Elizas pouty face

When Eliza is not happy she doesnt cry all that much she will just do this pouty face, it makes us laugh.

My first and last barbie birthday cake

What a disaster alicias birthday cake was , It took 2 cakes (first one only half made it out of the pan) 4 packet mixes and well alot of my sanity oh and AlOT of icing (big patch up job at the back). Barbie is being held up by popsicle sticks and there is a hole in the back of the cake and she kept falling out....or sinking down the middle.
I was icing the cake and it was so hot the icing spots were melting and i said to alicia "This is the hardest cake i have ever made" and Alicia said back to me "But it's the most beautiful cake i have ever seen". So she was happy in the end and thats what matters right....who cares about the imperfections i see as an adult.Oh there it is sideview of the back of the cake lobsided and a sinking barbie packed with sooooo much icing.

Alicias 5th Birthday

Cupcakes alicia took to Pre-school


Alicia had told me that she wanted streamers and balloons on her brithday just like we did for daddys birthday....after she woke up a little she was loving all the streamers and happy birthday signs we had up in the house for her.She did not stop playing with her new play makeup all morning.
We had a nice day at the park and alicia had her best friend Havanna over for the night. When she was at the park she said "This is the best day i have ever had".

Three pretty girls at the church doorAfter the wedding we had some time to kill on St kilda beach .This is classic picture of Tyler licking up his snot...its a regular thing latelyAt the reception with the bride and groom. Alicia called anne marie "The wedding girl" and was mesmorised with her dress and kept touching the beading on it. Tyler called her "bootiful girl".Tyler what trouble he got up to at the reception, pouring salt all over his bread roll,Spilling his whole glass of ice cold apple juice on him, hiding in the curtains behind the bridal table and constantly running away to the restaurant next door....I really wish i did not wear high heels that day chasing him all night. Everyone else just laughed and thought he was so cute.Daddy dancing with his baby girl...she adores her daddy.

Today we went to the wiggles centre with some friends. The kids had a great time there was so much to do all day. I had a great time too just sitting down relaxing with a hot chocolate..no actually tyler came and drank my hot chocolate....but i did still relax while the kids played.
Eliza didn't come with us ....she is still in Time out for faking it so she could go back to Hospital.... ...jk we kept her home with grammy so she didnt get any sicker.

Tyler "Beep beep driving in my Big Red Car"The plastic balls were one of the favouritesThen there was all that climing (up the wrong way) and slidingIt was just too much fun and they needed to take a rest.
They look alike don't you think.

Naughty Eliza

So Eliza decided to have a convulsion on Tuesday morning and get taken to hospital in an ambulance. For a day she had us worried that she was going to go down the same path as she did last June. But as you can see from the pictures she is Just fine , it turns out she just had a bad reaction to the flu. We joke and say she just wanted a little holiday away as she looked so happy and healthy in her little crib and was like a little kitten pulling on her drip chord and links. We joke about it but at the same time we are really glad she is o.k and is back home after 2 nights in hospital. We love her so much but think she is a little naughty with her hospital visits and she has now had a good talking to about not going back to hospital at least for the rest of the year.
