making me smile today:

  • over-ripe bananas on sale at the green grocer today - I'm going to make a double batch of banana choc chip muffins and try to freeze some of them ;)
  • when I started typing tonight the caps lock was on...some little person has been exploring in here :)
  • great prices on some new clothes - I love DFO lol
  • a pot plant that has survived living in this 'pot plant murdering' household...and the poor dinosaur limbs that have been removed from one of Joshy's toys
  • these pics finally made it up on the wall (in the toilet no less!) they have been ready to go for months...I'm not sure exactly how long...less than a year I hope. Frames I got on sale from Kmart and flower prints are from Ikea. I think it's a good thing Ikea is not in Canberra...
  • our lemon tree...it's not even 6 months old yet. cute little fella
  • lots of pink goodness around the house! making headbands out of scrapping supplies :)
  • our new table arrived!!!
but the BEST thing today that has me smiling, is this:

'can I help with that mummy?' and with the way I was snapping away with the camera, he says, 'I look like I'm a star'.

You definitely are a star darling :)

hey good idea - I should have a 'come join me for banana muffins' morning tea or something! lol. probably wouldn't get organised enough for that this week.

I know...white chairs. But they're washable :) and it was that or black (too much of a statement) or red (would get sick of that pretty quick).

I LOVE how the flower prints turned out. Feel free to do it too, I even have some flower pics left!

And I'm going to go write tues 31st on the calendar RIGHT NOW! thank you!

Your post made me smile ... what a lovely way to start my day!!!

I have pics of Joel at about the same age with the vacuum cleaner ... he loved to help before he realised it was actually work!!!

And did I see green? Kylee???

Is that new top green???

Oh I hope so ... I really hope so!!!

I had to laugh at the pot plant. I have decided that pots cannot come into my house!!!! We have a bit of a plant cemetery under our deck...very sad!

Kylee said...

lol Heather...I'll enjoy it while it lasts :) I'm glad what was making me smile, made you smile too!

But you've ruined it for me...I hadn't thought about how that top was green til you so ruthlessly pointed it out...I seriously doubt i can wear it now. Except mum did point out that it was the type of green that goes REALLY well with pink...

I noticed that plant and remembered a bit of a conversation about pot plants the other day mel, and got really excited about how unusually healthy it looked!! So I had to take a picture :)

No pot plant dares venture into my house ... they usually have a healthy desire to live ...

C'mon, Kylee!! That green would look sooooo good on you!!! You could wear it with ANY colour because green is SOOOOOOOO versatile!!!

You can do it ... I know you can!!
