Oh wow what a week!!! The end of year appointments started to come in this week and our days have been filled to the brim with to-do´s. I personally like the hustle and bustle of busy season but within reason, cause I no longer can be out all day and get things done. This is way to exhausting with three little children.

 

MEALS

I am actually very proud of myself cause I have cooked a lot this week. To be honest there are weeks were I am so tired and unmotivated and I just don´t want to cook and I also don´t know what I could make. If I ask my girls it is either noodle soup or pancakes. 

MONDAY – Sausage, Bread and Cheese

TUESDAY – Salmon and brokkoli with parmesan crust

WEDNESDAY – Butter noodles

THURSDAY – Ribs and oven potatoes

FRIDAY – Asian take-out

SATURDAY – Schnitzel and Salad

SUNDAY – BBQ at the Kindergarten – we had sausages and potatoe salad and a delicious slice of honey cake

 

FASHION

Only two of the many gorgeous looks I have worn this week. You can see all of them in tomorrows post. 

Summer sales on the H&M website as well as in stores have started and they have huge discount on almost all things Summer. If you want to spice up your wardrobe or you are going on vacation and want to shop for some cool summery pieces now is your turn.

ACTIVITIES

Thursday was our end-of-the-year playgroup excursion. We went to the farm we went last year to feed the cows and the rabbits and make our own butter.

 

My MIL and the little girls went out for breakfast on Friday and it was great. The weather was awesome and they had so many kids activities and a little playground and goats. They have been distracted the whole time and we could enjoy an undisturbed meal.

 

Friday afternoon is still reserved for swimming lessons. Four more to go and we might have an independant little swimmer.

 

On Sunday the yearly Kindergarten festival took place and it was a huge success with the kids although the temperatures have been very high and super exhausting for the little ones. 

 

MISC

striped pillow cover / brown linen pillow cover / rainbow pillow cover

I did a pillow refresh on my living room pillows but don´t tell my husband. He hasn´t noticed yet and I don´t plan on telling but I wanted to have some fresh pillow covers and I love the striped linen pieces. I also got some new pillows to put inside the covers cause the old ones have gotten a little flat. Everything is from H&M Home. In my opinion they have the prettiest throw pillows and covers no matter the season or the colors you are searching for. Also highly affordable.

Why is it that Black in the Winter months is such a dull color but in the Summer it comes in hot. I definitely love a Black dress much more during the hot Summer months. Maybe it is how well it pairs with all the other colors or how amazing it looks with bronzed skin. It is efforless and chic while not being to overpowering in color and appearance. There are tons of beautiful Black dresses out there so make sure to pick yours while you have. 

What kind of colors do you like to pair your black dress with – classy with white or beige or trendy with a popping color like red or royal blue ??!!

A „Purrfect“ Third Birthday Party…

After some months of back and forth we have landed on a kitty birthday party. We started with Ariel, the little mermaid and ended with a monkey birthday party but ultimately came back to cats. Our little one is not a very decisive kid and she mainly goes with the flow so I can only guess how hard this was for her but she loved it and was genuinely excited and happy.

 

Purrfect Kitty Birthday Party Decor

If you have been following along for a little or even long while you know how much I enjoy a theme and if I have one I go all out and by all out I mean ALL OUT!!!!. The table decor is mostly from Temu and / or SheIn (I can link as much as possible below). I started with a golden sequin table cloth and added a kitty table runner with black cats and paw prints all over. Kitty napkins are a true must if you want to throw a purrfect birthday party cause little kittens not only spill milk. I have also found these adorable cardbord cats as you can see on the vase here and I have added them to candle holder as well.

 

The main attraction – the birthday table was of course decorated with a huge ballon arch. Ballon arches have somehow become my trademark throughout the years but there is nothing that make bigger impact for little money than a ballon arch. Here you can find little paw details on the white ballons. Further I have gotten this huge Happy Birthday banner to pin under the ballon arch and cover up the paint color of the wall. Emilia and I also made little kitten cookies together. I got a cat head shaped cookie cutter and we decorated with sprinkles and chocolate drops.

Purrfect Kitty Birthday Cake

The cake was perfection. I have ordered a vanilla sponge cake with chocolate and strawberry buttercream (as requested) covered in a white layer of fondant with kitty ears, paws and a little tail. The pink and blush buttercream roses on top completed the cake it looked so adorable I honestly didn´t want to eat it at first, but we did and it was delicioius.

The glittery kitty Happy Birthday sign and the #3 birthday candle are from SheIn.

Purrfect Kitty Birthday Outfits

I have gotten her two outfits. The black and white striped kitty dress for her actual birthday and the pink tulle princess kitty dress for her birthday party a few days later. I think she loved the tulle dress more but both have looked super cute on her.

The lace kitty ears would make a great gift for a kids birthday party as well. They looked really cute and fit also great on grown-up heads.

I have been neglecting my posting the last couple of week but there was just so much happening behind the scenes and I have been so tired lately but today I am showing up and I am here for you guys. Recapping this very busy birthday week.

 

Someone partied to hard on her birthday and fell asleep on the floor the next day. This hasn´t happened in a long time. Still my little girl.

 

MEALS

Yeah that is such a thing – I have been really neglecting cooking this week and just throwing things together. 

We had salmon and broccoli with parmesan cheese on Thursday and I had a ton of stuff that would have expired very soon so I threw this together in a pan with some spices and onions. 

Our favorite Chinese restaurant has closed this and next week and I am not happy about it.

FASHION

The weather here has been more than awful. I did not wear much cute things this week. The outfit with the yellow skirt was definitely a favorite.

H&M and C&A does have so many adorable Summer clothes these days. I have found tons of stuff for me and our little baby and I also got the cutest blue and white outfits for the big girls for photo day.

ACTIVITIES

On Wednesday we went to the swimming pool cause it was the birthday girls wish to go swimming.

MISC

The moments were our little baby just falls asleep on us have become very rare so this definitely had to be documented.

 

It has been birthday week of our middle child over here this week and I have to admit I am really sad. She turned three on Wednesday and somehow this is such a huge thing for me. She was always the little one and very often pretty sick and needed lots of care and attention and now she is three and claims to be a big girl and is proud of herself for being out of diapers and starting Kindergarten in the Fall. 

My mom surprised her with a unicorn costume and she was so happy about it. She giggled the whole time and was totally mesmerized by the big unicorn in our garden. I just love how amazing the world looks through children´s eyes.

It was Kindergarten shooting day this week and the setup was the cutest I have ever seen. I got matching outfit for the girls in creme and blue hues and can´t wait how the photos turned out. The girls did so well and had so much fun.

The huge bridge in the background here is the Carl´s Bridge – one of Prague´s big monuments

My husband and I (and of course our littlest) went on another short city trip today. Prague is one of our favorite cities and we have already been three times but there is so much to do we will definitely be back for a forth time. You can find new things to look at and eat and do everytime you visit.
