153/365 Point and Shoot {Daddy Weekend}

  This week I’m joining in Point and Shoot over at Fat Mum Slim. This weekend was all about Daddy time. Lots of Daddy time. Possibly slightly more than the Daddy in question would have liked. But I call it training. I’ll be leaving on Friday morning for the conference and won’t be back until [...]

142/365 Point and Shoot (An Adventure)

This week I’m joining in Point and Shoot over at Fat Mum Slim. On Sunday, despite being in a pancake-breakfast induced coma of sorts we took the munchkin for a long walk down to the park. This weekend was all about adventures. Thanks to her being in her tricycle it was actually quite a long [...]

86/365 Flying

Riley was catching up on some flying lessons over the weekend, both enjoying the sun in our backyard and on every ride that exists in the local shopping centre. It’s all about the flying. Although weirdly, she’s now scared of the sounds of planes – when she used to just get excited. I’ve ceased even [...]

75/365 Catching the Sun

I wish I had done something wonderfully exciting over the weekend, but between my nausea, voting, watching in horror as the election monstrosity unfolded and dealing with a bout of teething with the munchkin, the best that it got this weekend was sitting in the backyard soaking up some much missed sun. But you can’t [...]

69/365 Allergic to Napping

This is what happens when little people are allergic to taking their nap during the day. All goes along swimmingly well until you notice that they’ve been very quiet and find them passed out on the couch, clutching the iPad at dinner time. I knew I shouldn’t let her sleep for too long. But I [...]

63/365 Pyjama Sunday

Yes, it was 6pm and she’d stayed in her pyjamas all day. It was that kind of Sunday. A Sunday of two breakfasts, and a long lazy nap where we both slumbered for about 4 hours, snuggled up in the big bed. Where I did no housework to speak of and the extent of our [...]

57/365 The Big Smoke

Sunday sunrise from the hotel room. Taken on my entirely crappy mobile phone camera. That crappy camera is soon to be replaced by the iPhone 4. Fast forward please! A girls weekend of musicals (Wicked), shopping (baby clothes) and dining out (favourite Chinese restaurant). All of which was only very slightly tarnished by my beautiful [...]

51/365 Lines of Communication

Sometimes after a busy weekend, things go a bit pear shaped. Riley had a big day on Saturday. Which she loved every minute of. I was at my sister’s 40th birthday and she spent the whole day running around the beach house, convincing people to take her down to the beach, hitting her head on [...]

45/365 My Last Nerve

After a couple of rough days and a sleepless night, I felt like Riley was trampling all over my last nerve. This is when reinforcements come in handy. When all my energy reserves seem tapped out. And my patience is running dry. This is where her Aunt comes in handy. So while I was enjoying [...]

39/365 Lazy Sundays

This is the face of someone who had a 4 hour nap. Note the hair. It was all in keeping on a day where I slept in until after 10 and didn’t get out of my PJs until after 1. Which is really exactly how a lazy Sunday should be. Other highlights included apple berry [...]
