A surprise gift from the best hubby in the world: YSL Arty ring

Confessions - The kid thing

I wrote this really heartfelt long post about my first couple of weeks as a mother, but instead of my rambling (and the fact that I'm too tired to proofread) I'll leave you with a quote from the movie "The Back-Up Plan" instead (which was really crappy by the way):

Stan: What's it like, the whole kid thing?
Playground Dad: It's awful, awful, awful.
Then a small moment happens, that's so magical. that makes it all worthwhile.

Playing interior designer

As the little one seem to be taking his time, I'm desperately trying to preoccupy myself so not to go mental by the waiting. So I usually end up shopping. This is one of my cheaper buys.

Rearranging and decorating the apartment is another fave past times these days. A wannabe interior designer trying making an effort perfecting the apartment before the baby's arrival. Pretty sure these things will not even enter my mind once the baby is born.

Confessions of a pregnant woman - week 40: The art of waiting

I really haven't perfected the art of waiting. Think I'm slightly going mad!

Love is in the air

So many celebrity weddings took place this weekend, but I must say that Kate Moss just outshone them all. Beautiful: 

Takes me back to my own wedding two years ago. May not be a Galliano design, but I still absolutely love my wedding dress:

Travel bug

It's that time of year when my notebooks are usually full of to-do list, to-buy list and etc, when my bedroom has been turned upside down due to packing or repacking, when traveling books are spread around the floor, open pages of some exciting destination, and where my hubby is reassuring me that we have all the necessary documents such as passport, hotel confirmation and etc. Instead, my hubby is cleaning the bathroom, setting up extra shelves for baby products and I'm am playing the "perfect" housewife and preparing him lunch.

Around this time last year, we had already drawn our credit cards in three different countries. This year the closest thing I've ever come to crossing the Norwegian border is doing some baby shopping in our neighboring country Sweden, which is about an hour away with car.

For someone who religiously loves traveling, it's a bit of an understatement to say how difficult it is for me to stay at home this summer. The itch is definitely present. Unfortunately I can't do anything about it at the moment, but wait until it passes.

I am however venturing out on a different adventure this year which makes it all worth it. Priorities eventually change and right now I need to focus on something much more important that my monthly visit from the travel bug.

But I will certainly be welcoming this type of bug every month and I'm hoping the baby will catch it too. No need for medical treatments here.

Last year's summer destination: Roadtrip in California
