Finally our new baby boy is in my arms!!!

I do not have so much time yet as I am still adjusting on having two little children.. but I am sooo happy I could not avoid giving Kian the right welcome in our family.

Thanks to mty splendid and talented friend Linnette from Paper Glitterù8who helped me designing the graphic and several paper items I used at the party ) we threw a small “welcome home” party for outr little angel.. welcome Kian!!!

For now enjoy pictures and food ideas from the party, but stay tuned because I will share some surprises with you!

A while ago, when I saw the beautiful picnic party organized by Love, Ink (you can see the pictures  here), I immediately thought it could have been a beutiful idea to throw a “picnic/afenoon snack party” for all the children who live here…

It is really a little time that we created in the garden a small playground area and this could be the perfect chance to celebrate it and also to create a sort of “children team spirit” to have them play all together and meet the parents…

Despite my big belly I replicated then a picnic party here in Milan, even if it is much smaller and simpler than the one I found on the web…

I did not have so much time (and energies) so I completely re-drew the logo Love Ink created and I also used the same color scheme for decorations and graphic (it was so nice there was nothing I wanted to change).. I prepared invitations and then I spent some time in the kitchen…

I knoew I had only a small table to place in the garden, but luckily there were not so many children so in the end everything had its place…

Since it was only a snack for the afternoon I just prepared some sweet things, with healthy and simple ingredients to please almost every child (and parents too ) .. but to capture attention I also put something colored and funny on the table…

No goodie bags, but there were some meringue baskets for the little ones to take back home…

It was a nice afternoon.. all the children were happy and played together a lot.. last but not least they finally got the chance to know each other better, so at the end of the day they were all together playing, interacting, speaking… Nabiki was so tired this evening she immediately fell asleep.. I wonder if she is dreaming about all her new friends and about all the bubbles they made this afternoon…
