beautiful passage

Awwwww

PacMan?

This is such a happy station, I mean all these bright colors and happy images. It was my first time to get to this stop and I couldn't believe all these fun little icons. I will hopefully go back for another quick stop.

Peace, Love and Art
