In the same breath our weekends are also slowly returning to some sense of normality - by that I mean weekends that does not feature a very out of sync Mr L. It really does put a strain on all. He is now excited to go to school in the mornings. His teacher this morning showed me a lovely bit of construction work he did that totally impressed her.His social skills seem to improve all the time. I am sure he adapted, but I am also totally sure that the horse riding has to be a factor to this happier note. I have also at last found and Omega supplement he actually eats (for the last 2 weeks) - he refused any of the others A and C eats - even those cute Brain food fishes. Creche Guard has one that is like a chewy sweet and so far so good.
The past weekend had the photography muse smiling upon me - we attended a birthday party on Saturday and honestly I have so many great photos of each of my kids that I simply can not choose. It was a bat themed party with a sweetie buffet ( I saw adults crawling to the buffet when white eater eggs were spotted in the kid's plates......). So I am leaving you with some party happiness. And a Project life post on my other blog.
I'm glad that weekends are starting to get better for you all. Understandable that Mr L has a lot to do with it and glad that things are now better for him as well.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos...and I love that Bat party idea. Glad things are going better with Mr L
ReplyDeleteAn unexpected "off" day...how wonderful!
ReplyDeleteAnd I love two pics of A the most...her petting the dog, and then her in goggles. Isn't it great to come away with loads of great pictures??? :) :)
I love the dog petting photo very very much.
DeleteHi Cat ... wow, your photos are gorgeous and I can't choose just one. Your boys faces are maturing so much. They're so cute. But the princess petting the dog is a gorgeous photo. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteOh wow Cat it looks like so much fun. You outdid yourself. HEHEHE, OK DON'T LAUGH AT ME BUT when I got to 'SLANGE GEVAAR' I read it as 'S-l-a-n-j' as in English. And then I was like 'Wag a bietjie, daar is slange in die bottel'....Blonde moment.
ReplyDeleteLol! Blomde moment! Just for the record, I did not organize the party. This mom always hosts the most fabulous parties - she uses an organizer
DeleteYAY for free day to be a SAHM how nice.
ReplyDeleteReally, I am not even their mum and I am having a hard time choose a favourite. I love all three pictures of the kids in the slide with the foam on them and of course A petting the horse (oops dog I meant). My friend calls all big dogs horses (LOL)
I love it! The picture of Anneke with the dog is my fav. What type of dog is that? It looks like a ridgeback and I do have a very softspot for them!! I'd also really love to know where they managed to find those snakes! I've been keeping my eyes open for gross, but yummy treats for Jake's fear factor party in May. Still got some time, but struggling to find things!

He is a ridgeback and the very sweetest dog. Mr Sweets also make snakes but they are not this gross. Btw the snakes were the very first sweets to be all eaten
DeleteWhat a great party! I would love to have an off-day as well!
ReplyDeleteI can see why you can't choose a photo! It is all stunning!
Love the bat-themed party!
Looks like a fantastic party and I have to ask if you have a Rhodesian Ridgeback dog?

it's our friend's ridgeback - lots of them in South Africa
DeleteI love the one of your daughter and the dog. So sweet. And the one of her on the water slide. Her smile says it all. But they are actually all gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI like the bottom right picture of each child. :)
ReplyDeleteLoads of happy faces in these pics, and that party decor is really something different.
ReplyDeleteGrrr...no power is a pain the behind. Mostly because it means no coffee and no battery charging, but still.
