january 8th | my sky

Our Summer weather has not been very exciting this year in Sydney. There has been rain. And lots of it. And more rain. Over the last week, we've finally had a few days of good swimming weather. It's been bliss. I love Summer!

But right now, my sky is cloudy. where's my sun gone??

january 7th | my favourite

This is my favourite flower in my garden. When we moved into our place 7 years ago, I claimed this rose bush as my rose bush. I love it. So pretty when it flowers.

Yep, these 2 little guys right here. They make me smile alright! They love storytime and I love reading to them. Especially when it's bedtime, because it means they will be off to bed very soon! lol ;)

january 5th | something I wore

This cute little Summer dress is so comfy and pretty. It's a bit of a big deal to me because I bought it last Summer in the sales and it was around the time that I finally fit into dresses properly after losing weight. I still can't believe I can wear dresses :) I love wearing them now, even if I do still have a bit of weight to lose!

january 4th | letterbox

well, well, well! I love the Postman. He brings me such lovely presents! Today, I got a delivery of some things that I ordered from Cath Kidston. I ordered it last week, and here it is today! So quick.


Bet you want to see what was in the box, huh??????

oh, well, you know, just an awesome new table cloth made from oil cloth so I can wipe it down after the kids make a mess, some cool canisters for the kitchen, some cake tins and some dotty pencils. Feels like it's Christmas all over again!
