We were blessed to spend the day out with Nana at Imhoff Farm (another one of our fav hangouts).  This was the second time that we had been there –…

Sometime in the Christmas holidays, or any holiday actually, it is customary to visit Kalk Bay for breakfast and then take a stroll down to the Harbour. I don’t know…

Here are some of the highlights from our holidays that haven’t really featured as their own post, and now that I am back at work (today was the first day…

A while ago I went wine tasting with the peeps at my office and really enjoyed it, it seemed like an awesome thing to do with the family.  So after…

We are on holiday!  Finally!  This is the first year in two whole years that I have not had a 4 month break from work – although, who am I…

We like to have play dates, obviously for the children…  You know they need friends and stuff…  So we crashed at our dear friends the Patons (or Si and Claudz)…

Did you know that there was a place called Giraffe House?  Neither did I!  Did you know that the Tygerberg Zoo doesn’t have a giraffe?  Neither did I – until…

Would it be a bad thing if I admitted that I loved this new baby almost as much as I love my real babies?!  It’s amazing!  In my defense, I…

So in a previous post I mentioned that we wanted to introduce a new awesomeness to our traditions.  And finally we have it.  Welcome Gawpy… I am not sure that…

Recently Kyla has discovered that she can climb off her “big girl bed” and come to us during the night…  So now we regularly hear little footsteps and then see…

Ever since I started thinking about becoming a Mommy (which seems so long ago now), I have been pondering what traditions I would like to keep with them at Christmas…

Since our last family holiday was such an epic fail, we thought we would give it another go.  We were prompted to do so because Seth’s parents were going away…

I know that it’s just over 3 and a half months late to continue the tradition we started with Kyla – where we do a painting once a year on…

This passed weekend our girls attended Sadie-Mia’s awesome birthday party!  What a special party to celebrate a special little girl turning 1! Besides the cake (which was flipping amazing, I…

I don’t know about you, but I don’t take my kids on enough play dates.  Although, let’s be honest – it’s not really all about the kids – it’s about…

Recently my little girls have disappeared and have been replaced with little fairies.  Kyla’s new obsession is to wear her bright yellow tutu (this makes an appearance in yesterdays post…

I think it works…  Don’t you?   (I know the pics are a bit blurry – soz!  But hopefully I’ll be sporting a new camera soon, so no more blurred…

This past Thursday started with rain and gloom but it ended with a very hot afternoon (if you were sitting in the sun).  It was glorious!  Seeing as the girls…

There’s no big reason for this post except that I adore this picture and I can’t think of anything of interest to say with it, so instead of boring you…

Once again our little people are hit with another onslaught of sickness.  I have lost count of the amount that they have had this Winter, but seeing as I can…

The girls absolutely adore their family, so much so that I often think that they would rather be living with them than us!  I love that they have extended family…

Kyla is a dancing machine.  Put on any music anywhere, any time and she will break it down.  Swinging her little hips and making up the most hilarious moves.  My…

Many years ago (about 3 or 4), I was bugging Seth about us becoming parents as I did every now and then (probably once a day) and always after a…
