Seriously melt worthy : )
On another note there is something wrong with the comments system at the moment and posts will show as having no comments or maybe one- you have to actually click on the post title to see all of the comments but the front page will still be showing as zero comments.
So this is a massively random post of lots of little bits and pieces. Simon is away this week in Sydney for work and so I have my first week alone juggling both boys and everything that comes with that including Flynns first day of Kindy.
I always struggled to get Flynn to smile for the camera. Right from the very start he just did not want to have it !! I am so enjoying the abundance of smiles that this little love bug is happy to dish out on a regular occasion and even better if I am able to catch them on camera.
I am so looking forward to starting little Olivers scrapbook which is happening this weekend- that pile of 300 photos has grown by another few hundred and so I need to start : )
So I haven’t posted a recipe in a little while, I have been baking but just my old tried and true recipes – sticking to what I know as it is easy. Last week though we were having some friends over on a Sunday afternoon, then they called to say they were coming early- like 3 hours early and I had literally just stepped into the kitchen to bake afternoon tea, oh and I was out of butter !!
So a quick flick through a few recipe books to find something that did not require butter- not as easy as it sounds and I came across this little slice recipe. It was so easy and turned out super yummy and so I thought I would share it with everyone. It is just perfect for a throw together snack for guests.
It doesn’t happen very often in my car anymore, and I am sure most of you out there are the same ; ) But when it does…. it is oh so very quiet.
I am not sure about you but I still find leaving my little babies hard even after 3 years and amazing loving Grandparents. I am starting to use this little notepad from Kikki to record stuff people need to know who are looking after our little ones.
With the amount of photos that I take there are not too many that actually take my breath away when I go to edit them, and this was one of those photos : ) It was the last of about 40 odd photos I took at this little mini shoot and it is absolutely my favourite photo of Flynn in a long time and one I will treasure always.
I have in the past done a few posts on photo organisation but now that we have 2 little boys to take millions of photos of I have had to come up with a new system to keep organised. As I scrapbook most of our photos this Creative Memories Power sort box hold mostly old photos from our childhoood and travels pre children. Although I have scrapbooked both our childhoods and travels we still have a lot left over. The current photos it holds will mostly be scrapbooked and so I will just go through every 6 months or so and updated the labelled tabs as they become empty.
So this is the Creative Memories power sort box I am using-
I am humbled this weekend by the thought that this is the best time of my life. Right now. This is most important thing I will ever do and there is nothing more important than mothering these two boys.
It is really rainy and super cold here this weekend, so I am thinking I will be spending lots of time snuggling on the couch and doing lots of inside activities, one of which is sorting through all of my photos and creating a new organising system in the house. I have noticed already with 2 children how much harder it is to keep on top of the photo load and so I am really excited about this.
I have a lot to sort through so some of the weekend will be spent here-
