Yummy Muffins

Mia & I baked some banana muffins this morning & Mia got her first experience of licking the beaters, boy did she love it, & i loved watching her try to fit a whole beater in her mouth, contort her tongue to get that bit... just...there...

Precious Moments

This morning Mia was so excited to find her Daddy still in bed when she woke up, she knew it meant that Daddy would be with her all day, yeah. So Mia & I joined Shortty in bed for morning cuddles. I asked Mia for a kiss, which she gave me, then quickly turned to her daddy to give him a kiss also, then back to me. She did this 5 or 6 times, Shortty & I we were in tears of laughter at the end, Mia was squealing in delight, she thought it was such a fun game, and we could have played it for hours.

My Birthday

Today we went to Healsville Sanctuary. I had an awesome day, the weather was great, maybe a little to warm for some. Thank you to everyone who came to celebrate my birthday with me, I can not explain how much I appreciate it!! We especially loved the bird shows, it was amazing how much Mia enjoyed them, she really focused on the birds as they came in to land or flew over her head, she amazes me! I'm looking foward to going back & seeing what we missed this time. Thanks mum for my cake!! What's a birthday without a birthday cake!

Octopus Baby

Today we decided once we got home to not waste the beautiful sunshine & to go to Balnarring for a picnic. Dan & Shane came too. We had such a great time, felt like home as we sat at the park opposite the General Store (our general store!) and ate our fish & chips. Then we headed for a walk on the beach & made Mia into a beautiful Octopus Baby. It had cooled down by this stage but we didn't care & neither did she, when there is love, laughter & friends you are always warm!!

God's Promise

The photo doesn't do it justice, but oh my, what a promise!! Gods wonders are so much more spectacular than mans! How beautiful is his artwork?!

Swimming...

Daddy took Mia to swimming lessons today & didn't she love it, she misses him so much when he is at work, we both do!

Both we're exhausted afterwards though!!

Mia's Dedication

What a beautiful day, the sun was shining (maybe a little too much but i wasn't complaining) it was lovely & warm (maybe a little to warm, but i didn't mind) & most importantly people who care about our little princess came to share in a day of promises, promises made by Shortty & me to Mia & to God, promises made by people who are part of Mia's life to Mia.

So much fun, after the formalities, swimming, playing, laughing, great times.

Thank you to all who made the effort to be part of such an important day to Shortty, Mia & I, thanks to Uncle Ken for dedicating our little girl to Gods care, trusting He will surround her with His angels as she grows into a beautiful young girl, teenager & finally woman.
