Dear Diary

"Auntie" Kim came to visit last weekend - it was great fun!

Me and my Mommy want her to move back! 

Toy box

Did you think we we´re going to let our child grow up without a joda doll?? Of course not! Who would teach her the way of the force?!

Display

This is another trinket Matt brought back from Japan. It was actually for me, it´s a heart shaped prayer sign that wishes for a happy relationship. But right now it´s residing in Auroras display shelf. I am sure she wishes her parents to have a happy relationship as well.

Auntie Sarah is getting married in September. Auntie Sarah has asked me to make her wedding cake. Auntie Sarah has send me the link to a certain blog for inspiration. Auntie Sarah has scared me for life. This woman, I call her crazy cake lady, posts about her baking adventures and by the looks of it also has made a little business out of it. It´s beyond insane but go see for yourself. 

The Blog. 

Anyway I saw these babyshower cookies and thought they we´re cute. Plus I´ve got a baby shower bake assignment coming up. I´m going to go for cupcakes though, since I need to practise for the wedding anyway. ...Oh yeah and also because I am not insane.

Closet

Germanys next Topmodel has been chosen. How can you be not even a year old and act like this as soon as you see a camera? Anywho... I actually took this picture to show off her lovely scarf which Kim made for her. She is taking a sowing class now and this is the first thing she made by herself at home. And she thought of Aurora, aww! I am so jealous! It´s got little elephants on the one side as you can see and white/blue stripes on the other. Plus I love the shirt and the scarf together. I am a bit of a mixed-patterns-phob but I think these two look well together. I wish I could pull the kind of style off that Aurora has. Am I old and out of style already? I didn´t expect it to go so fast.

Toy box

These foam plates with letters are nothing special. They are available basically everywhere from toy stores over drug stores to grocery stores. Every kindergarten and every household probably has them. But I was a tiny bit proud of my picture so I figured I´d mention them to be able to show it off.

Never the less they are a big hit with Aurora. Not so much for the reason we thought they would be though. Maybe they actually taste like blueberry and such and it´s like that high pitched noise that they use in England to keep teenagers from loitering. You know the frequency you loose hearing for as you grow older. So maybe these letters have a very yummy flavor that only babies can taste.
