29/365:

I took many many pictures on at the Bootcamp party but I just love this one! Little man L had so much fun and Little man C is busy concentrating so hard. I love taking pictures of the twins where I focus more on the one, but the other is in the background. I also like it than Little man C's face is smeared with mud and cake crumbs - what more can a boy ask for?

  

30/365:

The water slide provided many photo opportunities and I have a great one of my own little princess, but I think this one is the winner of the day. And action shot of little J as he starts his slide. I love the foam on the face and the spuds splashing.

31/365:

Although we had a fun day at the Zita park party, I think this one is my best for the day as it really is so typical of The Lil Miss at present. She is finding so much joy in drawing. It's like seeing yourself at that age - my mom says I was much the same.

32/365:

The day was busy. and by the time I got my camera out it was bath time and bed time. So I snapped a few - nothing I really liked. Then after settling the boys down I looked into A's room - and there she was, sleeping so I snapped without flash and just the bedside lamp on.

33/365:

(Some of the) ladies of the Bookclub. This is my first self timer and tripod shot with the new camera. Gosh, I just love my once a month Tuesday date with them. We are 11 in total in the club, but the usual get together is often about 7 to 9 girls as all of us work, most are married and some have small children.

34/365: 
It was a crazy day at work, Hunter had to go home early to be with the kids as I was stuck in a meeting in Joburg and I only got home in time for dinner and bath time. So, a picture from my working day. I really find it hard to photograph some of our buildings as cars. people etc are everywhere and some buildings are just difficult due to their configuration, orientation etc. But I like this one of a shopping center we completed a few years ago.

It's Friday and time to get the little its and bits out of the system: 

1. We have had 3 successful potty training days - may I hear a million yeahs! Little man C is doing so well. Little man L is not so sure about doing his no 2, but the rest is on track. They are really surprising their mommy - I did not think that I would be potty training them so early.

2. I am very stressed at work at present - hence I sometimes escape into this world of blogging.  

3. We have a family situation in my mother's side of the family that could potentially put her and me at opposite sides of an issue. Let's hope it does not get to this.But I am going to try and keep my opinion to myself.
4. I think I have a strep throat and will try to get to the doctor today. Have been feeling crappy for the last two days - hence, I only went to gym once this week (on Monday) and never made it yesterday.
5. A kid in the Lil' Miss' school had lice - oh my word, we get this little letter from school at least once every year. I am putting my trust in my Teatree oil spray that has worked every time to prevent transmission. She hates it and cried this morning when I put it on. 
6. While Hunter is going on a little fishing trip tomorrow, I am going to spend some time with my dear cousin Petru from Komatipoort. I am so looking forward to this!
6. With the 3 parties we had last weekend I am behind on posting the pictures. Will get to it though!
7. And last but certainly not least, what do you think of my blog's new look? I have also updated my blog lists - apologies if you should be there and I left you out - leave me a comment please.
