7 days to go!

I’ve been smiling a lot lately, might be the fact that the 7 day count down has begun till I go to Adelaide for some over due mum time or it could be that my little princess has learnt the art of using words!! I love hearing her ask for a bicket (biscuit) or singing along with that Beiber boy “baby baby baby”

What else is making me smile today;

Our Playschool moment

A few bits of paper, 5 plates and a lot of electrical tape and boom baby we have a car
I guess some of my time at uni must have done something… I thought we did a pretty good job

Lilly loved it she promptly filled it up with big pink bear, Horton the elephant (bet you cant guess what we watched this week) jemima, pink bear, and Stan plonked her self down and demanded a push… as you can imagine mummy didn’t comply for very long so Lilly took to pushing her friends up and down the hall.

I do feel though maybe a bad habit was discovered as we walking in the room to discover this:


Listening to Lilly talk on the phone

Listening to Lilly talk on the phone is like walking down central Hong Kong “hite, ya, hmmm” and the whole time she is nodding her head and waving her hand about…. I hope this isn’t an imitation of me, it looks ridiculous!!

Feeding ducks
Lilly and daddy’s favourite together time is feeding the ducks, as soon as my Szymon gets home from work he asks “should we feed the ducks?” and straight away Lilly is in the kitchen on the floor trying like crazy to get her boots on…once she has succeeded (with a lot of help from mummy) its outside with the seed to be mobbed by 8 always hungry ducks!


Birthdays

Everyone loves a birthday and today is a very special birthday!! My nephew Jackson turns the big one today!! Its been a hard stressful year for my sister and she has come out of it like a hero! HAPPY BIRTHDAY JAC JAC!!

till next time keep smiling
Sarah


P.S. right now I’m smiling at my little girl cuddled in to my neck after asking for “cuggles”, oh it melts my heart!!!

rainy day

i love a rainy day!
especially on a weekend day when the three of us are forced to spend time together!! (sucks to be my szymon who would love nothing more then to disappear outside with his beloved lawn mower!)

Whats making me smile this wet long weekend?
Baking
my szymon suggested a small bake off to ward off the sarah crazys. the race was then on to get to the fridge first, to be the one who gets to use the last of the butter (probably should have been more organised!) i won and the chocolate chip cupcakes (in the shape of stars) was lillys choice. what fun it is to bake with lilly who has the same baking method as me "the more the mess the better the outcome!"













with all the laughing and banging in the kitchen my szymon couldn't help but come and see what was going on.... bad idea my love!!


Sleep ins!

Lilly woke up at 5 this morning and decided that she needed cuddles in bed, usually this results in jumping on top of mummy and daddy till mummy cracks it and gets up (defiantly not something that makes me smile) this morning however as i was getting out of bed, my szymon jumped up and demanded i go back to sleep he then took our early rising daughter to the lounge and together they drew, had breakfast, read books and built big towers of Lego whilst watching informercials staring Mr T...ahh my hero!!
okay the sleep in only lasted till 7:30 but when you are the mum of lilly that's better then nothing!!
now as my little princess demands some pre nap attention i must away....
until my next smile....keep smiling
sarah
p.s. whats making me smile right now; the promise of an afternoon full of dinosaurs!!

hello!!

I've been inspired by other blogs I've been following and i thought "hey i can do that!!" so here i am...

my Szymon always reminds me its good to keep crazy in a bottle sometimes, well I'm sorry folks that's not going to happen here!! your going to get me being me!!

so what has made me smile today...

Lilly,
Lilly is obviously going to be a regular feature on this post due to the fact she makes me smile daily and she is my full time, 24 hours and a day, 7 days a week etc job, and 95% of the time i wouldn't change a thing about her! especially when she dances with me around the lounge to Lady Gaga, Micheal Buble' and the Venga Boys. (we are currently on a break from such dance).

mum and dad getting home,
mum and dad have been on holidays in tassie for the last 3 weeks and oh my lord it has been the longest 3 weeks of my life...(that is clearly an Exaggeration as anyone who has ever been pregnant would know) i have missed my morning phone conversations with my ma...... and i know for a fact the sisters have missed her too!! we have actually had to talk to each other often instead of through mum.....what an inconvenience! :) WELCOME HOME MUM AND DAD!!!!!!

starting a new project
i went to a quilt extravaganza last weekend to get my quilting mojo back and well...lets just say it might have worked to well.... since last weekend i have made a skirt for Lilly (didn't fit but that's not the point), a small koala for a little girl in England (a tit for tat pressy), and dolls house (possibly the best thing i have ever made in my life.....stay tuned for a whole blog dedicated to this house) and now i have started and jelly roll quilt.... love starting things....i just wish i loved sticking at things as much! though i do aim to finish heaps of stuff this year (famous last words)

long weekend
i get my Szymon for 3 WHOLE DAYS...... i sure this doesn't make him smile though.... when i said he likes me to keep crazy in a bottle well... it doesn't always fit and sometimes it leaks out all over him!! i just cant seem to get enough of him when he's home on the weekend.

that's probably enough for today don't want to overload you with my insanity in my first blog.....

till later keep smiling!!

p.s right now I'm smiling at Lilly attempting to walk around the house in her daddy's work boots.....
