00:00Hi everyone and thanks for watching this new vlog and today we're going to celebrate Easter
00:05because it is Easter Monday. Yesterday we went on a city trip, you saw that in my previous vlog
00:10and today we are having a vegan, or vegan, an Easter brunch, I want to say, not specifically
00:18vegan. I am vegan or I try to eat as vegan as possible since I'm pregnant. I'm not really
00:25strict. But I have here, I think this is typical, I don't know if it's typical Dutch or other
00:33European countries or other countries in the world has this as well. This is like an Easter
00:38bread. The text is also a feast stall, so a party stall. So it's also possible to eat it
00:44with Christmas. But it's with raisins in it and with sugar. And I don't know if it's typical
00:50Dutch. But we used to eat it a lot during Easter or Christmas. And I brought this with
00:57me. And what is typical Dutch is eggs. These are chocolate eggs. So eggs are not specifically
01:08typical Dutch because you have eggs from chickens all around the world. But the chocolate eggs
01:14are specifically Dutch. I realized when I was with Easter in Uganda years ago. And what is
01:22also really a Dutch thing is to hide the Easter eggs so the kids can find them. Since my cousin
01:32is really a young kid, he's almost two, I thought I'd choose for big eggs so he can find it
01:39more
01:39easily than the smaller eggs. So as an auntie, I'm going to hide that. These are literally
01:46the things I can't wait to do with my own kids. I am not really a baby mom. You have
01:53those people
01:54who really like to cuddle the baby and having those cozy times. But I am literally the entertaining
02:01mom. I love those moments when we indeed can hide the eggs or what we also do with chicken
02:09axes, paint the eggs and then hide them. Or going to, I don't know, nice playgrounds,
02:18play with my kids, play games. Yeah, go on adventure. Those kind of moments. I can't wait to relive
02:27my youth again. So yeah. But hey, first the baby moments. It will be also nice. But for now,
02:37I'm going to be the nice auntie and hide these eggs. So yeah, that's typical Dutch. Also typical Dutch
02:45is to eat a lot of bread and also the matzahs. I will show you. I think it's a Jewish
02:51thing.
02:53And it literally comes from the Bible. Ooh, now I have to get my Bible knowledge why there are matzahs.
03:02I think it was. I think it was because it was something with a long walk. My parents are really
03:12going to... Sorry. But it was something like some people went on a long walk and they searched for
03:21food that stayed long and then they made the matzahs. Something like that. And I hope I said it good.
03:27But you know what? That's the good thing of editing. Now the right explanation will come for you.
03:39That's also why we eat them with Esther Easter. Not with Esther. Okay, I'm over the moon excited.
03:47And I'll bring you with me during this Easter brunch.
03:59Okay guys, we are back home. I showed you a little bit of the Easter brunch. But we got a
04:07present. Well,
04:15I thought I'm going to install it together with you. I know how to install it. It's not really complicated.
04:21And then I will also show you the rest of the stuff we got. Because it's a lot again.
04:42I can't.
04:49Okay, the next thing I want to show you is this bag. Well, don't be afraid. I'm not going to
04:55show you
04:55the whole freaking bag. Because it's a lot. But it's actually one item in there. And that is
05:02reusable diapers. I just got a, or washable diapers. How do you call them? I can wash them. And that's
05:09the thing. I got a whole short course from my sister. How to, yeah, put it on for the baby.
05:19I'm really excited to do this. You have like this. You have to first put this layer on. And there
05:26is
05:26even an extra layer. But she said it's more that when the baby is going to sleep longer. But in
05:31the
05:31first few weeks, you don't use this layer. And then you have this one above it. Because this is, yeah,
05:42plastic, I think. At least this is getting really wet. It's basically a towel. And this is going to
05:51protect, yeah, the clothes that it doesn't get wet. And then we have also like a roll of paper,
05:58which you put in the diaper. That is when they are older. When they don't get breastfeeding alone
06:08anymore. That was the thing. When they stop getting only breast
06:15feet, then you should put the wall in it as well. Or one piece of paper. I think I can
06:24show you on a
06:25picture. It's like this. So yeah, I paid for this. I got it from my sister as well. And I
06:32could just,
06:33yeah, buy it from her because her babies can't handle really the wetness. So this is what we're
06:39going to try out. I hope our baby don't get really, yeah, how do you say that? An itchy skin
06:47of it. It can
06:48be because it's going to be really wet. And she also advised me that when the baby is going to
06:54sleep
06:54longer, like in the first weeks or maybe months, the baby gets awake every certain of hours. But
07:03when the baby starts to take longer sleep, then maybe I also going to combine it with, yeah, throw
07:11away diapers or diapers that I have to throw away. So yeah, a lot again, it's a bag full. And
07:19I'm really
07:19excited to use that and put it in the commode as well in the closet. And I got some clothes
07:27as well
07:28for my, from my sister for me. And that's all the things I've got. I got a lot.
08:02Hello, hello,
08:02it is Thursday and yesterday and the day before I work with kids, but actually the common days I
08:09don't work with kids. I work for myself at home. It is now afternoon, but I thought I'm going to
08:15show
08:15you something. I bought two sweaters. Yes, it's two in the same color, same size. No, not same size.
08:23Design. That's the word I was searching for. In the same design, because in two days it's King's Day.
08:33Actually, it's the King's birthday on Sunday. But since Sunday is a holy day, we are celebrating it on
08:42Saturday or we as a country, the Netherlands. For us, it's really normal to celebrate the birthday of the
08:48King. Fun fact, we used to celebrate Queen's Day. It was the 30th of April. Actually, it wasn't the
08:59birthday of the mother of the King. It was the birthday of, I think it was even her mother's birthday
09:06birthday or her mother's mother's birthday. I'm not so sure. I think it was her mother's birthday
09:12because actually Queen Beatrix, or now Princess Beatrix, her birthday is in December, October, November.
09:22Editor Jessica will now help you around. But since that's in wintertime, they thought we're not going
09:30to celebrate it, so we keep it on the 13th of April. But then her son, Beatrix's son, Prince Willem
09:38Alexander, now King Willem Alexander, is born on the 27th of April. They thought three days before,
09:46it's okay. So we now celebrate it on the 27th of April. But when it's on Sunday, we are like,
09:53no, no, no, no, no. Sunday is our holy day. Let's celebrate it on Saturday. So in two days,
09:58we're going to celebrate King's Day and then the whole Netherlands colors orange. So I thought I'm going
10:06to have one for my boyfriend and one for myself because I had already a t-shirt. But to be
10:12honest,
10:13April, yeah, now as well, it's really raining today. But April is not the hottest day of the year.
10:21So that's why you can better wear long sleeves than a t-shirt. So I finally have my orange sweater
10:28to party during King's Day. Today is the day that I'm going to make a lot of content, edit a
10:35lot of
10:35content and do some work for myself. It's already three o'clock. Yeah, it's three o'clock.
10:40I did a lot of work already. I also took some rest, since of course, I'm almost 27 weeks.
10:50Really now the time is, I don't know why, but the time is going so fast that I'm getting nervous
10:58and
10:59excited at the same time. Anywho, I also need to balance more my energy. So I took also some rest
11:08and
11:08I still have to do some work, but I'm going to do that now. I'm going to shoot some videos.
11:13I'm going to edit some and I'm going to pick up some groceries for a video. And that's actually
11:19basically it for today. Tomorrow I have also a whole list of things I want to do. Maybe if I
11:26have
11:26enough energy and the mood is good, then I'm going to do that today. Because tomorrow, yeah,
11:34we have a lot of, actually my boyfriend has a lot of appointments, but I think I should go with
11:40him
11:41to these appointments. So yeah, I see you either tonight, tomorrow or Saturday. I have no idea,
11:49but I just wanted to show you the orange t-shirt that I bought. Hey, good morning to you. It's
11:54Saturday
11:54and it's King's Day. That's why I'm dressed in orange, because today we celebrate the birthday of
12:02the king and then everyone is orange. I did already this last year, so yeah, today we're going to stay
12:09in my village. I'm pregnant and I'm not in the mood to be in a really crowded place.
12:15I have a little bit of FOMO. I really would love to dance and just party. But hey, it's going
12:24to be fine,
12:25it's going to be nice and yeah, I'm thinking I'm just going to the market now to see what's there
12:31and then we shall see what they will bring. But of course I take you with me and I should
12:38say enjoy
12:39the orange village.
13:12Okay guys, I am now, well, I want to say home, but I'm just, the good thing is I'm living
13:18in the
13:18center of, yeah, my village, town, whatever you can name it. It's not a city. So yeah, we just,
13:26I just went already around 12 for a walk and then around 2 for a walk. And my sister was
13:34here as well.
13:35Probably she will come back with her husband and kids and then we do another walk and join some other
13:41music and then probably we have dinner over there and maybe in the evening I'm also going to enjoy
13:48some music. But yeah, somehow I'm like, because to be honest, if I wasn't pregnant, I would probably
13:57stand there in the music dancing with a beer in my hand and going wild. But at this moment I'm
14:03really
14:03happy that I'm sitting and I'm going to sit on the couch as well, just to relax. And yeah, next
14:09year
14:09is also King's Day, so it will be fine. And I get something nice for it back. So I'm still
14:16grateful,
14:18although I feel a little bit fear of missing out. And on the other hand, I said also to my
14:23sister,
14:23because she said, yeah, it's quite boring. But I said, yeah, to be honest, if you are with a big
14:28group
14:28of people and the music is okay, then it doesn't matter where in what place you are celebrating it.
14:36So yeah, as long as the music is fine and the people are nice, just dance. So yeah, for now
14:44I'm
14:44going to wait home. My boyfriend is by the way in Amsterdam, he's meeting their friend. And yeah,
14:51he told me already like a week ago. And at first I thought, oh, I want to join them. But
14:55then I was like,
14:56no, I don't want to be in a train and in crowded Amsterdam. And so I said to him, you
15:02don't have
15:03to stick to my plan. Please follow your own because yeah, for me, it's quite okay to just have your
15:11own social life. So he's going to do that. And maybe we meet each other in the evening or at
15:19night.
15:19I don't know. We shall see, but it will be all fine. So yeah, I don't want to take away
15:26his King's
15:27Day from him, his second King's Day, since I'm pregnant. And like he said as well, there will be
15:35plenty of King's Days as well, which we can celebrate. Okay, guys, it is Sunday and I'm on my
15:42rooftop. Oh, it's six o'clock in the evening. I'm still chilling on my rooftop. What a life. I think
15:50the cozy summer slash spring nights just have begun. So I'm very grateful. Today was really a lazy day.
15:59We didn't do that much. I have to admit, I did some work. I called it a lazy day because
16:04I didn't
16:05went on a trip. But to be honest, I worked a lot today. So it was a work from home
16:10day. Yeah, I want
16:12to finish this vlog already. I hope you liked it, all the events. And I want to see you next
16:17week
16:17in a new vlog. Bye bye!
