SilverPear: December 2011
http://silverpear.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 29, 2011. Celebrations, celebrations everywhere and way too much to drink. We have been in a whirl of festivities over here, starting with Evie's 2nd birthday party! The much-anticipated George and dine-saw cake! It took forever and was the reason our guests arrived while we were still tidying the family room. Luckily our guests were all family of one sort or another, so all very relaxed. Let the present opening commence. And let it continue. Especially if they contain fairy dresses.

SilverPear: September 2011

Tuesday, September 27, 2011. I don't think I've told my lovely readers (for you are all lovely, small and select group that you are) about the new residents at our house. Here is one:. Here's my other new baby. Isn't she beautiful? Her name's Cora, in case you were wondering. And also in case you were wondering, no I am not usually the kind of person who names her appliances. But the KitchenAid is so much more than an appliance! My kingdom for a pantry! I chose Almond Cream over the flashier, more obvious.

Wednesday, March 24, 2010. 3 month letter to my peachy girl. Darling Evie Flora,. You are 3 months old. It is hard to believe that much time has passed since I saw your dear little squishy face for the first time, but you also seem to have been part of our family forever. You have accomplished many things this month, including rolling from your tummy to your back, laughing, cooing and ‘talking’ up a storm and sleeping all night with just one feed! Well, the sleeping one only just happened last night, but...

Saturday, August 20, 2011. 19 months of Evie Flora. Happy 19 months my darling littlest girl,. This letter is late, I confess. It's hard to find the two-hand-typing time needed to write down all the wonderful things you do and are, but I think about them all the time. Soon Daddy will be writing your 20 month letter, in fact you are 20 months tomorrow, so I am only just in time. So what are you doing at the moment? Right now you are in the playroom with your beloved daddy and Abi. You don't really lik...

Saturday, October 22, 2011. Sweets to the sweet, sugar to.not me. I'm not quite sure how it's happened, but I somehow appear to be going - sugar free. Also moving to the raw end of the scale. Now, I am in no way obsessive or particularly concerned with what I eat or don't eat. I have a reasonably good metabolism (thanks Dad! I have of course been in much better shape. Honeymoon shape, to be precise. 57 kilos, could-run-12km, visible abs kind of shape. See below for illustration. But what to do? I'm sure ...

Wednesday, January 25, 2012. Happy holidays nearly over. We have had such a lovely holiday. Hot, hot, hot NYE. My beautiful sister set up a paddling pool and sprinkler for the kids at her otherwise-very-cool-20something party. When Dylan heard he said, "what's a sprinkler? Poor deprived children of water restrictions. Splashing on the path. I love this one. Bathing beauty. Sharing an inter-generational interest in fart noises. Something everyone can enjoy! We made stuff too. My girls love their craft.

Thursday, October 14, 2010. Darling little peachy one,. You can also sit up very strongly now and love to play with anything that makes a noise, such as bells, zills, maracas and saucepans. You love it when any of us join in with the noise making and laugh and laugh. I love you darling, darling girl. What a gift you are. Labels: Letters to Evie. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Friday, July 29, 2011. Happy {belated} birthday to me! One week ago I turned 39. Eeek! I try to see all these things clearly and aim to improve whenever I notice them. Sometimes feels a bit Sissyphean (sp? Though. Right now I am trying to root out passive-aggression and sarcasm, especially when I post in online forums. I don't do the facebook status thing anyway, and I am aiming to say exactly what I mean whenever I can. Labels: Its all about me. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Let's stop the shriveling!
