My little basketball player // Lifestyle Photographer Stavanger

As far back as I can remember, there has never been a week with as nice weather as we had last week. The sun was shining, no wind and at least 27 degrees in the shade. 

A rare occurrence for Vigrestad, Norway. 

Fortunately I was on holiday with my little Diva and Coco Puffs and we got to spend some quality time outside in the garden. Their favourite game is playing ball. CoCo runs around whilst the girl throws the ball and giggle. 

I was witnessing this cuteness and ran inside to grab my camera. She was so adorable in her signed # 5 Jamal Wilson, Cairns Taipans jersey.    

My hopes are still alive that she will be playing basketball just like me! 

Fingers x everyone! 

Paternity Leave // Stavanger Photographer

I feel ridiculously lonely without my family. 

They are in Korea enjoying bulgogi, cheap beer and cherry blossoms.  

I feel so lucky that my husband has such a great relationship with my parents and my daughter that he can go over there all on his own. 

My husband had hardly ever held a baby before the birth of our daughter. Ironically he was the first to hold her and spend time with her during the first hours of her life.  

The midwives were working on me to try stop the bleeding for hours and although I was pretty out of it I could swear he hardly moved a muscle the whole time in fear of dropping her. 

Fast forward to this year January he suddenly got in charge of her primary care. I started back at work full time whilst he started his paternity leave. 

It has been really amazing to see how much they have bonded in these months that they have spent together. She has become a proper daddy´s girl and I love to see them together. 

Wouldn´t you? 

My Saturday Mornings / Stavanger Photographer

I love being a mom but I must admit some days (or nights) are harder than others. The last few nights our little princess has woken up around midnight and been very angry and reluctant about going back to sleep. Last night was the same, and coupled with a stiff and sore neck and shoulder region accompanied by a migraine it was a rough night and morning.

Now both princess and Daddy are asleep for a nap and the house is quiet and I get a few moments of "ME" time. Coffee in one hand, some delicious chocolate hearts in the other (thanks to my valentine :-) ) and iPad on lap. I'm on pintrest looking through beautiful images and inspiring ideas. Then I switch over to read Instyle Magazine and other fab magazines that I subscribe to. This is my moments. My mome ts of feeding myself with inspiration and ideas, and not focusing on all the million things that should be done...

Hope you take time to do the same!
