Home decorating

I am very visual , I think in images and that's why colours and beautiful pictures, objects and anything visual can make me very excited. For our house decoration I collect pictures to get inspired, so we can decorate the house more and more as we had envisioned.

Inspiring website: La Flotte a blog about home life and creativity.

I love natural materials and I love people who are creative with natural materials. Like Heidi La Flotte. She can make beautiful things from almost anything. Very inspiring and it just makes me happy to look at all the beautiful pictures on her Blog!
I can't wait to see more!

Greece may 2011, Zakynthos

Jasha's first holiday! Weeks in advance I started packing and making lists. What to bring, what NOT to forget. The first time it were not my clothes and stuff that took most of the space in our suitcases :-). No Jasha is pretty high maintenance (Read: Requiring much time and many products to keep his appearance at the current level) when it comes to needing lots and lots of stuff, and thats OK. The flight went perfectly fine, Jasha entertained the whole plain by laughing, dancing, playing hide and seek and just by being a baby. It's amazing to watch how people react on babies! People from all places, ages, sexes and religion react the same. Sometimes I suspect babies to be the bridge between people. They make it easy to smile at people, talk to people and approach one another! So little and so much influence. It's amazing. Just the other day I was sitting on a outdoor cafe with a friend of mine. Jasha was watching people. From one moment to the other everyone around us was sitting with their hand above their heads initiated by Jasha. Jasha was psyched about his ability to make everyone raise their hands. And made them do it over and over again ;-). Tooo funny! Well back to Greece. It was wonderful. We left al the baby-routines at home and just went with the flow ( tip). Jasha did great and even slept in his stroler, which he normally never does.

Although just laying next to the pool was nearly impossible with our little rockclimber!

With a baby you are pretty much grounded to nearby places, so we found a beautiful old church some where hidden between restaurants and plastic chairs. But why does nobody pay attention?

Our new friend, Jasha's friend. Jasha is drawn to all kind of animals. He sits in his stroller jumping up and down when he sees a cat or a dog. He starts jelling and his hands wave from side to side. He must, must have their attention. Cats are just not that into the whole theater, they prefer seriousness and elegance :-). Jasha definitely not.

It has been a while

Seems like a lifetime, because a lot has happend over the last two years. I became a mom, need I say more? A whole different perspective, but WONDERFUL!
