someone is reading!

Thanks so much to Nicole from Healthy Earth Healthy Me for sending over my first blog award.

So for seven things about me:

1. I love to travel and have - a lot.  I lost count of the counties I visited after about number 40 and have to visit South America and Antarctica and then I will have set foot on every continent (above is my favourite travel pic taken in an Indian desert);
2. I once appeared in a Bollywood movie (during Indian travels above);
3. DK and I have been together since I was 17 years old - so our next major anniversary will be 20 years! Shhhh that makes me feel old.
4. DK and I got matching tattoos after knowing each other for three weeks - yeah we're classy...
5. I was born in a country that no longer exists - Rhodesia which is now Zimbabwe and we immigrated to Australia when I was seven.
6. I'm a terrible procrastinator - seriously I can waste months before getting started on something.
7. I'm a reformed spend-thrift. 

Seven new blogs:

1. http://champagne-and-bubbles.blogspot.com/ - adventures of being an expat living abroad
2. http://colourlikewater.blogspot.com/ - there should always be more poetry;
3. http://jowilliamsphotography.blogspot.com/ - lovely pics;
4. http://esmeandthelaneway.blogspot.com/ - super stylish vintage;
5. http://ballynoecottage.blogspot.com/ - a green guru;
6. http://heathernetteking.blogspot.com/ - wonderful interior stylist;
7. http://renoblogo.blogspot.com/ - a new "reno" in progress.

Gee that took me days... what am I going to do when I got back to work soon and you know .. have deadlines to get things done!

He's off

You're crawling.  Well more often reversing than crawling but you're getting around. And banging your head.  A lot.  Still smiling though. And I thought I was busy before...

intruder alert #2

Remember that friend you made in the bedroom mirror last week HK?  Well you made a new one today - on the floor.  Half an hour playing with your own shadow - who needs toys?

yay it's friday

Given I am on maternity leave I don't really know why I get excited about Fridays.  But I still do especially when the sun is shining like today - years of habit I suppose.  Also getting very excited about our beach holiday coming up in a few weeks.  We are going to Wye River the most beautiful place on earth. Picked up a couple of cute beach suits for HK today - with this little cutie on the butt of one :-).  Have a great weekend.

peggies on the way

Exhibit A: zonked out in pram after sleepless night
