Hello winter!
After a very mild winter without any snow or ice at all, look at the view that greeted us when we opened the curtains this morning! Even though it was only a thin layer of snow, everything was white!
The children were very excited of course. We put on their clothes and at 7.30 a.m. they were already playing outside. They had a great time until noon when most of the snow had melted.
The rest of the day was very relaxing. I made wentelteefjes and even managed to take a nap. I also made a good start with the travelcot and a matching blankie. Hopefully that project will be finished tomorrow.
The day ended appropriately with a fire in the garden.
Oh, and the obligatory 39 weeks-bellyshot of course :)
What a fun blog - I LOVE your dolls! Do you sell them? I also loved seeing your tummy - my daughter is due in 2 weeks - she looks much the same as you! She is having a boy - my first grandchild and I can hardly stand the waiting! Congrats to you on your wee one and good luck! Nan

Living near the coast means less snow for us. White landscapes always looks so peaceful.
Take care Mirre!!

It seems like everyone has snow except us! Its on our UK news all week, how the snow storms are upsetting everyones lives all over, and we havent had any, well, a flurry for about 3 minutes on friday, but that hardly counts! I am very jealous! You are so good finding so much time to craft for your baby, I am still decorating, ick! (I hate painting at 36 weeks pregnant). I have itchy fingers to make too.

We have had snow this morning, too. Maybe we even get to use the sled this afternoon since it has been snowing on and off all morning. That would be the first time this "winter".

wow i haven't had wentelteefjes for such a long time. i must mention it to mum tomorrow. perhaps they will be on the menu for lunch. unless louis puts his order in before me and then it will be poffertjes (excuse any bad spelling).
love the belly - can't wait to find out who is going to come out of there!

You look so ready! I love the little stove you have in your garden! It's great when those relaxing play outdoor days go with the kids! Best wishes for you in the next days :)

een onverwachte winterpret ! de kinderen zijn hier erg enthousiast en dat in hun paasvakantie, joepie!
Wat dat buikje van je betreft, dat is net zoals je kamer helemaal klaar. Succes !!
De babykamer is trouwens fantastisch geworden, en wat leuk dat je toch nog je matrouschka's gebruikt hebt.
liefs
