We are so used to being able to get what we want, when we want. If I want to see what people are up to I can check facebook - day or night - and see what my friends are feeling/thinking/doing there and then. If I want news I can get on the net. If I want to be entertained I can put on the TV and … [Read more...]

I may or may not have mentioned that Daisy's sleep has gone a little awry these past 3 weeks or so. Out of nowhere she decided that she didn't want to be put into her bed at night. All her lovely little life we have done dinner, bath, bottle, books and then bed. I have put her in her cot, done a … [Read more...]

Poor thing had to go … [Read more...]

Daisy usually says this little phrase when she drops something, or I drop something. I must have said it a lot when she was growing up as it was one of the first things that she said. "Uh oh" (Mummy dropped you)..."Uh Oh" (Mummy forgot to feed you) stuff like that. This morning I was in the kitchen … [Read more...]

I have a little tune stuck in my head. Back to reality....oops there goes gravity. Oh so true. What a fabbo time we had away. Plenty of good food and wine and company.We crashed the house a day early because it was so cold in Sydney and I thought I might just get a chance to see some snow so Daise … [Read more...]

Before I forget the details thought I better write them down for posterity. I guess this is some sort of baby book for her – well it will have to do as I don’t have anything else! We had Daisy’s 18 month check up and shots last week (the last of the vaccinations until she is 4 – yay for that!). She … [Read more...]

You know that things have changed when your own birthday doesn't really mean much to you but more of a chance to let your own child enjoy it and see the joy that they get from it. Don't get me wrong...I love a birthday and still do but I have come to realise that I love more seeing Daisy get into … [Read more...]

We had another great weekend. Very relaxed spent mostly at home but it was LOVELY. Friday night we stayed in and watched the opening ceremony and spent quite a bit of time on the computer looking at the apartment that we have booked in Paris and planning all of the great things we are going to do … [Read more...]

Yesterday I had another one of those milestone moments with Daise - we went and had her fitted for her first pair of shoes! Don't get me wrong I have not had her barefoot for the past 18 months - she has been wearing shoes but now that she has been walking for a few weeks I was advised to wait until … [Read more...]

So....we have been throwing around the idea of an overseas holiday at Christmas for the past few months. My sister and her boyfriend live over in London and I miss them both terribly. I am very close to Lucy and have so missed her being a part of my life now as a mother - sharing all the small … [Read more...]

Well what a weekend I have had. What a lucky lady! Rob managed to take Friday off work as well (this truly never ever happens) and we spent the day with his brother and sister in law and their 3 little girls which was great fun. They have the most amazing house and play room which has EVERY toy you … [Read more...]

So...Wednesday night I got home from work, Daisy and Rob got home from daycare and work and Rob asked me what I had planned on Thursday. I told him that I wanted to hang out at home and let Daisy rest as much as she could as she is always exhausted after her 3 days at daycare. He then proceeds to … [Read more...]

It seems I have found a new hobby and favourite past time that I can't stop doing. Not sure if you have ever tried it? It's beating yourself up. Not physically. But mentally I am giving it a really good go.It seems that the last few months I have been up and down and up and down with my emotions. A … [Read more...]

We have seen some concerts this past week. Firstly we started at the Playschool concert on Friday with my Mum and my brothers little lady Mia. The girls had a great time. I was unsure how Daise was going to take it after the Wiggles debacle but she loved every minute. She stood up and danced and … [Read more...]

SO this happened on the weekend:Rob and I are both so proud of our little girl. I tell you it was a LONG time coming as almost every child I know has walked before 17 months but I am still bursting with pride for her. You should see her face. She is just so pleased with herself and stops to clap … [Read more...]

Daisy is almost walking. Solo. Well not really, but her walking really has improved. And I thought that was worth writing about. She is happy to walk between the two of us (Rob and I) or any 2 people that she trusts and is now more confident with the walking while just holding onto one hand. She is … [Read more...]

Each weekend of late Daisy seems to grow from Friday to Sunday. Sometimes physically, she feels heavier when you pick her up, taller against your leg, or has more teeth in her mouth and sometimes (and most recently) she has new words to say. And does she ever. Give her a little praise for nailing a … [Read more...]
