We've been having a wonderful, relaxed summer in Berlin, with a few getaways within Germany, lots of family, friends, fleamarkets, enjoying good food and company and, unfortunately, almost no sleep.

We are two weeks away from a whole new situation, with our lovely (lovely!!) au pair Lily leaving and mini-me starting daycare with a wonderful older Lady and four great other kids. I am split into two when it comes to emotions about this, so happy we are moving on and so, so sad that mini-me is growing up and getting independent. I already know that he will truly enjoy spending half of the day with other kids, going on adventures and testing his bounderies.

My tiny baby has grown into a charming socializer, my hormones are pretty much gone and I am ready to move on, to start being myself again besides being a mother and though I am sad to confess this, we are both ready for this step. I will be traveling and shooting again this fall, N. will stay home as a full time dad a few weeks, there will be more time for us and for work and life goes on.
