it seems

 that when you
 are young & free
 the most favourite
 place to be

& my girls would spend all day everyday at a park if they could!

Daisy chains on a Sunday morning...


So, it's Sunday morning. Real early. I'm up on top of a mountain with my 2.5 year old daughter - perched by the roadside, sitting on the grass waiting. Daddy is racing his bicycle. He won't be back around for another hour. And, aside from a bottle o water and a packet of Tiny teddys I've brought no entertainment. Hmm that should fill in five minutes... What to do?

But thank goodness nature provides it's own sources of creative entertainment and on this occasion it didn't let me down.Daisy chains, folks. An oldy but a goody.Never loses it's charm, does it?






 

39 Weeks

Baby is ready, Momma is ready!

I had a growth ultrasound last Friday at 38 weeks, 4 days. Addison looked absolutely perfect. Tech said she is ready and everything looks great. She was estimated 7.1lbs! Not as little as people may have expected due to my belly size! She has chunky cheeks and chunky thighs (we actually saw fat rolls!) Gosh, I love seeing her little face. And now that I know she is ready, I am so ready. I'm really starting to feel the effects of being nine months pregnant. Tired exhausted & achy all over. And I just really can't wait to meet my little girl!!

Recently I decided to go a little wild with preggo self pics. I'm way to lazy and tired to take pictures with my camera. So here's a photo dump off my terrible droid (soon to be replaced with an iphone!).

I think my face says "I'm done!" in this one ;)

Ya, I feel a little vain for taking all these pictures of myself, but I guess it's just because I know I won't be preggo much longer. I really want to remember how I looked at the end!

Oh and here is her nursery!

I decided to wait on wall decor until after she is born so I can hang photos of her (specifically a canvas above the dresser!)

7 days until my due date! Thursday is my last appointment (and my birthday!) Hoping for some progress!

My Little Jedi Online Magazine Launch

A very big congratulations to Vesna from My Little Jedi on the launch of her new online magazine today.  The magazine is truly gorgeous and I am proud to have contributed an article to the issue (pages 13-15).  If you haven't already seen it here it is below.  I will post some more of my photos later in the week.

Birthday craft and a new vase...



We are getting ready for
someone's party here .... Lou is just a little excited and has been
helping me get some decorations ready. We are being super original and
going with a fairy theme - Fairy love kicked in a couple of months back
and she is mad on them.  















 We've
been making cupcake toppers, goodie bag fillers and a heap of
decorations. Its been nice to do something together during Evie's nap
time. I must remember to take some photos this year.






We kicked off party season this weekend with a fab party of a
dear friend's little one on Saturday and on Sunday we celebrated the terrible Melbourne
weather by going out for Lunch with some friends. We really wanted to eat at our new favourite place but it must be everyone else's favourite new place too because it was packed with a 20min wait, so we went here instead which was yummo. Oh and I bought this.... how cute!!








Hope you had a great weekend!!
