Show & Tell

I got to see my little nieces and nephew on Friday! It was bitter-sweet, especially when they had to go, but I am so grateful that I got to spend some time with them. It was Charlotte's 1st birthday and we went to Hungry Jack's to celebrate.

Charlotte was unhappy the whole time, you could see how panicked she was, she wouldn't let anyone hold her except Alicia, and whenever she was in her highchair she would scream if she couldn't see Alicia. It was actually quite distressing. Lulu and Jordan on the other hand have flourished. They have grown up so quickly, Lulu is pretty much fully toilet trained and is going to kindy, Jordan is such a confident little kid! I made sure I got lots of cuddles and special time with each child.

And now for some photos of the day.

  7. Yeah, Charlotte's pics reveal a red nose and puffy eyes - that comes out only with a lot of crying!

    Love the last picture of you and Jordie. It has come out well.

    The cake looks yum. What flavour was it?
