There is Sunshine in my soul today...

This Little Baby girl is ALWAYS smiling!!! She's so happy, maybe because she knows shes very very loved! She awakes like this she goes through teething like this and she plays with her sister like this! Seeing her so happy and very smiley makes me so happy and proud of Shannon and I. It makes me think we must be doing something SO RIGHT! We love our girls so so much, They are very spoilt, meaning not in material things, but spoilt with Love!! Don't mind the vomit on her jumper, I had just fed her breakfast, and decided to get it everywhere! :) Enjoy xx

 I Think you can Kinda see her top teeth in this photo, not sure??

Hehe Her smile can make ANYONE smile! Your so Precious my Darling Koda Girl! xxxx

Holding on...

At 7.5 months Koda girl is now pulling her self up onto anything Vertical, she's had a few donks and bumps, but is getting better at holding on! She's doing so well! She can crawl, sit and pull her self up. She now has 4 teeth as well!! And seems to be handling the teething stage quite well so far, just a few very early mornings. But that's about it!! :) You go my baby!

Static Hair

The title pretty much says it all!! Shannon and I were cracking up at her this morning on the tramp, she must have been thinking "what the hek are they laughing at??" lol Don't they look so MUCH like sisters!!!! xxxx

Good little girl...

I just love experimenting with my editing, I love photography but for some odd reason i don't want to become one. I'm more into make up and beauty! I would love to become a make up artist and make woman feel and look beautiful! :) (not that there not already!!) Here's a few Pictures I took of Nizhoni and surprisingly she sat like a good little girl and listened! 

"Muuumm Doilet!!!"

Where to start......
Day 1 was horrible! Day 2 was worse etc etc...Well its been 3 weeks since toilet training her and she still has 1 accident every 2 days..? I think I might have started a little too early, she still doesn't yet know how to tell me she needs to go?? I''ve wanted to give up plenty of times but thought "NO, I can NEVER give up!" She is getting better at knowing not to do yukkys in her undies and to do yukkys in the toilet..? Sooo i think she will get it one day soon! :) There was 3 days in a row were she came up too me running yelling "muuum doilit" (toilet) so I would take her then she would go on to do either number 1s or number 2s, i was over the moon and thought for sure were so done here!!!! :) Then we started going places like my sisters house and that's where the accidents would happen, then we would come home and do MORE accidents (she must of thought it was OK since she was having accidents at Aunties house) Since Shannon has city work in Brisbane until the next big project starts up in WA, so I have no car for a week or so! So I'm going to go hard really hard at this! She should be telling me every time she needs to go by the end of the month? HOPEFULLY!! :) I Don't like this toilet training thing! Its the worse thing about being a mother! But its sooo good in the long run! And Shannon and I are so very proud of out little girl growing up and learning to understand new things, so for her sake I'm going to stick at it and hopefully she "gets" it "more" very soon...or is it for my sake?..OK we will say for both our sakes!! :D Well wish her luck :) xx

And if i was to give any advice it would be...

*Stay home and don't go ANYWHERE for a week, 2 weeks max.

*Ask them every 15 mins if the need to go, if they say no which is most likely going to happen just stick them on the toilet anyways.

*Don't use pull ups or nappies at nap times or night time (how would you like the confusion?) Its best to go all out COLD TURKEY! Its better for them as well as YOU! They "get it" and "understand" more faster!
*DON'T get mad, they don't have accidents to purpose to MAKE you mad, Just freeze your face and show no frustration at all, and just say "Aww Yuck!, Lets go change your Ikky Undies" And maybe sit them on the toilet after each accident soo they get the idea?
* Decrees the fluid intake at nights!!
Last onee..
*Take them toilet before and after sleeps! Nizhoni goes almost eveytime with success! :)
Ohh and if you think of when to toilet train them...Between Ages 2 years & 2 months - 2 Years and 6 months seems to be a magic age! :)

Our Own Home

 Finally were in our own 4 bedroom 2 bathroom home, unfortunately we don't own the house but we are happily renting :) We live in a beautiful estate called Pimpama, its a nice 5 min joy ride from when you take the Pimpama exit. We live just around the corner from the golf course which Shannon is pretty excited about! :) There still a few house need we need to get such as Table and chairs, computer desk, coffee table, lamps, carpets etc etc. We do have everything else that we need to live such as fridge, kettle, toaster,couch, TV, washing Machine,dryer and beds! hehe I took a few pictures of how bad it looked then to how good and CLEAN it looked! I'm a clean freak and couldn't get good sleep knowing my home wasn't fully how i wanted it! but we managed to get it done, so was satisfied in the end. I also have pictures of all our new house items that sat in storage waiting to be opened and USED! And I've used them HEAPS and i LOVE using them! Gets me excited to just put on the washing, or to vacuum,or to make toast and to make a hot drink! :) Ahhh Love being as a family in our own home! I seriously COULDN'T be Happierrrr!!!! :)

 Daddy feeding Koda girl on my rocking chair, i had bought it to breastfeed and to bottle feed and to just simply have cuddles with my girls while they fall asleep to me rocking them. xx

 Nizhoni was so used to watching Daddy putting together everything, that she thought she would try! :)

Putting together Her tramp she got for Chirssy that sat in storage, until we found a house to move, she's on this thing almost everyday!!!
                                       

Daddy double bounced her a little too high, she was fine, as always after a fall she gets back up and tries again! :)

Our AWESOME fridge, I've ALWAYS wanted a fridge with the freezer on the bottom, because we go in the fridge more it should be right there in reach and not having to bend down to get milk out all the time!!

Our awesome toaster and Jug, I love the modern look as you can tell most things are Stainless steal! :)

Quite a big Microwave

Our 9.5 kg Washing machine, need a big one for Shannon's work clothes and alll the baby clothes! :)

Our new TV cabinet, Very baby proof too!!

Our Dyson DC 25 Vacuum! I'm really in love with this one!!!! Its Amazing!!!! xxx 

Hope you enjoyed and was able to feel my excitement through my typing! hehe
