The entertainment unit before we removed it from the lounge room. One of my favourite pieces of furniture but it just didn't fit our house so we swapped it for one that did.

Christmas baking - 2 huge Chocolate Cherry slices. They are always a big hit.

Annabelle had a haircut as her hair was getting way too long for her to manage. She wasn't too thrilled by the experience but she held still.

We had blinds installed in the toyroom/craftroom after we noticed my craft supplies starting to fade from the excess sunlight.

Our family tradition to decorate a gingerbread house. It looked great but didn't taste very nice. Next year I'll make the gingerbread myself.

You haven't fallen asleep on my lap in such a long time so when you did I took the time to relax, enjoy it and get extra cuddles!

You've been doing lots of chalkboard drawings lately. This one is a self portrait.

Today we started a new family tradition - buying a fresh Christmas tree. So much nicer than the store bought plastic things!

I finally finished sewing the Christmas serviettes I promised Cathy. I loved them so much I was tempted to keep them!

Katy and the gigantic dessert that we shared when we went out for dinner together. In the end the dessert beat us - it was way too big for 2 people!

Callum and Annabelle love it when Unky Grant comes to visit. They vie for his attention, which he freely gives. Best Uncle Ever!

The first four jars of my homemade relish. Making it wasn't as hard as I had always expected to be. It is delicious!

There are lots of birthdays in December as well as Christmas, so I like to get organised early and wrap presents as I buy them.

All the coins I found on the ground in carparks or shopping centres from 01/12/09 to 30/11/10. A total of $23.10 which I donated to the MS Society.

It's a wonderful day when I get to spend time with my beautiful friend Natalie. Even better when she stays overnight so I get more time the next day!

The bags of bargain fruit and vegetables I got for $2 per bag. Most of it became relish and chutney.

Me and my other mum. One of the most inspirational, caring, encouraging women I have the pleasure of knowing.

Afternoon tea to welcome the new kindy parents of 2011 to their information meeting. I still remember the P&C welcoming me not so long ago.
Wednesday, November 17, 2010
As we sat and enjoyed afternoon tea together Callum showed me how many different crazy faces he could pull. He's quite a character!
