I rode around the house on Harrys bike.

To my wonderful Husband

Happy Anniversary.

I know this blog is usually dedicated to H & H however, Their Dad deserves special mention.

Yesterday marked 4 amazing years of marriage for us. We rock. We madly love each other and life if great. But if that's not enough I can always count on Andrew to up the anti! Each year we alternate organizing our anniversary - I don't think it is fair that the "husband" is expected to organize it - it is about BOTH of us. So this year was my turn. I had arranged babysitters ( a great mother in law who did an overnighter) and booked a hotel in the city and found a gorgeous french restaurant. I sent a single red balloon to his office with a card to suggest he should make arrangement for work in the morning as we wouldn't be home til late "am". I thought I had done a pretty good job (which I had!). We exchanged beautiful cards in the morning (we don't do gifts), and off I set to take Holly to kindy. I then found another mushy card in the mail box, and one in my purse! When we got to kindy, there was a massive bouquet of flowers waiting for me (with another gorgeous card)!!! I guess that's what you get not having an office and being a stay at home mum! I was thrilled to say the least. Then I got home and found another bunch of my favourite white lilys. What an amazing husband. I know I am so so lucky to have married not only such a thoughtful man but my best friend .... ok, too gushy I know, but its true!

So then we ventured into the city and while Andrew was parking the car, I checked us into the hotel, when I got to the room there was a bag of my favourite Koko Black chocolates and yet another card!!! So spoilt, he had actually called a few hotels to find where we were staying then drove to the city and dropped them off??!!!! can you believe! So I was a bit mystified and blown away by this stage. We walked into the restaurant and there, on the table was another big box of flowers. He had called a dozen restaurants in the city to find our reservation and dropped them off. I feel so spoilt and lucky to know that someone loves me this much.

But just to top it off was a little book with the flowers, a book he had put together, just for me and all about - why he loved me so much!!! Pictures and all.

I am lucky, spoilt and loved.

And It feels great!

Happy Anniversary Honey - I love you more than ever xx

As much as "3" is a LOT more trying than the suppossed "terrible 2's" (they were a breeze by the way) This little monkey is such a gorgeous, smart and creative little cookie. We love you missy moo xx

off to kindy

It's all about HOLLY!

I LOVE to dress up - feathers, heals, glitz and glamour - spells HOLLY!

PS, thanks for the dress L-Mans!

We had a big sleepover with Raquel and Stelly the other night.

And by big I mean, craft and painting and toys galore.

As Raquel said "its almost pumpkin time!" (when we went to bed!)

It's all about HARRY!

What a SPUNK!
I cannot get enough of this boy.
He has his Daddys smile and charm ..
Watch out girls!

12 month injections today ... barely even a squeek out of this little cherub!

You should see me ride this lion!

Our first born, furry, four legged friend. Although she has rapidly moved down the ranks over the years, we still love her! Happy 9th Birthday for 2 weeks ago!!

Daddy has been telling me about "Holly" since I was born. He can never find it in the florist, and then yesterday, he literally ran into it at a clients house ... hope they didn't mind him stealing a piece for me!

Daddy & Harry

An afternoon at the playcentre was just too much for two party goers!

Melbourne winter = lots of indoor fun!

Today we had a Mamma and Holly day. Our plan kind of backfired though when the pantomime we went to see, scared the bejesus out of my darling girl. We left before half time and instead, found a cafe and had cake and milkshakes instead! We then caught up with our boys at a playcentre .... H & H both exhausted by bedtime :)
We were hiding from Mamma the other day and it took her ages to find us in the broom cupboard!

I made a very colourful catipillar out of an egg carton.

A very Freeman-Cooper week!

Aunty Gabe and Uncle Karl have been very busy moving house, so we were lucky enough to score their precious cargo for a couple of days!!!
