My family in photos

 This is my family. From top :  my mother in law, my mother, my father in law, my father, my grandma (respect!) my brother in law, my young brother, my youngest brother and my love...

Not too big but sure big at heart.. Happy family day! Ho, those two kids that appear in every photo are mine :)

Yes and no

Big brother is a player. He does whatever he wants. Most of the time he is having the time of his life, after all, all he needs is a playmobil fireman in his hand and a firetruck or two...Now that he turned 3 he thinks he is superman at least. Sometimes I hold my head, trying to believe how is it possible that I'm a mother of two, being still such a needy little girl? I want to be the b e s t mom to my kids, I want to be a fun mom, I want to help them create amazing memories and to make them feel, I want to stay young  for them. What ever they want me to - I want to be able. Big part of my teen was music. I simply adored Pearl Jam and Nirvana and one more guy - Aviv Gefen. I remember reading an interview with him many years ago (...) and he was saying that his parents don't believe in curfew. Kids go to sleep when they want to, the fact that the sun is tired doesn't mean kids should go to bed. I was sooo jealous of him and his sister back then, all I wanted is to go to bed my time. Not sun time, neither parents time. My time. His parents were my heroes. So last night we found ourselves laying on the sofa, all three of us (little sister is not part of this story yet..) at  10 pm eating candies and watching The Voice with Aviv.

 A closure? I don't know,  to tell you my feeling? I'm not sure it was the best idea, but big brother sure had some good time. I'm not sure how to deal with this situation again, all I know is that would have made me very happy if my parents allowed me to watch T.V. at that hour when I was little. How do you deal with boundaries?

DIY - cookies mix in a box

Ever since I started to feed big brother with formula I knew this boxes are a treasure.  It took me 3 years to come with an idea.... As you all know I love to bake and baking chocolate chips cookies is like making  scrambles eggs in our home. From now to now. Not a big deal. Pinterest is full of great ideas of homemade  cake/cookies mix as a gift. This is my interpretation. 

I colored spray this formula box with a thin layer and let it dry. In the mean time I packed the ingredients those cookies need. I also added the egg because I'm off to give it in the next hour to my friend. Only thing she needs to add is butter and vanilla. If you want to be extra kind add a bottle of pure vanilla inside....

Of course you have to make the box pretty :)

And don't forget to write in few steps how to use your cute gift!

In a different matter remember the post about the gift I made for little sister when she wasn't feeling very well? I finely found the right framing to that gift! I love old school framing, simple yet beautiful!

Parenthood and another day of sick kids...

I really don't have any excuses for not posting beside - kids are sick again. I'm so tired so today the photos will tell you the story. fair?  

 It was a long day. There is a little bit more ..

And then it was 1/2 over. He went to sleep. She didn't.

Thanks god for PARENTHOOD  (the show, but also in life...) tonight at 22:00, one hour not to deal with my worries...not jealous at Crosby what he is going through.. :) see you all tomorrow with some new energy { hopefully.. } xo
