This post used to contain pictures, but due to new storage limitations from WordPress, I had to fix the problem and decided to create a new blog that works as an archive for all the posts from my two years in California. This full post can be found here.

In exactly seven days my mom will be here. I can’t belive it! It was more than five months ago we said goodbye to each other at the airport in Gothenburg. And when she is back in Sweden again in four weeks, half my time here in the United States is over. And everyone keeps telling me that the last six months goes so fast. And I thought the first six went fast… I’m very excited anyway and I’m really looking forward to spending three weeks with her!

This evening was spent in Del Mar with au pair friends. We had dinner at Sammy’s Woodfired Pizza and Grill. Me and Moa shared a pizza. My half was a hawaiian pizza and hers was the same without the pineapple and with some extra fries on it. The waitress thought that was super funny, she had never heard of that before. I bet she told everyone in the kitchen about it. When it was ready to be served and it was on the counter everyone walking past it was staring and laughing, haha!

After, all the Swedish girls (me, Moa, Karin and Kristel) except Victoria went to Starbucks to hang out a little. Really nice!

The working hours of today was pretty rough. Well, not too bad actually, the girl wasn’t feeling so well so we were at the house the whole day. She was watching TV most of the time while I was outside with the boy in the afternoon. He was really absent minded today and didn’t listen to anything I said and that’s what made my day tough. Normally he is the sweetest kid ever, but when I said something today, he answered and then didn’t react at all to it because he didn’t listen… I’m really glad that was a one time thing, I can only imagine how hard this job would be if I had to deal with that every day. I’m so blessed to have these two kids. So sweet, helpful, adorable and well behaved! But they are humans and have days that are worse than others, like all of us.

Super healthy lunch and my not so healthy dinner (with Moa’s weird half)…
