Studies suggest that kids need at least 10 minutes of daily connect time with at least one adult to feel safe, connected, and loved. During this time, your child needs to have your full attention, and to get really connected, your full engagement. That means PLAY!
Now there are few things I love as much as a wedding.
I LOVE love and being married.
Whilst the wedding preparations and planning can become stressful and tiresome what better way to spoil the bride, have some fun and connect with her at her bridal shower.
Now if you know me, I like to keep things classy and minimalistic and hate being embarrassed.
I found some pretty cool bridal shower game ideas that you might want to try out.
1. Match the custom to the original superstition.
2. What did he say about his bride?
3. Read His Mind
Before the lovey-dovey twosome become one on their wedding day, test their knowledge of each other to find out if they really are ‘of the same mind.’ A week or two before the shower, ask the groom twenty revealing questions about himself and his relationship (if planning a couple’s wedding shower, give the bride her own set of twenty questions to answer), and film the groom answering each question.
Questions can be zany and/or sweetly romantic: “If you could burn one thing in your bride-to-be’s closet, what would it be,” and “What was the moment you knew she was the One,” are just a couple of great examples. At the shower, ask the bride to guess his answer to each question. Then, play his videotaped response. Each time the bride gets it wrong, give her a ball of bubblegum to chew. The worse she reads his mind, the more gum she has to chew—before you know it, the bride can barely talk around the huge, gooey wad in her mouth!
4. Bangle Shakedown
Looking for a fun game to keep guests as engaged as the bride-to-be? Here you have it. Before the party, come up with a short list of overused wedding-related words or exclamations (e.g. bride, wedding, dress, “Aww!”) to forbid. As each guest arrives, give her a charm bracelet with a little note listing the forbidden words and the following rules: if someone hears another person saying a word on the list at any time during the shower, she gets to take the rule-breaker’s bracelet. At the end of the party, the person with the most bracelets gets a prize—plus the chic set of bracelets on her arm!
5. Two Truths and a Lie
This is a great icebreaker for guests who are just getting to know each other. Each guest tells the group three experiences he or she has had with the bride or groom; two are true, one is a lie. Guests then guess which one they think is a lie. Often, the most unbelievable stories are the truth!
6. Bridal libs
7. Would they rather?
8. Wishes for the bride and groom.
Hope this helps.

We recently got another puppy and what amazed me is the amount of toys our pets already have.
It feels comforting to hear the words and believe that we should go with the flow. And whatever will be will be.
Hello lovelies,
I don’t know if it is just me but recently I have been blessed to be invited to quite a few baby showers.
Now if there is one thing that I absolutely adore it is a baby shower which is classy and cute and where the mommy feels loved, cherished and special. And NOT embarrassed.
Below a gallery with images from Pinterest with cute baby shower ideas for a little girl.
I have also gathered a few links to assist the baby shower planner with a few baby shower printables and themes.
1. Pink stripes and polka dots
4. Pink onesie
Well, that is me for now.
Let me know how it went 😉

Yep, the title is correct. Dog(s) and cat(s). My husband Justus and I are completely outnumbered at home by our furry little animals.
The best therapist has four legs and fur.
I have quite a few friends on Facebook who is expecting the arrival of their little one soon – (you know who your are) hence all my baby posts.
The arrival of a little one is UBER exciting for them but also for me as their friend.
There are few things as special as receiving a hand-made gift.
I feel extra special and love seeing what they have done.
Using a scrub on your hands, feet or legs is actually such a simple way to take a 5 minute time out and treat yourself and it is ideal as a gift.
I’m sure being pregnant for some people must be one of the best times of their lives but also one of the most awkward and for some ladies worst times of their life. It’s almost like a double edged sword.
