Welcome to our blogg.

We thought this would be a nice way to keep our friends and family updated about what we are up to! And for us to have some kind of diary, to save for the future when we move back home to Sweden. We choose to write in English so all our friend could read it=) (and it's also good practice for me)

About us

Dubai
We are a family of four, and one dog and six guinea pigs (and one cat that lives in Blentarp, Sweden) We moved to Dubai a year ago, Henrik is working here and Ingela is a housewife and both children are in school. Victoria is 7 years old and Cornelia is 5 years old. They are in grade 1 and 2. When they started school here, Victoria just started school in Sweden and didn't speak any English and Cornelia where still in kindergarten in Sweden and didn't speak any English either. Now a year later they speak English and writes and read English as well. They also learn Arabic in school. After some difficulties it seams like they enjoy school and our life here, and that feels very good. If they like it here it's easier for us to also relax and enjoy our stay here in Dubai. And now we have one more member of our family, a streetcat named Stripy, Findus, Nisse, Tiger and Findus=), and also one more guinea pig has died, so 5 guinea pigs left.

Sunday

On Friday a friend of ours had a little girl, who they named Kari (so I know no that I didn't win the competition=)) and everything went well as far as I know.
Today Victoria is home sick (cough) and it's always a bit tricky to leave Cornelia when she knows Victoria is home.
I have been running 6km and it was very warm (28 degrees Cecilius). Henrik has already done his first bench press session, and I'm supposed to help him with the bar, but the problem is that he has 40 kg on it and I can hardly lift it (good exercise for me to).
Today I will prepare Cornelia's room so that Family Nimlin can sleep in there. We are so looking forward to have them here=).
Now Henrik, me and Enja has done a lap around the lake (it's 1,2 km ).
This afternoon Cornelia is having swimming lessons at 4pm I think???
Otherwise the only thing on the agenda today is to try to get someone to fix our dishwasher, life is so much easier when you have one that works (at least for Leela).
