Kaelan wanted to help me cook, so I told him he had to put on his apron and his cooking hat (courtesy of Westfield kids rock) and he did! This is my little Master Chef mixing the base for Tim Tam Cheesecake.

POTD 16th Feb 2010 - Cool Change

After what was a horribly hot and humid day yesterday, today we welcomed a cool change! We had a storm that lasted for a few hours so we spent the majority of the day sitting out on the deck enjoying the sweet relief. Kae was a sick little man so he spent most of the day dozzing off in the cool.

POTD 15th Feb 2010

POTD 15th Feb 2010 - Dessert

Today was so hot that it was hard to get motivated to do anything. This is my woeful attempt at dessert. It's just one of those packet mousse things and I tried to make it somewhat more appealing.

POTD 14th Feb 2010

POTD 14th Feb 2010 - My Valentine

Practicing in Manual again, thought these were nice. Couldn't pick just one.

POTD 13th Feb 2010

POTD 13th Feb 2010 - Through the Trees

Well today was a bit of a busy day. Photography course in the morning, come home and we had visitors, a quick trip to the shops and then off to a trivia night. While waiting for proceedings to get underway, I ducked outside to see this. This is one of my first attempts at shooting in Manual Mode.

POTD 12th Feb 2010

POTD 12th Feb 2010 - Nap Time

Today we went to Chermside to meet some friends and Kae had been bugging me all morning, asking when we were going. He barely made it down the road before he crashed in the car and was still asleep after loading him into the pram and walking the length of the shopping centre to the play area.

POTD 11th Feb 2010

POTD 11th Feb 2010 - Bath Time

Bath time for Miss Olivia. A bit out of focus I think, she couldn't wait to get into the bath and wouldn't sit still!!

POTD 10th Feb 2010

POTD 10th Feb 2010 - Billy

Kaelan loves Thomas the Tank and has so many of them he will often sit and play for ages. This is Billy, he's a bright orange train with a goofy looking smile.

POTD 9th Feb 2010

POTD 9th Feb 2010 - Junk Mail

I step onto the deck to find Kae pouring over the Big W catalogue. He can be such an old man!

POTD 8th Feb 2010

POTD 8th Feb 2010 - Lunch!

My lunch - homemade pizza mmmmmmmmm

POTD 7th Feb 2010

POTD 7th Feb 2010 - Bob the buildering

Technically, not POTD because there are 8 but there was no way I could pick just one.

Kaelan and Danny did some "bob the buildering" and put together a table and chairs set from Ikea. So Kae donned his bob the builder hat and away they went.

POTD 6th Feb 2010

POTD 6th Feb 2010 - Chocolate Boy

We don't do this very often but as a treat we went to Baskin Robbins for ice cream and brought it home for dessert. As you can see - Kaelan had chocolate ice cream and judging by the look of him, he loved it!

POTD 5th Feb 2010

POTD 5th Feb 2010 - I heart you

Almost forgot my photo again and this was the best we could come up with.

POTD 4th Feb 2010 - Sleeping Beauty

It was getting late and I forgot about the day's photo, so I grabbed the camera and clicked away at my little sleeping beauty.

POTD 3rd Feb 2010

POTD 3rd Feb 2010 - Snack Time!

A friend of mine brought over some of her homemade cookies and cream cheesecake about a week ago. It was SOOOOOOOO good I had to get the recipe from her! This you see before you is the first attempt and boy was it good!!!

POTD 2nd Feb 2010

POTD 2nd Feb 2010 - Lil blue eyes

My little chicken and her lil blue eyes. Wish I could have edited this one better because I really love this shot.

Photo of the Day (POTD) February 2010

I meant to start this at the beginning of the year but clean forgot about it so I thought I would start from February.

This is POTD for 1st Feb - New Bling!

After we had Kaelan, Danny said he wanted to buy me a ring. Well we went looking and nothing really caught my eye and had no spare money to get one.

Along comes Olivia and Danny insists that I am getting my ring and getting it now. So I did a little looking and this little baby caught my eye.

Three diamonds for the three most important people in my life xx

Photo was hard to take and pretty crappy but you get the idea. Alas this was the closest I could get. Please excuse the shoddy editing.
