My Baby turns 2 !

Taylor turned 2 on Tuesday the 23rd this week. She had her party on Sunday with just family and close friends at a local pub for lunch. After lunch we had her cake here which she enjoyed the most. Taylor got some really nice pressies so thanks family for making it a special day for her. On her actual birthday I took the day off work and she had the day off creche. We picked up John and headed into Southbank for a nice lunch. I cant believe that she is now 2 - that I am a mother of a 2 year old! It has gone so quick but I'm glad its gone quick because she is just a joy to watch grow in to this little person with a huge personality.

Thats all for now, quiet times coming up which is what I m looking forward to, things are nice and quiet at work and not much on the social calendar which is great!

Ooops forgot the photos

Too funny...........
Taylor and I went over to Bek's yesterday as it was her birthday on Thursday. Happy 28th Birthday Bek. We took the kids to Maccas for lunch and they played outside. Taylor needed help on the play equipment to get up on the slide so after about 4 times I was a bit pooped. I sat down in the sun to relax next to Bek and Sam got a bit annyed that Taylor wasnt following him up. He asked if we could help her up. Yes soon, let her try, dont worry were the responses he got. Well he got really annoyed and said to us "come on parents! you gotta help Taylor!". At 3.5 years of age sam is just a scream. After Taylor fell over he gave her a cuddle to comfort her which was very cute also. After lunch we wwent back to Beks and played outside. The sun got to Taylor a bit so she tried on Beks Dolce & Gabbanas for size.

Last night Jacqui, Caleb and I went along to the White Diamonds film which is a documentary on Kylie Minouges return to the stage after breast cancer. It was so good. I thoroughly enjoyed it. She really is amazing, I have liked her for a long time now and saw her in concert a couple of years ago. Her show is just amazing and she really does put a massive effort inito it. We had a nice dinner before hand so it was nice to just relax and go to a movie which I dont get to do very often.

Tonight John and I taught Taylor how to play Hide and Seek. Very funny. Especially when it was time for me and Taylor to hide. John yelled out "are they in the bedroom?" and Tay yells out "NO!" She just kept giggling and want to get up and show herself!
Arent kids just too funny.

On Tuesday Taylor turns 2 so tomorrow is the family lunch which I am looking forward to. Taylor will just love having everyone she loves around her.

Catching up..............

Well its only been 7 days since my last blog. I finally feel as though I am catching up on things. Maybe its the fact that John isnt here anymore and Taylor and I have got ourselves into a routine.
Back to last Monday, I had a sickie from work. I needed to get well and just vegout which I did and I felt so much better for it. Tues & Wed work then Thurs shopping at Southland with Jacqui and Taylor was back to swimming on Friday then Friday night i went over to Jorja's for a crop. I havent scrapped since the retreat so it was nice to get back into it. Saturday was Paperific which Jac and I went along to. Met up with some friends and some we hadnt seen in a while so that was good. This year was fairly ordinary in terms of the location. It was on Docklands in a tent and small and squishy. By lunchtime Saturday there already had been over a thousand people through. Just crazy.

Sunday was a trip to Ballarat to see my Great Aunt & Uncle who are 86 and 90 respectively. They were celebrating thier 63rd wedding anniversary. Can you believe 63 years?? They are the lovliest people and unfortunately didnt have kids. They adore Taylor and she is always on her best behaviour there which is great.

Today, went to Chaddy with Tyalor and bought her some new clothes, sussd out what she would like for her birthday next week and bought her a birthday dress too. This afternoon we went down to Brighton Beach at the pier where Tay had a play and I took some photos of my new car. Well not so new now as I have had it over a month now!

So there we are, up to date.

PS. Dont forget to check out the crop for kids blog spot, a new online class is coming up.

I have been so lazy!
or busy ? and quite sick as well. I have had the worst bout of sinusitis I have ever had. Although I only started getting it this year but gee it was painful. Yet i trudged on, not so much at work though! My hubby left home last week. From his home office that is. Yay!! John used to run his business from home now he has gone into an office in Hawthorn with an accounting firm. He is still running his own business just not from home. Which means more room for me to spread out with my scrapbookiing! Doesnt mean I am getting anything done though scrapbooking wise. I took today off work to recover and catch up but its nearly 3pm and not one inch of scrapping done. I should be typing up the minutes of the last crop for kids meeting but my brain isnt working that hard at the moment. School hololidays over, not that they affect me as Taylor goes to creche when I work, I just stay clear of shopping centres. I caught up with Bek and her kids Sam and Caitlyn on Friday. Bek bought Taylor some georgeous goodies from Bali. I will post a photo soon. Friday night was Crop for kids meeting then Saturday was an Undercoverwear party then dinner with Jacqui then the big day on Sunday - BATHURST. End result was extrememy bad for Holden lovers with Ford in numbers 1, 2 nd 3 position. Although if any ford driver had to win it could be Criag Lowndes which he did. My fav Greg Murphy bought the 1st holden home in position number 4. I must take some photos of my new car, i have my new plates on and I have just been too lazy! or busy?
