Hello world! Whilst my little one is taking one of his short afternoon naps, I thought I'd hurry up and write a few lines here as it's been a while... This OOTD is the last pregnancy outfit we photographed, but I never got around posting it, the time just flew by! We shot this outfit probably in November or early December so I was already in my third trimester, getting towards the end of my pregnancy. By this stage, all I wanted to wear were comfy and warm sweater dresses! This dress I actually grabbed at my local thrift store, for only 2 €! I love the oversized fit of it and I'm sure I'm going to wear it even next year, for the colder weather. My little boy is already 2 months old! At first, I didn't have any time for myself or for my work on blog or youtube (good thing I had some pre recorded videos that I filmed in advance, so there wouldn't be too long of a gap between posting on my social medias! I really didn't want to neglect you guys who have been following me for all these years!) As my boy is getting bigger, we're slowly establishing some sort of a routine and he spends much more time naping, or awake, but not crying and instead exploring the world and the things that surround him with interest and always with a smile on his face. He's adorable and I could watch him for hours and spend a whole day interacting with him. These moments are so precious, I want to soak everything in! Even now, as I'm writing this post, I'm sitting next to him, as he's sleeping on my bed, and I watch him with a smile on my face and immense love in my heart!

It wasn't the happiest period as I wasn't able to visit my hairdresser in Croatia, and also, because of the pregnancy, I had to be careful of what I'm using to colour my hair!

Hi guys! The reason why I haven't been posting as frequently as usual is because I became a Mum! On 20th of January, 2017. I gave birth to my precious little boy, Sebastian Josip. ♥ I was very fortunate to have had a completely natural, non medicated childbirth. It was also rather quick (especially for a first time Mum! I was mentally preparing myself for a 20 hour labour, but I ended up having something like 5 hour labour and delivery!). I do want to go into more details regarding this life changing experience, and I'd like to make a video on that topic too, but as you'll understand, this will have to wait for a while, as I'm now fully dedicated to my newborn son, and his needs. I barely have any time left for myself, and when I do, I sleep, or eat...or take a shower. These first months are the most challenging, as the baby needs my full attention! My hubby is here to help me out 100% and we're basically alone in this new adventure of parenthood. But now I can say that having a kid was the best decision I've ever made in my life! He brings me so much joy and fills my heart with the love and warmth I've never experienced before. As I'm writing these lines, he's asleep and my hubby is also here to jump in in case he wakes up! I did prepare some pre-recorded videos for my youtube channel, as I knew, once the baby arrives, it'll be impossible for me to film at least for a couple of months until we set some kind of a routine :-) But don't worry, there's plenty of content coming every week on my channel & other social medias, and I'll also try to post here as frequently as I can! I'm still recovering from giving birth... Even though the whole labour and childbirth went pretty easily, the first couple of weeks of my post partum were so painful and way more challenging than I had expected! I always tought that after a natural childbirth you're "as good as new" in 2 days...what a surprise it was when I realized that this wasn't going to be the case with me :-/ I could barely even walk for almost 2 weeks, and even moving my body in the bed, from one side to another, was a nightmare! Physically, I felt like a train wreck, but at least emotionally I was filled with happiness, excitement and joy! I will also go into more details about my post partum recovery in a video that I'm planning to film in the near future. This is just a quick little update from me and Sebastian Josip :-) We're doing fine and we thank you all for the loveliest comments and well wishes that you left us on my facebook and instagram! I read all of them and they trully mean so much ♥ Thank you for all your love ♥♥
