The day the bath disappeared

 September 09 00340

So it was just a normal day, and I was having a bath in Kami & Opa’s laundry tub… September 09 00341

When I saw this weird black thing at the bottom of the tub. I had to have it. September 09 00342

After a bit of fumbling in the bubble water.. it was mine! I stood up to show my Papa, and before I knew what was happening, all my water disappeared!! September 09 00343I tried really hard to put the black thing back…

But no matter what I did, the water all kept disappearing down the hole in the bath tub.

It was a very sad day.

Mayana [hearts] Nate

These pics are probably over a month old now, but I just realised I haven’t shared them and they’re too cute not to show off!

Nate is the grandson of my mum’s best friend.. our two families have grown up together – in fact my mum’s mum and her best friend’s mum are also best friends, and myself and mum’s best friend’s daughter and I were childhood best friends… so Mayana and Nate make four generations of besties in our families!

Mayana was completely smitten by Nate, and wouldn’t stop giving him cuddles or kisses. Nate most certainly didn’t seem to mind too much!

New Shoes!

We found a baby boutique with Mayana-sized shoes today… 50% off! So she got two pairs of shoes for around $9.00 each. One from her Kami and one from her Papa. They’re so cute!

Thanks Oom J!

Oom J (my brother - Oom=dutch word for Uncle, J is Jordan’s nickname, Oom J is what Mayana calls him) bought Mayana a new highchair which will live at Opa & Kami’s house. Isn’t he the best uncle ever!

Slingin’ It

I made Mayana a new sling – a ‘wrap sling’. $16 for 4m of 2-way stretch material, cut in half lengthways = two, no-sew slings! Gotta love that :) It’s so comfortable and versatile, you can wear it in so many ways and Mayana seems to quite like it too.
