May Musings

May is wrapping up today and summer is beginning! May, the month of Mother's Day, is also of course the month of Mary for Catholics. This beautiful statue is on my dresser and reminds me daily to try and be the best mother I can be. 

We celebrated Sofia's 2nd birthday last weekend (so hard to believe!) and had a big party with all of our family. She had so much fun being the bella of the ball, playing with her cousins, eating cupcakes and opening gifts. She knew exactly what was going on and that it was all for her. I ordered this dress on etsy from the most adorable shop, Lover Dovers Clothing. I stumbled across the shop by chance and am glad I did. You must go take a peek at all of the adorable designs for children and grown-ups alike!

Isn't this a great time of year as school winds up, and plans are made for the hot days and lazy afternoons of summer? I'm a summer girl and am looking forward to being outside with the kids. We've already broken in the swings at the park.

...and spent many a May day at the baseball field.

I can't wait to head to the beach, the zoo, the amusement park, farmer's markets and flea markets. Naturally, we have to make time to indulge in ice cream cones and frozen treats (with a little help from this book), which I don't think will be a problem.

We've been eating dinners outside under our striped umbrella. Black and cream stripes remind me of Italian cafes, so I close my eyes and pretend I'm there sometimes. It works for a few seconds!

April showers did indeed bring May flowers. These were some of the ones in our yard.

Many a blossom got cut and brought inside.

I think that about sums up the beautiful month of May around here. All of these pictures were taken with my iphone and uploaded to Instagram. It's quick and easy, and I think it's a great way to see what your friends are up to through their photos. I've been using it daily and love it. You can add filters to your photos to make them look old, and quite cool I think. A pile of dirty dishes would probably even look good with Instagram! If you have Instagram and want to follow along with my photo stream, my user name is andreasingarella.

See you in June!

Först av allt vill jag säga fantastiskt blogg! Jag hade en snabb fråga som jag skulle vilja fråga om du inte har något emot. Jag var intresserad av att ta reda på hur du centrera dig själv och rensa tankarna innan du skriver. Jag har haft svårt att rensa mitt sinne för att få mina idéer ut. Jag verkligen inte tycker om att skriva men det bara verkar som de första 10 till 15 minuter är i allmänhet spillo försöker bara lista ut hur man ska börja. Alla idéer eller tips? Tack!

Hvala za stvaranje povjerenja pokušati dati objašnjenje za to. Osjećam se vrlo robustan otprilike to i žele biti informirani više. Ako je to u redu, kao što ste postigli dodatni intenzivni mudrost, možeš li misli dodavanjem dodatnih postove vrlo slične ovom jednom s više informacija? To bi mogla biti iznimno korisna i korisno za mene i moje kolege.
