#swissbabyjames had an epic fever last weekend 🌡 🤒 so we had to skip our German 🎄 market trip- made up for it with a festive day at @montreuxnoel in #montreux #switzerland - 💫 my mom (& dad!) always made this time so special for my sister & I that I couldn’t be more psyched to celebrate it with our little miracle- fussiness from a 9 month leap (maybe?) be damned! 🎅❤️#merrychristmas #merryswissmas 🇨🇭
Kicked off #christmas season with < 24 hours of shopping & cocktailing in #paris sans #swissbabyjames & his buddy Nia but with #parisfrance professional @esmounsey ! Replaced the stolen laptops, had charming dinner @lecomptoirdespetitschamps enjoyed vin chaud & dernier métros @le_fumoir to recover from the already bustling shops... - #gallerieslafayette was gorgeous but a packed SCENE already & @sezane has a free waffle cart outside for antsy fashionistas waiting in line! Missed our babies who were in great hands with dads & so lovely to stroll pram-free 🛍 🍸
In sum: #portugal best friend & baby week in #porto #dourovalley #lisbon #sintra was a doozy! We had some tough breaks with ☔️ , 🤒 , ✈️ 🚂 delays, & even stolen 💻 😢 With anyone else, this may have spelled disaster. But we had to be a little bit unlucky, because we really hit the jackpot🎰 with these friends, & even more so with both of our sweet 👶’s. The week flew, we shared more 😆 than 😢 , ate delicious 🥘 & 🍷, learned lots 📚, took beautiful day trips full of 🏰 & 🍇& persevered despite burglary, inaccurate monsoon reports, ⏰ changes & pretty poor infrastructure 🇵🇹 . No trip is ever perfect- but our company was. So happy that our tribe is all about raising adaptable, curious boys & remember that those who don’t seek magic ✨ never find it. I will blog eventually but seriously- some scum bags broke into our @airbnb in #lisboa & stole our computers 👩‍💻. ____________________ #wanderlust #thatsdarling #instatravel #traveldiary #theglobewanderer #viaparadise #acolorstory #beautifuldestinations #lifewelltraveled #neverstopexploring #sheisnotlost #familyadventures #lifewelltravelled #childhoodunplugged #worldoflittles #mytinymoments #babytravel #travelwithkids #babytraveller #keepitwild #letthembelittle #travelmore #honestmotherhood #wildandbravelittles
Promise I’m almost done with these baby & bff highlights from #portugal 🥰 Thank you for going to high school together @ford.robertj & @scott.doesntknow ____________________ #wanderlust #thatsdarling #instatravel #traveldiary #theglobewanderer #exploretocreate #viaparadise #acolorstory #beautifuldestinations #lifewelltraveled #neverstopexploring #sheisnotlost #familyadventures #lifewelltravelled #childhoodunplugged #worldoflittles #mytinymoments #babytravel #travelwithkids #babytraveller #keepitwild #letthembelittle #travelmore #honestmotherhood #wildandbravelittles
A highlight of #sintra was the Quinta da Regaleira- the mystical playground of wealthy eccentric alchemist, Catholic, naturalist, and Free Mason Carvalho Monteiro who designed the space with Italian architect Luigi Manini to reflect his amalgam of interests and beliefs in the early 1900s. Rich people can be weird & just be called eccentrics 🤣 seeing his mysterious vision was fascinating & so helpful to have a great tour from @airbnbexperiences to illuminate the details! #portugal #portugal🇵🇹 #quintadaregaleira ____________________ #wanderlust #thatsdarling #instatravel #traveldiary #theglobewanderer #exploretocreate #viaparadise #acolorstory #beautifuldestinations #lifewelltraveled #neverstopexploring #sheisnotlost #familyadventures #lifewelltravelled #childhoodunplugged #worldoflittles #mytinymoments #babytravel #travelwithkids #babytraveller #keepitwild #letthembelittle #travelmore #honestmotherhood #wildandbravelittles
"Of course it is happening inside your head, Harry, but why on earth should that mean it is not real?" - we brought #swissbabyjames for his second baptism at #livrarialello in #porto #portugal which is said to have inspired #harrypotter 🧙‍♂️ author J.K. Rowling during her time living nearby - it’s full of Instagrammers but you can still feel some⚡️ ____________________ #wanderlust #thatsdarling #instatravel #traveldiary #theglobewanderer #exploretocreate #viaparadise #acolorstory #beautifuldestinations #lifewelltraveled #neverstopexploring #sheisnotlost #familyadventures #lifewelltravelled #childhoodunplugged #worldoflittles #mytinymoments #babytravel #travelwithkids #babytraveller #keepitwild #letthembelittle #travelmore #honestmotherhood #wildandbravelittles
Can’t resist sharing my new favorite picture of #swissbabyjames from #lisboa - fighting a tummy bug but looking oh so delicious doing it 💙 ____________________ #wanderlust #thatsdarling #instatravel #traveldiary #theglobewanderer #exploretocreate #viaparadise #acolorstory #beautifuldestinations #lifewelltraveled #neverstopexploring #sheisnotlost #familyadventures #lifewelltravelled #childhoodunplugged #worldoflittles #mytinymoments #babytravel #travelwithkids #babytraveller #keepitwild #letthembelittle #travelmore #honestmotherhood #wildandbravelittles
