A new bedroom for my princess

I've been considering re-doing Hayley's room for a while now.  I was so tired of the Hello Kitty theme and feeling restricted.  I wanted to do something girly where I can sometimes change the curtains, add scatter cushions  change the wall art, carpet in her room etc.

So this morning I decided to go and just see what I can find and I'm so happy with the outcome of her room.

She's been sleeping on her big bed, but we took the base of, and we've been accident free for a while now, so I also decided to move her room and but the base of the bed back.  So wish me luck that she does not fall of tonight.

What do you guys think?

So we went and collected Pippie the puppy....

... along with Max her brother.  Oh boy!

So a few weeks ago I wrote a post about Hayley's first puppy, that we are going to name Pippie.

On Friday the owner phoned to say we can come and collect her.  As we got there they already had Pippie seperate from the rest of the puppy's and as we were about to leave, this little creature came out of no where, ran straight to Hayley and they just collected.

That is how we ended up with 2 puppies instead of one. :-)

Pippie is such a gentle little thing.  She was the last born and also the smallest.  But a little tough cookie, already jumping of the couches and chewing everything in her way.  She also sleeps alot!  Way more than other puppies.  She will be running and playing and if you look again she sits up straight, fast asleep.  She is also very independant and does her own thing.

Max, our big boy, is scared, does not try anything he does not feel safe doing.  Wants loads of attention and to be picked up constantly, but he is so cute and loves Hayley.  Hayley also adores him and prefers playing with him and picking him up.

It feels as if our house is filled with 3 toddlers at the moment and it's crazy, but I love every moment spend with my husband child and our new additions.

A lovely day spent at the Botanical Gardens

So the Sunday after my birthday we stopped at the shop and bought some snacks and drove through to the Botanical Gardens.

I love taking Hayley there.

She normally runs around like crazy, we play ball, eat and just spent some family time together.  Best part of all is that it is a brilliant place to take some stunning photos.  I'm no talented photographer and really just own a 'mik en druk' camera, but I always love the photos we get from here the most.

Here is some photo's of our day, we had such an awesome time.

The big 3-0 celebration

So... on 2 February 2013 I turned 30!

We had a braai at our house from 12 the afternoon and had around 30 people over.  It was a super busy day, but I loved every moment.  It was awesome having all my friends, family and loved one's to share this big birthday with me.

It was great fun and the last guests only left our house at 10 the evening.

I was so tired, but happy and I felt so special.

I was spoiled with loads of gifts and I am glad that I ended up having a party.
