I am one happy lady this new morning. If the morning I have had is anything to go by, I think this is going to be one good year!1: I awoke this morning with no hangover. A hangover free New Years Day is reasonably rare for me. I think the last one was when I was pregnant with Daise 3 years ago and … [Read more...]

January was for...Paris...for a few days at least. Amazing times with my family in the most beautiful of cities. It was about coming home and soaking up some of the summer holidays and for me looking for work and starting to get anxious about it all. In January the house was clean and home cooked … [Read more...]

Someone is having the time of ones life up here. Grandparents (& great grandparents) to follow around and do everything with - gardening, cooking swimming, walking, making beds, cleaning, anything and everything.Bless her world. … [Read more...]

Not only are my (ever ample) bosoms providing enough milk to feed many, many children, they are also great flotation devices.Dear Lord - put them away! … [Read more...]

Our little lady is 2 (!) months old today. Growing bigger every day, getting stronger, more awake and alert and ever cuter. Honestly, the cheeks people, the cheeks!I am willing time to slow down, to try and soak the little babyness of her before it all disappears. I know it will all too soon.So … [Read more...]

From all of us up here at EIEIO (yes, Rob's Dads farm is called E I E I O) we wish you a very Merry Christmas! It's been a wonderful Christmas Eve and the joy that one little Miss Daisy has experienced all before 8am on this Christmas morn is something I won't forget in a hurry.Harper has basically … [Read more...]

Take a look at what we have. SUCH lovely ladies. I just can't stop looking (and taking photos) of them. I know it must be getting boring... … [Read more...]

How was it that a year has passed since we were in Paris? A year on and the memories are as strong and wonderful as they were then...You too can read all about the lead up to the trip and then the trip if you feel that way inclined... … [Read more...]

Ah jeepers what a crazy time of year this is! We had a VERY busy weekend filled with catching up with family for Christmas. Saturday we had lunch with Rob's Mum and then yesterday we did Christmas with my family - exchanging presents for the day - the whole thing as we will all be all over the place … [Read more...]

Earlier in the week I was thinking (and writing) about how grown up I feel these days. I tell you I (look) and feel every one of my 32 years at the moment. Yesterday I had a chance to duck out to the shops while my Mum looked after the girls for me to try and find a little Christmas frock and some … [Read more...]

Since I have had Harper I have felt like there have been many more times where I have stood back and looked at myself from afar and felt SO grown up. I sometimes catch a glance of myself with the girls in the reflection of a shop window, or see myself drive past in our STATION WAGON and think - when … [Read more...]

So! You guys! This morning I went and passed my last driving test and am now a proper grown up. AT LONG FREAKING LAST. You see I only got my drivers licence when I was 8 months pregnant with Daisy which was 3 years ago now. And because I waited, oh 15 years, longer than I should have all the new … [Read more...]

When we went overseas last year for Christmas we came home via Hong Kong to stay with some friends. I LOVED the city and the people and the shopping - the lot - it was fabulous. What I also loved was the attention that we got because of Daisy. Well, we got to fast track customs cause we had a cute … [Read more...]

This past weekend we escaped up the coast to my Dad's place at the beach for our Christmas catch up. It was perfect: great warm weather, first swims in the ocean for the summer, walks on the beach, an exhausted toddler who was in bed by 6pm each night, a blissed out baby who slept well, grandparents … [Read more...]

We were on our way home from daycare the other day, Daisy busy chat chat chatting away to me about what she had done for the day, what she plans on doing when she gets home and (of course) about Christmas. Harper was screaming away (as per usual) and I was trying to drive as quickly as possible … [Read more...]

And it wants it's undercut back. And I'm not sure I want to give it back. In the words of Rachel Zoe: BANANAS. And: I die. It's quite fabulous no? Maybe not your cup of tea but it will be mine for a little while at least. And yes that is a number 1 buzz cut there on a mother of two. And yes it does … [Read more...]
