Hello and Happy New Year 2023 to you!
I still have a few outfits from November and December here. The outfit diary has been around for over a year now (I’ve linked the previous posts below). I think it’s cool to look back – and also really great that some of my favorite outfits work well with and without a baby bump.
This was great in November and December:
♥ I finally got around to fixing some clothes that had been in the appropriate pile for a while. One of them is the purple dress with the flowers, which you will see more of in a moment. So nice to rediscover a few favorite pieces!
♥ I really liked Advent! Finally Christmas decorations again (last year we simply left them out due to the stress of moving), every morning the advent calendar joy, lots of new Christmas carols in Oskar version, a visit to the Christmas market…
♥ Shortly before Christmas, the DIY fever really got hold of me again… I painted windows and made lots of stars out of wooden beads, macrame yarn and sandwich bags. That was so much fun!
♥ I was out in the evening! First I put Jonas to bed as normal (he soon woke up again, but then continued to sleep with Sven in the stretcher) and then went to a pub with my girlfriend. Once again having all the attention in a conversation and not having an eye on the children at the same time – that felt really good! Maybe I just have to trust myself more often.
♥ The nine of us spent Christmas Eve at home for the very first time. It’s really cool that this works in terms of space.
And this is what we look forward to in January:
♥ First get fit again… hopefully very quickly!
♥ Then hopefully we can make up for the planned New Year’s Eve visit.
♥ Otherwise, I’m really looking forward to a few normal weeks and a bit more everyday life after all the illness/Advent/Christmas action.
