Another gorgeous day

What a lovely day it was again yesterday.
We went to the local oval to fly some kites, sorry forgot to take the camera but the kids love running around in the sunshine.. me too!
The afternoon was spent at home.

End to a lovely day...

Fun filled day

Wow what a busy day we had today.
It started off with me frantically baking some choc chip cookies for my DD's pre-school fete.
Then heading to the fete in unseasonal warmth (27C today, when usually its 21C this time of year!). The kids had a great time!

Here DS enjoys the climbing gym.

DD with her face painted in a rainbow.

Sitting next to her best friend and all her other pre-school friends singing "Give me a home amongst the gumtree".  Too cute.

Then a quick trip home for lunch and a quick nap for DS before heading over to The Entrance to see my sisters (one is visiting from Canberra so havent seen her in 6 months). 

 We went for a walk down to the boulevarde and the kids had a ride on the merry-go-round (thanks Jo for holding onto them LOL).

And another play on another playgym!

Funny enough both sound asleep when their heads hit their pillows tonight.  Dont think im far off it myself.  Goodnight!!

Babies making me clucky

Today i visited my friend who had her baby 3 weeks ago.
And boy was i unexpectantly CLUCKY.... oh he is just so gorgeous and he fell asleep on my chest and he was so warm and cuddly.

I swear i was ovulating on the spot.

DH and i can't have anymore kids so i knew i could never have this again, which in some ways makes me sad but im also a bit relieved as i don't think i could handle being up all night again!
Lucky for me i have two friends with babies due at the end of the year and a couple more next year.

I'm sure i will get my fix of baby cuddles...

I love homemade pizza

I just had to share a photo of the pizza i recently cooked... it was a real labour of love due to roasting all the vegies myself and of course making my own homemade wholemeal pizza base.  Let me know what you think?  Would you eat it???

 

or the whole thing...

Fitness Challenge

I entered a fitness challenge at my local gym 6 weeks ago.
The challenge goes for 12 weeks and the winner receives $800.
I had my first weigh in yesterday and im happy to report 5kg lost with 6cm off the bust and 3cm off the hip/belly area.  I gained 1cm on both my arms and thighs... which i have been assured is just toning up (i hope so!!!!!!!!!).

Going on a date with my Husband

Lately the hubby and i are trying to have 'date lunches' where Nanna minds the kids and we go off by ourselves to try and have some quality us time.
A couple of weeks ago we went for a ride on our motorbike to Wollombi Pub. Here's me out the front. There were so many bikes... and men in leather (woo hoo).

The view from our Balcony on our recent trip to Coolangatta in Qld. I had such a wonderful time, i love it there so much and would move in a heartbeat.. but DH isnt too keen....
The kids loved the animals and DS was really taken with the kangaroos.
Me and DS seconds before a huge Emu walked behind us.. i wasnt too keen on the Emus...
Relaxing in the spa, you can see the pool just behind it.
DS and DH having a lovely lie in....
