Part II

Little princess is having parties like a famous baby. A party a day takes your sorrow away... I think this is the way it is!

I simply love making this all for her... the decorating, the baking and all the visitors... although it´s exhausting too.

Yummy peach-nut cupcakes with mascarpone topping

Missy got a supercute coat from her uncle. She put it on herself and went to the mirror right away. Unfortunately I missed this most adorable grin on her face as she looked at her from all sides.

Love,

Mama

2nd Birthday celebrations get started

It was such a joy to see Miss Lina with this yummy cupcake. She is not the biggest eater at all and so I´m truly happy even when she is nibbling heartly.

This girl of mine is still nursing with great passion and I still love those quite moments only belonging to us. When she is cuddling in my lap she is still and relaxed, totally enjoying and taking a break.

Whe Lina is in high spirits, sad, tired or hurt this is the best way to calm her down and energize.

Max asked a lot if it was only Lina´s birthday and when it would be his turn. I told him he has to wait until November and he was totally fine with this answer. We also had a talk about the decoration for his big day as I try to - really - avoid the obligate car one. I made different suggestions eg dinosaurs and he liked it. 

So I said: "Ok Max. So you want dinosaurs for your birthday? Can I make it?"
Max: "No mama... cars of course!"

Hmm?

Love,

Mama

Vow renewal

This evening we were celebrating the 30th wedding day of a lovely couple... hubby´s aunt and uncle. It was such a fun and romance party and we were happy they had invited the four of us. As sometimes it is pretty exhausting to join such events with two toddlers it was not this time. 

They had a drawing and toy corner for the children as there was suitable food too... in addition enough space and an anyway present noise and fuss so we were not prominent, haha!

We left the party when a storm was coming up but until then it was great and entertaining. Thank you for the invitation!

 Miss Lina´s fashion faux pas... I know... but cute anyway

This boy was climbing on tree trunks and I could not help but recognize how grown up he is now... awww... baby come back!

Love you so,

Mama

Summer day

This little girl was thrilled by this huge bug living in our garden... and I was so proud of her gentle soul treating this beetle so well and observing him attentively.

Had lovely visitors today... I think both my babies are awaiting the time Emelie will join their play. Oh... and I could squish Lina´s face when she is squinting and calling "Emmi baby!".

Lovely day,

Mama

Felix

... fortunately he was not angry about Miss Lina who was riding his bike without a thought to share. I think these are the first results of having a big brother, ha!

Love you honeybunny,

Mama
