A girly night in

Last Friday, I had the girls over. We were meant to go out for dinner but the husband had to work late so they came to me instead. We ordered in Korean and talked the night away. AND performed mini make overs on each other. I know. It's not the best adult choice of past time activity. But it was really nice to have a girly night in every now and than. And God knows how much I need that from time to time.

Another lazy Sunday

Just another one of our simple walks to our local park down the street. Funny how the simplest things leave such strong imprints in your life.
Here's Annie getting all "up-tight" about a little spec on her shoes!

Pictures from birthday brunch

Ok. I have now gone past my temporary depression caused by my age. And am ready to share pictures of my surprise birthday brunch. Enjoy!

And yes. It's the same dress as my last post. I do own more than one dress.
A shot out to Jas. Thanks for being my unofficial photographer for the day!

At the park

A couple of weekends ago, we met up with a couple of friends and their two little boys to spend a warm Saturday afternoon together at a park. It is really nice to have friends who are at the exact stage of life to ours. And to be able to share all the ups and downs of parenting over a cuppa every now and than is just priceless.

Our friend's first born "J" is just 1 week older than Annie so they are at an age where they are able to occupy themselves for a good 15 to 20 mins (if we are lucky). That means we get to actually sit down and chat a little, which is fantastic. Of course we also have our 2nd born to care for but after having used to taking care of two children, having to care for just one is a walk in the park.

Annabel has always been a very careful and guarded child. And for that reason, she is never usually adventurous at playgrounds. J on the other hand is the complete opposite. Being true to his boyish make out. He is adventurous and is very skilled with his hands and feet. So I am always very keen to get the two together to hopefully entice the little adventure junkie in Annie to come out and play. They have been "friends"since they were babies so it's really nice to see them finally interact and play with each other and having mini chats of their own.

Anyhow. I really wanted to share some pictures she took on her own with my compact digital camera that afternoon. Not too bad for her first attempt me thinks *proud mum beam*.


They were trying to take a picture of each other at the same time. How cute is that! A fail shot
