Bath time

a big bed for a big girl

Annabel has outgrown her little baby crib, so today we got her a new big bed! I had a great time setting it up with things from my shop. The bedframe we found a while ago in 'de Kringloopwinkel'. This is what her room looked like before.

Magical days

op shop finds

I bought some real treasures today! Especially the feather filled ski suit is my favourite. Oscar's ready for next winter :-)

Spring and Swing

Carnaval

Annabel had to be dressed up to go to school today. She wanted a snowwhite costume, but as they all were sold out, ì told her she was a little-red-riding-hood-princess!

Oscars party

A few weeks ago we had a party to celebrate Oscars birth. It was a wonderfull sunny afternoon!

back to work

Tomorrow I have to go back to work, after being at home for the past 5 months. A lot has happened since, with Oscars birth as the main event :-)! After 3 months he has grown alot and is no longer a fragile newborn...so I guess he's ready for daycare. Its time to step back into the real world, trying to figure out the new me; a fulltime working mother of two!!

winter boots

I made her stand in the middle of the street to take a good shot of her new boots. She did NOT like it!

Birth Card

The card I made for Oscar.
This is the one I made for Annabel

Meet Oscar

This is Oscar, born on November 4th. I'm in love!

waiting

I've got exactly 5 days to go untill my due date. So we are just hanging around the house,acting silly and trying not to stress over the delivery.

'Stadsmussen'

These are some of the illustrations I made for 'De Prijs van de stad Hasselt' an illustrating competition. I already entered it 4 years ago, and got nominated, this time unfortunatly, I didn't get selected.
To enter, you have to make a book for children aged 2-7y. My design is called 'Stadsmussen' and tells a story (without words) about animals who live in the city, for really young kids.

Baking class

Up to this point I've always used recipes out of books or from the internet to bake. But I actually would love to learn it properly, so my sister and I started a baking course. It's really fun and the cakes I've brought home so far are absolutely delicious. Normally I'm not really a fan of these kind of cakes, but it was suprisingly yummy!! :-)
