 And a little soccer outfit that is just a little big for the moment....

Emergency room...

Last night we had a late night trip to the emergency room.... Oliver hasnt been well and last night he started vommiting so we took him in. They ended up taking some of his blood (broke my heart) and the results came back showing his viral infection is still running rampant in his little body.
2 hours later we got home and dealt with a crying baby all night...
 Ollie has been sick on and off for a month. We are now tired.....

Mr and Mr...

Mr and Mr doing their morning routine!!
Bonding over toothbrushes....

Weekend...

It was a very tiring weekend!!! I am not a fan of BUSY weekends.... I like alot of chill time and then from there we can decide what we want to do - this weekend was pre planned and jam packed - sigh -
BUT it was a good one too. Ollie hasnt been well and he hasnt been sleeping well hence we havent been sleeping well. I am not sure about anyone else BUT i get hell of a grumpy when i am tired.... and i was tired!!
This is how our weekend eneded thankfully. In bed at 7pm and sleeping by 8pm!
Oliver slept perfectly fine last night and I am so happy he is on the mend - we got a full 9 hours sleep last night - heaven!!

NEED!

This was yesterday....
I NEED this today!!
Lolly hasnt been 100% and last night he kept us awake quite a bit - poor boy!

Where did you go?

The other afternoon I fetched Mr Lolly from his day mom.... He was smiling and playing!! When we go home I popped him down and he started playing in the lounge like he normally does... I was busy in the kitchen and all of a sudden he was gone. I could hear him calling me so i went to look for him...
 
 From this....
 To this - he had made his way to the bathroom and was calling me to bath! He loves his baths!!!

 Check out Mr frown - the flash makes him frown....
 and then came the SPLASHING!!!!

I feel so lucky to have a happy eater, bather and sleeper!!

It ended up being delicious!
Luckily we are all feeling better :)

Precious....

There is nothing more precious than a sleeping baby!!!

We find ourselves sneaking in to his room 5/6 times a night to take a peep at this sleeping treasure!!

Company...

On sunday we were on church duty which means we go in, set up tea, coffee, water stations - serve and clean up. Myself, being a mom to a busy 1 year old, was not much help but thankfully Mike was able to pick up the slack and do my part in the morning.
I stayed home with Lolly in the evening so I could put him to bed and Mike went to serve in the evening alone.
I dont mind some alone time, its nice to jump on the couch and watch some Greys or somthing Mike isnt too fond of BUT I do feel a little lonely if I am alone alone. Luckily I had these two to keep my company.
 Timmy snuggled right up to me... it was lovely!!
Love these pups :)

It has begun...

Our kitchen revamp has started! Whooo Hooooo!!
This is a snap shot of what it looked like before we started....
 

And after we started.....
So lovely and open!!
Lots to do still - floors, removing wall tiles, putting our new oven in place, new blinds and much more!
I cant wait for our new kitchen! I have made a folder of all the things I want to cook and bake in my new kitchen once its done.....
Looking forward to being more domestic in my new kitchen :)

More delicious in this...

A little while ago my husband suprised me with something I had been pining for - a Le Crusete plunger...

And I tell you no lies..... coffee tastes better being made in it :)

Brunch = happy!

A few weekends ago we had brunch with Ryan and Wella - we are finding eating out much easier now as we can bribe Ollie with some chippies and he is happy while we eat :)
We went to food lovers which has a delicious breakfast (my favourite meal)...

 Aunty Wella LOVES Lolly and tries to grab him every chance she gets :)
BEST AUNT EVER!

Its awesome having family close for those last minute plans!!

My mothers day...

My mothers day was a good one....
On saterday we celebrated with Mom and dad brits as sunday was going to be a busy one - we went and made breakfast for them...
 Then Lolly went for a ride in Nan's wheelchair...
 On sunday was was awoken by my two best boys, Mike had tea in his hands and Ollie has a pressie for me - He had decorated the card himself :)

I got very spoilt.....
We were on church duty yesterday so there were no other plans besides that - next weekend I was promised a coffee / breakfast date somewhere which I look forward to :)

Being a mom has been the most humbling experience of my life... I cant imagine life without my Ollie!

The best slushy maker ever!

This is my new favourite toy! My husband was gracious enough not to sigh (too loud) when I said "I NEED IT"
 This was some ice coffee that turned into a coffee slushy in about 5minutes - DELICIOUS!!
It is fantastic - we have done milkshakes, yoghurt, fruit juices - its the perfect pudding :)

Voting day...

Yesterday was voting day for our provincial and national elections - we voted to say our piece.
We started our day with breakfast out...
 
 Mr love stealing some of our chips and noshing them!!
And then came the playtime - we now sit outside right by the play area so we can take turns to play with lolly while the other one watches.... he LOVES it!
 
I got to sit and watch my two fav boys play while I drank some delicious coffee...

Then we voted, took us 5 minutes! What a pleasure.

 
Wimpy - my favourite place in the world gave all voters free coffee :)
Best part about yesterday - we got to spend the day with Lolly instead of being at work!

For the love of music...

Mike LOVES music.. I enjoy it but he LOVES it and wants to pass his love for music onto our son. He often brings out his guitar before breakfast on weekends and him and Lolly jam!
I love these two... our little family!!

Mr sore...

What a week it has been - my folks left for a month holiday and the day before they left Lolly got a little sore on his chin.... day later he was swollen so much he couldnt even smile properly.
Sickness why do you come when the grandparents are away - it is to make me stronger or to annoy me? BUT after two sleepless nights, a trip to the doctor, two lots of medication and a precious babyshower we could not attend due to Lolly being contagious he is doing MUCH better!
Poor mr monster!!
