It is very in the same wavelenght with my work and life. I was an interior and food stylist and now I live in the mountains with dogs, cats, horses and goats cultivating my gardens and writing about food and earth product….maybe we will meet each other one day. For the moment you seem quite busy with 3 kids (very tender the photos of your last one) and me quite busy with my animals (my children are 25 and 28 years old)!! But I believe that there is always a way to create something together when one share the same point of view. All the best Maia

Do you mind me asking what lens you’ve used for these shots? I’m planning to get a few lenses to take shots of the baby with my Canon 1000D, but have no idea what works for which shots. LOL.

My baby girl just turned one a couple of weeks ago. You are so incredibly lucky to have such great friends. I was making dinner for my family the day I came home from the hospital after a c-section. The food sounds amazing. I will be making the chili this week. Congrats on your little sweetie.

Congrats 🙂

I felt like quite the failure when my desire to have my dessert catering business ended when I realized how encompassing being a mom is and that it was the job I wanted, being a mom. I still love to be in the kitchen but now it is mostly for my family 🙂 Congrats again.

Reading this post makes me think, “two kids just doesn’t seem enough:)”

Thank you for sharing your journey with us. I am about to embark on a similar one and it has been so helpful to hear how it went from your perspective. Congratulations!

It reminds me of when my own little girl was first born, and how I felt, and what life was like. So incredibly precious, and tiring, and all that amazement. And feeling like – hey, I’m breastfeeding so I can eat all the chocolate I want!
Lovely. Thank you for sharing.

It was delightful to read this post as I just had my seventh baby four months ago and just recovering myself after a rocky and difficult start. Xxxxx

Three is such a magnificent juggle, isn’t it? I have learned more from a third than any other, if only because one can no longer tag team! This is a beautiful and wonderful (and, okay, slightly chaotic!) experience. I wouldn’t trade it for anything. I think you are spot-on in spending your energy, finding a new normal. It will come, and it won’t look precisely like what you expected, and it will be better, even than you could have imagined.

And dinner will find its way, in due time. Until then, to good friends, generous and kind.
