The little things

Thank you for your well wishes of our pregnancy, for not turning this blog into a babyblog, I will post sometimes a few things about babystuff.
Today I wanted to share some little things that made my day.
my new gold chain and leather bracelet from Massimo Dutti, wich is my new arm candy love.

New Iphone cover, my Iphone was getting severely scratched.
Yesterday I saw this pretty and simple black Iphonecover and it turned out to
 cost only 2 euros. It made me happy, functionality and price wise.

I bought an Ikea frame for the pretty portrait of my friend Masha.
She went to live in Mexico, where this picture was taken also.
When I see her happy picture, it makes me smile.

This gold glitter jacket from Zara, that will come out handy for my growing belly.
I do want to dress up nicely and try to take good care.

Back again...we have an anouncement

Dear all, life is full of surprises, especially for me 15 weeks ago, i happily found out that I was pregnant!
We told our closest relatives in the beginning, but now that we passed the 3 months we can say it out loud finally!
Maybe you have noticed that sometimes i was feeling a bit sick and didn´t blog that day, well now you know why. I started feeling better since a week, the nauseas are disapearing and I am full with energy.
I am happy to read many other bloggers have babies, children or are pregnant themselves and of course I am interested to know about their experiences and advises.

Here is a little image of the baby in my belly.

We still don´t know yet is it´s a boy or a girl, but I can tell you for sure I am looking forward to decorate the nursery!

My cake, and my dog.



I made this cake tonight and loved it! I'm going to take some time to perfect the recipe before I share it, along with practicing how to frost using marshmallow as icing! I used coconut flour as a base and like it more then almond flour, for deserts. Has anyone cooked with coconut flour much? What did you make?


See my naughty dog? She's been eating my goods off the counter like a bad-dog. My almond loaf of bread, my blue berry muffins... great danes, I tell you there trouble!


I think I need to have a serious talk with my dog.

*Take a Deep Breathe*

...because this bathroom will leave you breathless.


Dear Carrie from Hazardous Design, I could cry looking at this bathroom it's so stunning. Every detail in the wallpaper, the mirror, vanity, the little monogrammed towel and mostly the chandelier. It's ridiculous! How did you dream this up? I'm so inspired now. So I really love how the wall paper is not floor to ceiling and shared the wall with a shiny wainscoting. It's a powerful print and you played it well!
Bravo.






DIY nightstand

Tadaaa...we finally finished it this weekend. This is the nightstand I found along the road a couple of months ago. I am very happy with the outcome, and it costed me only a total 24 euros for the primer, paint and ring pulls. I enjoyed doing this...up to the next!
