this week...

Another week gone, in a flash it seems. We are hurtling towards our New Zealand holiday, and E's second birthday. Whilst watching your baby grow up is bittersweet, I am for the most part excited to see what the future holds.


Kept E home from daycare on Tuesday with a virus - at one point she started climbing the walls and insisting on "walk! walk!" So I bundled her into quarantine (aka her push bike) and took her out for a bit. Lifesaver. Happy to report she has made a complete recovery.

Had a spectacular start to the morning on Friday when V accidentally took my keys to work along with his own, leaving E and I essentially locked in our unit. I called our  wonderful real estate agent who brought the spare keys out, but unfortunately the electronic swipe they had wasn't working - meaning a trek down several flights of stairs plus calling on a neighbour (bless our lovely neighbours!) to let us out of the garage. Damn security buildings!


Picture me lugging one baby plus bag and baggage, in the rain - it wasn't funny at the time so much, but I can laugh now.


Subsequently, a minor cheer-up session was in order...


One very sheepish husband arrived home bearing these beauties - all is forgiven. It made for a good story! haha


Weekend mornings these days involve blissful sleep ins (bless this child's heart!), then many many stories in bed - Mirabelle the French bulldog is a favourite here!


V and the kiddo are out swimming so I am taking the opportunity to down a hot coffee and do some pointe prep work - pipedream perhaps, but we all need those in our lives.

Happy Saturday!
xoxo

  2. I hope E bounced back quickly! I think my little one has been sick more than she hasn't over the last 4 months since she started daycare. 2 bouts of gastro, tonsilitis, middle ear infection, hand foot and mouth and we're currently battling her third cold/cough. My husband and I both got this cold too ... Seriously rethinking my decision to go back to work :(.

    1. Oh no you poor thing :( Evie was fairly constantly sick for the first 6 months or so of starting daycare but it's definitely improved now, she doesn't tend to pick up too many bugs thank goodness. Hope you are all well xx

  3. We loved the Mirabelle books as well! Every French Bulldog after that became known as a "Mirabelle".

  4. What a pointless blog. No depth or substance. Just a series of non-events strung together by crapola photos of derivative outfits, your kid and coffee.

    1. Soooo pretty much what it says in the description of this page? It takes a special kind of person to read on despite knowing they will hate the subject matter. Come on Anon, you gave us Couchgate 2015, you can do better than that!
