  • We're back home and really just spending time at home, catching up in the garden and in the house, trying to cross things off a list that has had to wait during the busy busy school year. I'd so love to have a cleaner, clearer, un-cluttered home by back-to-school...
  • Buon giorno Costa Smeralda! #lastdayinparadise #dontwannaleave #malhotrasinsardegna2017
  • Today was just one of those perfect days. The kind we'll look back on in the dead of the dark Swedish winter ahead. The kind making us teary with gratitude for a holiday like this in our favourite place on earth. Perfection. From the first dip and the kids' swimming lessons in the pool this morning to a looong lovely afternoon at our favourite beach, dinner at the pizzeria on our way home, and a skinny dip in the dark after the kids were down. 👌🏼 #malhotrasinsardegna2017
  • This little crew tho! We had them close together (40 months between Alec and Léonie) and it has been pretty intense at times with three small kids to take care of. But it's getting easier all the time, and the joy they have in eachother is such a gift and makes all the hard times worth it. #malhotrasinsardegna2017
  • Swimming lessons in paradise. #malhotrasinsardegna2017
  • Swimming lessons in the foreground and fishing in the background. We're spending the morning by the pool. Poor Louis can only spend a couple of minutes in the water at a go before he starts shivering and shaking (because too thin) so he's in and out all day. #malhotrasinsardegna2017
  • Afternoon water fights... #malhotrasinsardegna2017
  • Popsicle break. I was out with a headache most of today so Sumit and the kids spent the day at home by the pool practicing their swimming. #malhotrasinsardegna2017
  • Alec & Sumit. Out for a swim. #malhotrasinsardegna2017
  • Burgers and fries and a toast to 🇺🇸 this evening, since our Alec is actually kind of American. And then this amazing peachy sunset. It's so still, there's a sailboat just gliding by, and by Pevero below, a couple of jet-skis are weaving through the yachts. Enormous Dilbar (the world's largest privately owned yacht) is still anchored there, making all the other (actually massive) yachts look teeny. #malhotrasinsardegna2017 #dilbar
