eating some apple or making some pie with them...

Happy Mother´s Day

Camila made this paper vase with flowers to me ( with some Dad´s help) , she saw this project on a kid´s magazine and then decided that this would be my Mother´s Day present. So sweet, my little girl, thank you, I love you!

Playing outside ...


Wishing you all had a great Mother´s Day!With you daughters and mothers and friends and aunts and so on and so forth...

Welcome May!

I´ve been spending these Autumn days at home, cooking a lot, organizing and taking care of my little almost 2 month baby.


And outside I see the beautiful nature offering lots of amazing fruits , I wish I had more time to pick them all up and maybe make some jam and give to my friends... Well, not this time.



This is the view from my window, I can hear two or three blue birds ( I don´t know their names) playing or trying to get some juicy bite from the fruits, I like that!

Almost everyday there´s a blue sky that I wanted to take pictures so I can look at them at night and I can remember how great was this day...

The coconut tree is full of these little fruits and squirrels and birds share the food in the morning, peacefully...

And this little boy is growing day after day and I know I will miss every minute of these days...



Wishing you a lovely start to this beautiful month: May

These days

Tiny little fingers... this is what I´ve seen all these days


This little boy is growing day by day, he sleeps like an angel and sometimes he has that smile that suddenly appears on his face, so cute!


And I am in need of this, a lot!
COFFEE!
To keep me awake in the evenings, mornings...

But then, at the end of the day I just think one thing:

"Today was a good day"

God bless all the little ones , the big ones , all the loved ones! And I wish you a wonderful week and thank you for stopping by!

César

Hi everyone, I am back after a couple weeks and here is Cesar, our new baby boy! He arrived on March 6th and we are at home, learning lots of new things again and Camila has been fantastic as a big sister helping us on whatever she can.

Here we are surrounded by diapers , phone calls, gifts and cryings !!!

The Autumn season is almost here and I can feel that the breeze is chilly and the sun is shy in the afternoons when I look out of the window as I nurse my baby...

Wishing you a beautiful week , with much love...

Summer Days

I am sorry for not coming here for a while, it´s been quite busy and... hot! These days have been really hot but I can´t complain, I like Summer!!!

We had a visitor last week in our garden: a big sized lizard!!!
And our weekend was spent at the seaside, on my brother´s boat, eating fruits and barbecue...
Oh, by the way, today it´s my brother´s birthday so I want to wish him all the good things in life, health and love, always!!!


We had such a good time with our family spending some quiet time, admiring the nature around us.

And now I want to show you how big is my belly , I am 8 months pregnant!!

Wishing you a wonderful week to all of you!!!!

joy of a new life

Each and every day my belly is growing!!! I had forgotten how it was , the only thing that bothers me now is at sleeping time , I´ve got no position to do so...

Anyways... I am so very excited and happy for this little boy that´s growing here inside and I´ve been making some things for him.

I went to my old books and magazines to take a look and I found out this pretty little banner that I made in 2 hours ( the time I spend choosing fabrics are the longest!) and finally I came up with this blue one!! It´s by Alicia Paulson ´s book and I really adore her and her creations!
Some friends had made beautiful handmade things for my baby and I am keeping all of these treasures in a small old fashioned trunk...

These onesies came from my Mom , pretty, hum? I like the pretty little alligators!


I guess I stopped sewing before going to Japan last month and now that I started making these banners I feel centered, something that keeps me healthy and focused... I needed that! It´s my second pregnancy but all those fears and doubts that comes with motherhood are back again...Plus , this strange feeling of the possibility of loving two children, will I love this one as much as I love my little girl???

I think it´s just a matter of time to get all the answers , right?

Wishing you all a joyful week with less rain , please...

Thank you for your patience!!!

Weekending

We went to visit a new place , a great tip from my blogger friend Shi , thank you dear friend! From our house it´s about 45 minutes by car and we were surprised for the good food, lots of things for kids to do like poney riding, a lake, mini zoo and playground. The next time we will take Camila ( today she went out to the beach with my brother).
This first picture is a traditional Brazilian food, it was crunchy and sooo delicious!! Polenta frita , Pastel de Carne and Mandioquinha


For dessert I chose these yummies... Pineapple, strawberry and Romeu and Juliet sweet which is very typical here.

This is the restaurant...

The view from the restaurant where you can see the lake and the owner´s house


This is the entrance

The property has many kinds of animals everywhere...


And a cozy chair to get some rest after all those delicious food!

Wishing you a wonderful and joyful week!!! thank you for taking your time here.
