CopenhagenGirl's Profile

Wow, I'm surprised that there are so many great guests and hosts on here! I for one will be keeping this post in mind as we stay with family next month. We always rent our own car and take our hosts out for dinner at least once- actually I think that we mutually enjoy taking turn paying for treats! It's easy however to get into the holiday mode and forget the tidying up all the time etc and I find it awkward giving a hand at tidying in another person's home especially when you know that the person likes things a certain way. There can be a lot of issues arise and I think a lot of it has to do with personalities.

If you invite someone over enjoy their company and allow them to enjoy yours! If they invite themselves.. and you aren't prepared for guests show them the nearest B&B.

I love the rooms, the scale play. I don't think the girls room is plain, it has some beautiful subtle details, the Casper chair reminds me of Cinders glass slipper, for all we know it could be exactly the way the child at her age wants it- I'd have loved that room. Neither are big rooms. Have you ever tried photographing a small space? My guess is that they moved the bed from in front of the flag where there would be a good room balance and access to cupboards and room exit, to get a good photo. My work is done here Mrs Marple.

I found this a problem to begin with too, especially when they are newborn.. at first I waited until N's nap time, then when she could hold her head up adequately I put her in the shower with me sitting in the bumbo so she just got a little spray from the shower, then as she got bigger I filled her baby bath up and put her in it while I showered. But to be fair now my shower habits have changed it seems, I will take one at night or when her dad is home. So much easier!

Red + green (and pink + green) are some of my favorite colors together. The Rhyme comes to my mind however that 'Red and green should never be seen, unless on an Irish Gypsy Queen..' I think the room pic on the right could very nicely be for a gypsy queen.
