Vacation with the girls!!

I don't know about you, but I'm in a vacation state of mind! Summer vacation is still a couple of weeks away, but luckily I had a mini vacation planned with a friend of mine and our three little diva's. And oh my, going on vacation with three little girls is just crazy! It was fun, it was wild, it was hectic and it sure was hot! It's been a while since I experienced 95 degrees out, so it definitely took some getting used to again! Throw three little energy explosion in the mix to run around after and you have a trip to remember! Haha!

95 degrees obviously meant a lot of swimming! Charlotte loved this little water spray thingy. So much that she now actually loves to takes showers! She always took baths before this trip because she was terrified of the water falling down on her head. This fun little thing definitely changed that!

We stayed at a vacation park that had a lot of activities for kids, which was a lot of fun for the girls! One of our favorite activities was face painting! Charlotte chose to be a butterfly and it was such a fun experience! If you have a little girl and you have the opportunity do get her face painted, go for it! Charlotte couldn't stop pretending to fly. She BECAME the butterfly! Haha! She looked at herself in the mirror for such a long time that she eventually had to make place for the girl that got her face painted after her. It was adorable to see!

The park also had a small petting zoo which is always a lot of fun! Charlotte loves animals and she loves to be around them. Unfortunately I have pretty bad allergies, so that makes pets pretty much impossible in our household. So we love to jump at the oppertunity to cuddle us some sheep and bunnies!

We had a few wonderful days together. But at the end of each day I just had to sit down and get me a proper coffee! I...NEEDED..IT!

So how about you? Are you already on your summer vacation countdown?

Mommy Weekend!

Well, that was it for our summer vacation. We're back to work and it's been so chilly and rainy here the last couple of days that it's starting to look a lot like fall already! But thanks to a friend of mine I had another fun weekend to look forward to. She booked a hotel for us as an early birthday present so we could go on a much deserved shopping trip! We had a blast! We went for coffee and wine, we went out to dinner and we set a pretty generous shopping budget for ourselfs. Just having fun without stressing over price tags so much. I could get used to that! Haha! But it was also my first weekend away from Charlotte. It was nice just focussing on myself for a change, but I did miss her like crazy. Everywhere I looked there seemed to be little curly blonde girls running around and it made me wish she was there with me. But that's beeing a mom I guess. Always wishing you had a little more time for yourself, but missing those little terrors when you actually do! Anyway, I thought I'd share some shots from my little shopping weekend and the cuteness I purchased. Now it's getting back to seriousness, hard work and saving money again. Wish me luck! :)
