A belated 2nd birthday post
Monday, June 29th, 2009What kind of slack tart mother leaves it until almost two weeks after your birthday to write a far too brief milestone post? The one who is currently enjoying your 6am starts to the day, nap fighting and insistence that I lie next to your de-sided cot big girl bed while you fall asleep, never [...]
Partying like it’s 2008
Wednesday, December 31st, 2008Here I am already in my PjJs, considering a cup of chamomile tea rather than a glass of wine and wondering if I will actually be awake at midnight.

Getting down to busyness
Monday, February 4th, 2008You’d think that after the resounding success that was A’s birthday party I’d have time to sit down and write up a witty and brilliant synopsis of the celebrations to be accompanied by several arty party shots on my brand spanking new blog site. Right? You’d be wrong. Inlaws have just left and builder is [...]
It’s all happening
Thursday, January 31st, 2008Tomorrow I will be braving the supermarket and spending way too much cashola on sugar and preservative laden non food and plasticky crap for A’s birthday party. And let’s not forget the cake, the butterfly cake, the BUTTERFLY cake that miss A has been telling all and sundry about, the one she keeps gazing at [...]
