Last weekend we had a quick 24 hour stop in Malmo Sweden, we had a lot of big plans to get the train to Copenhagen, but when you get blown away by the beauty of one country you kind of lose track of time. Continue reading

Don’t be fooled by this cute happy face, this guy was really grumpy that it was so hot and bright and we dare take him out. Continue reading
Letting your baby develop at his own pace
I’ve found myself more often than not, pushing Arren. Pushing him to develop faster than he’s ready for, not letting him do things at his own pace. Continue reading

When dad’s take the reigns, things are always just a bit out of whack. Continue reading

^^ After bath Arren wondering if we’ve put him into something silly. Yes, baby boy we did. I will try to dress you in silly things until you’re 18. Continue reading
Being a Mombie, because of teething
Teeth…..wow, it takes a strong person to survive teething. When you’re younger you always think pulling an all nighter is so much fun, but let me tell you something….it’s horrible! Continue reading

^^ Yet again, Arren seemed to not care about the penguins. Continue reading
Why motherhood has made me beautiful
Becoming a mother is a life changing experience that changes us physically, but also emotionally. It makes you love more, see things more clearly and makes you wonder how little sleep can you have before you die of exhaustion? Continue reading

^^ We got lost trying to find the entrance to Noodhoek beach, but we stopped to take a look at this view.
^^ walks on Noordhoek beach, on the hottest windiest day. I’m getting really tired of having huge pores and sweating all the time. Its way to hot here.
^^ The previous photo Carl had a Trump hairstyle going on thanks to the wind. It was obscene! but you would never tell by this photo.
^^ soooo windy.
^^ Almost baby time!
^^ I asked Carl for a jumping photo, I forgot he somehow hurt his back while getting into bed and have been suffering from old person symptoms. Maybe he’s just absorbing all my pregnancy symptoms I’m suppose to be having.
^^ We tried to have a picnic on Sunday, but the wind and heat was just too intense for us! We rushed home and tried to cool of by drinking a lot of iced water and regret making our outside fire for food grilling.
^^ Feeding pillow! Can you believe Carl sewed this together for me, while I took a nap! Obviously I’ve got a great little seamstress on my hands here. I found this fabric and just loved it! I also found another orange-y African print fabric that I turned into little zipper pouches for my diaper bag. I’ve been getting really tired of all the cutesy, kitchy things that people gift you when they find out your having a baby. I don’t know why everything has to look so cheap and crap? or plastic? I’m so tired of seeing pooh bear things. Also trying to find anything that’s really gender neutral in this country is near impossible! I’m trying so hard to have a low impact child on the environment, but yet people seem to think that includes giving me bottles that actually still contains bpa, toys that were banned in all the first world countries and diapers that I wont be using. FRUSTRATING! Oh well! Our donations pile is just getting bigger and bigger, most of the stuff we can’t even donate to orphanages, because they don’t even accept it!
^^ Pretty little gingerbread house in the nicest light.
^^ Beach walks
Hi friends! How was your weekend? I can’t believe how soon it is till baby time. I’m so eager to get this labour over with! I’ve actually been having a great pregnancy, but the anticipation that any day now labour can start is killing me! I’m ready for my little baby! Did anyone else feel like this during the end of their pregnancy?
