julia-4052 julia at 21 months – i love this picture of julia, maybe because she’s happily posing for me, and i think is because she now knows new orleans is our new home. she had a difficult beginning in our new city, a lot of tantrums, nightmares and tears..but all of a sudden she’s back to herself, to being naughty and funny, and she’s been a great buddy! ♡

(we found this mural in downtown new orleans by street artist kelsey montague and immediatly felt our moods lifted :)

julia-3952 julia at 20 months – she literally copies everything i do, these days – from drinking my coffee to polishing my nails, but the latest achievement is taking pictures with my phone, maybe next she’ll be instagramming! ♡

julia-3852 julia at 20 months – our first week in new orleans, i can only imagine what goes through her mind when i try to explain that we moved here, or when we’re at the grocery store and i say ‘let’s go home” and this is not the home she knows. to make things a little harder…we went on an ‘iPad cleanse’, it was just too easy to entertain her with the ipad when i needed to pack and get organized for the move. now we’re on a sticker-playdoh-painting-reading-strolling repeat mode.

some days have been really good, exciting and fun. but some days have been hard too. i’ve been trying to be extra-patient and understanding with her, and giving her lot’s of cuddles ♡

we finally made it to new orleans after being stranded in provo due to tropical storm joaquin. we’re sad to leave our friends in turks and caicos, but really looking forward to our new life in nola.

bare with me as we settle down and take it easy the first few days, i’ll be posting some snaps on instagram. in the meantime, these are a few of the things i’m excited to experience during our first weeks in the city. kindred-studios

kindred studios – a gym where i can exercise with julia, i’m specially excited to try their spinning classes. blanc-beauty-bar blanc beauty bar – the coolest beauty salon i’ve seen, after the move, i’m in need of some pampering.
