..lovely soft animals

So I'm suddenly into checking out toys and I have found some favorites. Jellycat Cordy Roy Collection is a collection of very cool soft toys with delicious colors. I want to get at least three of them.. The pig, the croc and the elephant. Which one is your favorite?

We got to borrow this beautiful cradle from my cousin and I am totaly in love with it! Danish design. See their website here. Picture taken before the beautiful bird made a nest out of it..

So, I have started my materinty leave. It's the weirdest feeling, but I love that I finally have time to crochet, knit, organize our apartment and planning the baby's arrival!

Yesterday I found this bird at the store 'Sjarm' in Oslo. I have a total weakness for birds and just had to buy it. I bought it for my baby girl and now it's hanging over her amazing cradle that I'll show you tomorrow..
