Blue Skies

You should see the day we are having up here... it is beautifully stunning.  A truly spirit uplifting kind of day.  Gorgeous.

And the mail-men have brought me a lot of lovin today... like this: 

Won over on Juliet's blog from Deb's fab new shop.  Delicious....


Other Lovin this week:
Wednesday:  The smell of fresh baking filling the house... nom nom noms : )
Thursday:  Waking up to a snoring little angel face beside me - melting heart love...

And now I am going to do something I never do... make a cuppa and go and sit in this glorious sun for 5 minutes :)
Have a Happy weekend!

Linking up here.

Back in the saddle

After a few days hiatus I'm returning to my bloggy.

Down and out with sickness for a while now... as soon as we all thing we're almost at the end... Boom!  On comes the next round even worse than before... Argh!!! Am over it!! Bugs bugs go AWAY!

Am grateful for my lovely girls and how they survive these things though... they still burst with life and happiness but at a slightly slower and sensitive pace!

And I've missed a few days so catching up on Highlights:

Thursday:
- a wonderful birthday with many surprises, hubby home, dinner out and extra special presents.

Friday:
- Liezel finding her voice and chatting at high volumes for all to hear and take note!

Saturday:
- A lovely surprise birthday lunch with close friends and family.

Sunday:
- Anya telling me that she was going to come to do the grocery shopping with me: "Anya's coming with Mummy to go shopping...And I'm going to have a fluffie and a man (gingerbread man)...And I'm going to be a very very good girl for Mummy..."  Irresistibly cute.

Today:
- Making glittery cotton wool sheep pictures with the girls.

Off to do some work now that's happily been neglected too!

Sleep tight

The warm sun, our model dog and phantom cat.

Sun & Rain

Jeepers it was cold this morning! But gorgeous...that is of course until it rained again! Which I don't mind at all really, especially when the house is warm and cosy and the kids are happy! And they are happy, though a bit sick at the moment :(

I never fail to be amazed by my children and their ability to keep going even when very unwell. Sure they get a tiny bit "sensitive" but overall remain happy and completely unfazed during a sick spell - mind over matter? Or is it just that they haven't learned yet that this is the one time things can be all about them? Long may it last whichever the case!

Today's Highlights:
- Liezel cooing, smiling and chatting with me instead of eating...She really needs to eat, but it's impossible not to forget about the food and joining in on the conversation. Love.

Sleep tight
