Little Footsteps in the Big World

 

My husband was playing with our toddler and I was holding our newborn when we talked about our days in Ljubljana the other day. How we miss the city. How we miss living there, to put it correctly. Then it seems that we're not the only ones missing the city. Yesterday before coloring, our toddler picked out one set of crayons out of her several sets and said to me "we bought this one in Slovenia!", and I remember vividly that first day when we got there and got her some crayons in Hofer supermarket on our street. Ljubljana was not just a great city for us adults, it was a cool city for the toddler too. If you have a chance to spend several days in Ljubljana with your kids, here are some of our favorite activities to do in the city: The zoo. But not just an ordinary zoo. We're not too much of a zoo people. My husband don't go to the zoo (unless I spend hours begging him), he hates seeing animals in captivity. I don't love zoo for the same reason, but I c...

Happy new year! It's officially my first post in 2017, but also officially the beginning of our trips with two children. We're parents of two now! My newborn joined us in the morning of January 2nd this year, made us a family of four now.

Her first trip will be in the end of March when all four of us will be going to Indonesia. My husband, our toddler and I have gotten our tickets so now we just need to add our newborn to become a lapchild into my ticket. Well, for that we'd need her to own a passport. And for that, ...

The holiday season is here! I bet you're as excited as I am! Christmas is just around the corner and 2017 is coming real quick. As there's a huge chance I might be staying in the hospital during Christmas day (I'm due to give birth on Christmas eve), I decided to get my holiday gifts for the loved ones early this year. We don't usually exaggerate on Xmas gifts in our family, we exchange pretty little things, most of the times personalized, sometimes home made; then gather and have lunch together. Not everyone in our family is a traveler, but I've gathered some ideas of affordable holiday gifts for family members (or friends!) who love to travel. Personalized travel calendar What's more useful to start a new year than a calendar? That's my choice for some family members this year, including my mother in law. For a lady her age, she travels quite often. So I pick 12 best photos of her on trips with our babygirl, and ordered a personalized small on-table ca...
