Winter Warmth

Thankfully, last week, we had a reprieve from all the rain. Its good for the farmers- I know this. Its good for the gardens- I know this too. It is winter- I am well aware.

But it is NOT good for kids that love to play outside!!

Thankfully , however, our home days coincided with the sunniest, warmest winter days we have seen yet!! Just glorious!

We spent alot of time soaking up the sunshine ( and I spent alot of time hanging out washing) and even had a few morning teas and lunches out in the glorious rays!

And just because they are cute.

And I am biased.

Our beautiful little people;

They are the happiest when outside, and so am I , I  must admit.

We have just returned from an amazing weekend in Perth, 4 hours South of home.

Such a fantastic family weekend, we had a ball.

But... we are stuffed too.

The kids were early to bed, and I am heading there now!!

Hope you all had a good weekend too!

Family Day

Sundays, are our family day, seeing as though I work Saturday's , we have one day a week to do all the odd bits and bobs around the house, mow the lawns, clean up and spend some quality time together. Needless to say, I LOVE Sundays.

So, yesterday, we flagged 3 parties we were invited to (sorry Peeps) , to go to the water park early, before the heat of the day set in, and we all had a great time!!

Stella waiting, ever so patiently for the water to come on!!

Loving it!

 

Max the water baby

Trying to Shoot Mummy

The best Dad in the world

My precious family

Snug as a bug!!

Plumb tuckered out!

So happy!!



We played, splashed , snacked, slept, and spend the much needed time together, can't beat it!!

Sunday = Funday

I LOVE Sundays!! I am sure I have said it all before but I love, love , love them!! Nothing better than a lazy morning, pikelets for a breakfast picnic, soe=me quiet time for Stella watching new movies that Grandma bought home from Bali yesterday (dont like the new Toy Story 3 btw!!) , then a trip to town, parents house and home for more chilling.
Stella and I made a pretty necklace for her, as she is into everything jewellery at the moment , and we went to town to buy her a present for sleeping through the night and not calling out to Dad and she bought more jewellery!!
She has been waking a few times a night for the past few months. At first it was right after she went into Knickers for her night time sleep, then it has just snowballed, and finally the twins are sleeping better, and now onto Stella!!
She just wakes as anyone does, and calls out for stupid reasons "I can't find my water bottle" and its right next to her, " I want a cuddle" cute but argh!! Noel has been getting up to her, so I am lucky but it still wakes us and its just not fair on him. Soooo we have resorted to a parents best friend = bribery!!
If she sleeps through without calling Dad she can get a sticker and a present!! From the cheapie shops of course, but it works!!
Speaking of toys, I am looking for a Blythe doll for her for Christmas, argh!! SO hard to find, especially one for less than $150! I think its more for me actually!
I am thinking about doing a day trip to Perth for Upmarket, I can't wait!!
Hope evryone enjoyed their Sunday.
Sunday, Sunday, Sunday, oh how I love thee!!
And I love my Max's cheeky grin even more!
