Happy Birthday to Rosie

Our Rosie turned 2 today. We had a little party for her this afternoon (in amongst a stressful afternoon with the girls – why is it when you try do something fun for them they muck up?). Rosie seemed to enjoy the attention – and her cake.

This is the mess I came home to last night. I think she was celebrating her last day as a one year old. Me, I wasn’t impressed as I’d just cleaned this room and getting straw off carpet is rather hard.

And finally, a face you just have to love.

Weekend round-up

img_0339

Had a nice, but busy weekend. On Saturday the girls had drama, then Amy had two birthday parties to attend in the afternoon. I pottered around a bit and finish off this little album that I started on Friday afternoon. I love how it turned out – and it’s something very different for me -but was really oh, so, easy – which really is me.

Kevin was away Sat and Sat night – he wanted to try out camping with the motorbike – he was very cold and I don’t think too impressed. The girls and I went with Mum & Dad to have a look at a caravan park for us to stay at in the October school holidays. It looks very nice, has a kids club and is only 30mins from home. The girls can’t wait.

Afterwards we had a nice lunch in Gerringong.

Then had a look through some shops – Mum & I found these wonderful goodies at a cute little shop – couldn’t believe how cheap things were. We did buy more but some is for my birthday next week.

TV fun

Mii figures

Here’ is our wii family – cute aren’t we? They make these little models based on your weight and height and you pick facial features.

For your laughing pleasure are a couple of photos of us playing wii fit. We’re all loving it – it’s a not great workout for me(compared to the gym) but it sure is fun. Kevin was a bit annoyed that my wii fit age was 28 and his was 47 🙂 – we are both 36.

Happy Mothers Day

Hope all the Mum’s had (or have) a great day. I was awake at my usual time of 4.30pm, and read blogs (while having that cup of tea) until the girls sent me back to bed. They me a fried egg on toast.

I then got some presents they had bought at school and the new Wii fit.

Mum came over to help me set the table for today’s lunch. Then I managed to find an hour to make this card for Mum (thanks to Gretchen’s class) & start on a layout before our guests arrived.

We ate outside since it was such a lovely day. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves.

I’ve had a very nice mothers day. We’ve just had a spa and are about to have some dinner (leftovers of course) and watch an episode of “House”. Hopefully I can fit in some more of that yummy desert :-),
