A year in pictures – Day 88

The Little MissAnother swing pic… The Little Miss this time.

Much like the picture of her big brother yesterday I can’t believe how big this lovely girl is getting.

So is a proper chatterbox and is constantly talking away.

She loves drawing (on my walls!) and holding tea parties in her bedroom. She is not keen on going to bed and she loves her pussy cats, except when they are asleep under her bed.

Parenting her and her brother is both the biggest challenge and the most awesome experience in the world.

A year in pictures – Day 87

The Little MIsterMy lovely boy is getting big these days.

He tells me often how much he loves me and without a doubt I adore him.

He loves the iPad and looking for insects in the garden.

He secretly loves his little sister and adores his pussy cats.

He is funny, chatty and cheeky and I am so happy to be called his Mum.

He is keeping me on my toes, simultaneously keeping me young and wearing me out. I wouldn’t have it any other way!

A year in pictures – Day 86

Prodigal KeysHallelujah!!!! Once they were lost but now they are found!!!

The car keys have been missing for about 10 days and we have been using the space ones, but only having one set was making me nervous! I knew that I had lost them somewhere between the car and the house but I couldn’t find them. I had looked in the boot of the car and searched all bags and coats but nothing!

The Mister found them slipped down a small crack in the boot. Apparently when he found out that a replacement set cost about £300 he was extremely motivated to find them!

A year in pictures – Day 85

Mothering SundayMothering Sunday is always tough. A day of mixed emotions. On one hand I miss my Mum so much. On the other hand I am super grateful for the two lovely children that I have. I know so many people who still long to have children and I remember well what the pain of waiting feels like. I am grateful that I now, at least in part, get to experience Mother’s Day as a joyful day rather than a sad day.

Today has been a good day. I had church this morning and sang in worship group which I really enjoyed and then we went out for lunch with my sister and her family, Dad and my cousin Stef and her lovely fiance.

This photo was taken a few weeks ago but I love it. The children gave me a lovely gift of bulbs and a new mug and thermos flask and both had made cards at pre-school and Daddy had also got one. The Little Miss made me laugh a lot though by continually wishing me Happy Birthday. It was very sweet.

Little GardenerIt is time to get out into the garden.

I have planted up loads of potato bags and some plants from my Dad .

Fortunately I have a little helper to assist with the watering.

Amazon PantryFood shopping is so expensive over here and I have decided to see how much cheaper it is to stop at Amazon Pantry.

This was my first order. Very exciting. Let’s see how long it takes for us to use this lot up!

A year in pictures – Day 81

Emergency suppliesOur poor lovely childminder was off sick with a bug today and we had to try and cobble together some childcare.

Thank goodness my lovely sister and cousin were able to help us out.

This week has been pretty ropey at work and it made me smile so much to find a bottle of wine stashed in The Little Miss’ rucksack with the note ‘thought you might need this later on’. Legend.

Spring flowersI adore spring flowers.

They are so bright and cheerful and make me feel instantly happier.

These are especially beautiful and have taken pride of place on my kitchen table.

Best friendsWe are lucky to have tolerant, gentle pussy cats.

Eric, whilst very patient, would only put up with being alternately stroked and kissed for so long!
