her introduction to donuts and first chocolate milk – she licked all the chocolate and left the donut for me. also, luckily the milk tasted like delicious creamy milk, with a hint of chocolate…we don’t want any more chocolate addicts in the house (like me)!

and some news

we’re moving, friends, yes, again, and this time to north california – and berkeley it is! we’ve known for a couple of weeks now, but to be honest it’s been so hectic on this side of the hood, that i hadn’t made it a point to sit, plan and share.

if you haven’t heard about it, it’s where the university of berkeley is located – a city in the east shore of the san francisco bay, actually directly opposite to the golden gate!! they say the weather in the summer is similar to typically mediterranean, but with foggy nights and mornings. and if you know me, i’ve been doing my research around instagram and blogger’s tips, and there’s some really cool restaurants, coffee shops and more.

we’re sad to leave this amazing city, so lucky to have lived here for the past months and experience mardi gras as locals too. sometimes life surprises us, we’ve been really happy in new orleans, but we’re always excited for new adventures.

i still have a lot to share about our life here and our favorite spots, so bare with me and follow along here for live updates.

ps – i guess i’ll be putting these into practice again

julia-4952julia at 23 months –  argh! where does the time go…what do you mean she’s almost 2?!?! needless to say christmas was fun and has a whole new meaning, and entertaining, with julia around. i love that she is old enough to enjoy the expectation of opening gifts, but is still zero demanding, and grateful with anything she was gifted ♡

julia-4752julia at 22 months –  last week at audubon park, we love going there, for a stroll, chasing squirrels, checking out the ducks on the lagoon, or spending at least an hour at the playground! the other day we found this unexpected swing amidst the trees, and of course, she jumped right in ♡
