Life goes by fast. Especially when you have a little one. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There is hardly any time to reflect. Blogging kind of fell off my list of things to do. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She is almost 10 months now. She can pull herself up and stand. No walking yet. Thank god.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She keeps me plenty busy as it is... </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I put the jewelry business aside for right now. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There just never felt like a good time to go to the studio.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Dont get me wrong, I do miss it and I plan on getting back to it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is just that this time will never come back and I dont want to miss a second of it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am having way too much fun!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

The day before I went into labor. I felt amazing the whole pregnancy. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But I didn't feel so amazing when the contractions started Saturday morning and</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
continued all through Sunday with Eden Rose Jordan born May 19th 2013 at 11:32pm.</div>

She is punctual just as her mom though (being born on her due date and all) :) </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Its been 3 months since she arrived and I cant picture life without her.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love being a mother and even though its been quite an adjustment</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
its still by far the best decision I have ever made in my life.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So what am I up to besides changing diapers and breastfeeding?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Well not much else so far.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I think we have finally landed into some sort of routine and Eden</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
has started to take longer naps during the day and I can get some </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
other projects done now.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am starting slow with my jewelry as I don't think I will be able</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
to spend any longer sessions in my studio. But I will start to photograph</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
a bunch of ceramic necklaces, rings and earrings that I finished before she was born</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and aimed to list in my novaofsweden shop on etsy.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It will probably be a week or two before I get to it, to be honest.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'm on baby time now. :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Thank you for stopping by and have a fantastic day!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Actually I haven't blogged at all. <br />
<br />
I found that I have been trying to be more present. In the now. When we were getting married I almost forgot to enjoy the path leading up to our special day. I was so busy focusing on the one day...<br />
<br />
This time I want to make sure that I savor every precious moment of this journey.<br />
I have had a very easy pregnancy so far. No morning sickness, not really any back pain. Haven't gained too much (probably cause I already had some extra kilos when we started) and I am still able to bike to and from work every morning! I am loving every moment.<br />
<br />
We decided to not find out the sex. It will be a surprise. Can't believe I'm 7 and a half months now. I have a feeling time will fly and before we know it out little baby will be here with us.<br />
<br />
The bump is starting to get really big and time for studio is harder and harder to find. I will be putting the shops on vacation at the end of march so give myself more time to rest and prepare.<br />
<br />

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">In May it will have been a year since we left the US behind and set out to start a new life here in Sweden. Its been quite the journey. New home, new job, new city in a new country (for David at least). So somehow it feels really fitting that this May we will welcome a new life into our little family. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">We are so thankful to start this new chapter in our life. I cherish every day I get to experience being pregnant. Its amazing. Everyday my tummy grows bigger. I can feel the little one doing acrobats inside and I can't help to wonder if it's a little girl or a little guy doing flips. We decided that we wanted to be surprised so we didn't find out the sex on the ultrasound.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I have to apologize for not keeping up with my blog. I just had to focus on more important things... but I hope I will be able to share the rest of this journey with all of you.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Have a wonderful day my friends!</span><br />

Plus a number of ceramic studs and hoops!<br />

Working away on preparing the listings so keep your fingers crossed I can get it all done on time. I had forgotten how time consuming it is!<br />

Have a great Sunday <br />

I am rediscovering the countryside. Amazed by the openness and it's beauty. It's a different landscape than what I'm used to, ( me coming from up north). Its much flatter here but still amazing.

Soaking up some much needed sun. My hands are tanned golden from biking to work everyday but my legs are pale as ghosts... Luckily I found some new shorts today so I'm hoping that will do the trick!<br />
<br />
Tomorrow I'll be spending in the good company of one of my oldest friends and her husband. They are visiting for the weekend and I can't wait too see them!<br />
<br />
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!<br />
Love, tess<br />

</span></div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;">Gosh has it been that long ago since I blogged?</span></div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;">Things have been hectic around here. Mid February we went on our look and see trip to Sweden <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/novadesigns/6917494581/in/photostream">(click for pics)</a> and after that it's just been crazy with vet appointments, visa applications and other fun stuff that a large move like this means.</span></div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;">Yep, we're moving. Back to Sweden. Well back for me. For David it's probably new and slightly terrifying. He's been a trooper with his Rosetta stone and is expanding his Swedish vocabulary weekly.</span></div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;">The move will probably happen at the end of April so that doesn't leave us with much time to figure everything out, sell two cars and do a complete inventory of our home. Geez why did I have to buys o many stones... </span></div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;">I've bought a swedish flexshaft and replacement cable kit for my kiln. Got to take care of the important stuff you know :) I will be selling some of my other tools like drill press and vibro engraver. I'll probably do a blog post with images to show you. Hopefully my old tools can find a new home and we can get some extra cash for the move.</span></div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;">I got two wholesale orders for pinwheels that I have been working on lately. It's great. I have to admit I kind of like production work sometimes. Clears my head. I finally added a bunch of different colors to the collection. I think I am partial to the seafoam and orange. Which is your favorite color?</span></div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;"><br />
