HAPPY BIRTHDAY HECTOR!

Hector started his birthday by bumping into a bundle of presents that were waiting for him outside his door.

The opening begins....

(Florence didn't seem to mind getting sat on during the process)

Hector got lots and beautiful cards from his friends and family.....he got some great gifts too, although I wasn't so thrilled about the wrapping of Neil and Jays one that arrived on the courier this morning.

they both loved it as these pics show





That crane is bigger than him!

Kindy was on the agenda this afternoon, where I found him sweeping the sandpit with Magnolia.

He'd mentioned to me earlier that he wasn't that keen on going to kindy because he was scared of being sung Happy Birthday to. Looks like he got over that.

This is turtle time. The kids duck down until the teacher sees their parent and they are dismisssed. Hector is typically ALWAYS last to be chosen, even though i am there early for pick up, but today he was dismiss first! GO HECTOR!

Green Smoothie Craze!


In a bid to improve my energy I've taken on green smoothie creating... this is what I've concocted so far:

  • Celery, banana, kiwifruit, tap water
  • Celery, sprouts, broccoli, banana, soda water and lime juice
Things are definately intensifying... look the the depth of this one!

  • Banana, pear, bok choy and broccoli, water
  • Kiwifruit, silverbeet, bok choy, soda and lime
  • Banana, parsley, sprouts, soda and lime


Do I feel energized or is it just in my head? We wrapped up Hectors birthday presents last night and I was so excited about it, maybe it was the excitement more than the greens?

Its a Party!

We celebrated Hector's upcoming birthday today at Lollipops. It was crazy! And I LOVED not having to clean up cake from the carpet.

Rocket Birthday Cake

Ready for Blast Off! This little beauty only kept me away until just before midnight last night. The blue fingers gave me a bit of a fright this morning however - totally worth it seeing his face when he saw it.

Naked to clothed.

My very PINK girl

I have to admit I love all the pink - not that I didn't love blue, I just LOVE pink!

While the kids bathroom is out of action this is where it all happens for Florence Eliza in the evenings..
