Well I think it is fair to say that it has been a while since the last blog. There has just been SOOOO much going on that I haven't known where to start.
The last time you heard from us we were in Bali, so some more photos from there would be a good start. But it was mother's day here last week so I just had to share with you my lovely day first.
In theory I was allowed to sleep in but in reality in meant that I could lay in the comfort of my bed while I listened to the kids trying (but failing) to be quiet. Just before 8am (that is a sleep in around here) my two lovely little darlings came in covered in little heart stickers.
I received some lovely presents including Lego!!!! Most mums would probably find that a bonkers present but for me it is just perfect. Especially because it is something that Ol and I can share together. Well sort of. I didn't want to share all of it with him. Here is a pic of me not sharing it...
I stayed in my PJ's until the kid's lunchtime putting my new construction together. And here is the finished product!
In other non-holiday related news, these two continue to be the loveliest and equally most frustrating little people I've ever met. Ol is going through a real stage at the moment. He is too smart sometimes and is constantly telling us how he feels left out because we are giving Eve all the attention. Eve on the other hand is starting to display signs of nearly being a two year old who needs to test all the boundaries and smiles sweetly at you while she does exactly what you just told her not to. Trying times.
Eve also was lucky enough to graduate to the next level in her swimming classes. I say lucky because I was absolutely floored that she was picked to go up when the other girl in her class could pass for a mermaid or a future olympian. But up she went and now she has to do all these scarier things in her new lesson. I think I'd rather be back in the baby lesson!
Giant boy Ollie looks more and more like a real boy everyday. He seems to have shot up in height quite a bit lately. Perhaps this is helping him to reach the pedals on his big boy bike, although I think it will still be quite a while before the training wheels come off.
And a couple more random shots from around the house this week. Both of Eve because Ol isn't as keen to be photographed at the moment. Here is Eve with one of her dollies. Despite my love of all things boy toy, Eve can sniff out a dolly at ten paces. She feeds them and rocks them in their cot. She is also starting to love Disney Princesses like Snow White and she has discovered how awesome fairies are. I think it is pretty safe to presume this one might be a bit of a girly girl.
