Going forward I will
be combining my weekly wind up and my pictures from my FMSPHOTOADAY challenge.
So to start off
with...
We moved into our
new house on Tuesday. Its fab – absolutely love it, its so flat, and there are
no stairs which is even better. The whole process went smoother than I thought.
We were lucky enough he have gotten to know the previous owners of our house
before we moved in, and as they were moving to another town, they gave us the
remote for the garage way before we were due to move in. We started taking bits
and pieces there over the weeks leading up to settlement. So on settlement day,
we were able to start moving in in the morning. This was a total life saver as Tuesdays
weather was disgusting, it rained nonstop for most of the day! Fast forward to
yesterday – we are settled, unpacked, and in the process of doing some minor
renovating/upgrading.
I also got this cute
mother’s day gift from Keaton. He only goes to day-care 3 times a week, so was
not there the Friday before and the Monday after mother’s day. I love it, can’t
wait to get it framed up and put in the bedroom.
Keaton is finally 100% off the
dummy, it was the easiest thing ever. I had been stressing about it for ages.
We started off by telling him that he was a big boy, and that dummies are for
babies, luckily we have a niece who is a couple of months old, so we told him
that she was a baby and needed his dummy. He was happy with that and said that
big boys don’t need dummies. Next he helped me cut the top off his dummy and
throw the top away. I let him keep the bottom part to hold onto. When it was
bed time, he got into bed, asked for the dummy – to which I said “ you are big
boy and big boys don’t have dummies”, he replied “ babies have dummies”. I gave
him the cut off one, and he was fine with it. I had do repeat that every night
for about 3 nights, but now he doesn't even ask for it. No night time wake ups,
no cries for it, nothing. He is just awesome, and he amazes me more and more
everyday!
My Facebook page hit
80 likes, I know for a lot of people who are bloggers and who have Facebook
pages, that is nothing, but for me, it’s a huge thing. I didn’t want to create
a Facebook page, because I was scared I would be judged etc, but I am no over
that, I mean people obviously look at my content, so if you have liked my page –
Thanks.
I got some new
cushions for the lounge, I thought the lounge needed a pop of colour, as the old
lounge’s colour scheme was blue and beige. We are stuck (for now) with the lounge
suite (which is blue), so I bought some turquoise cushions and decor to add that little pop. It’s
still missing something, so am going to introduce a bit of yellow as well. Not
a bright yellow, more of a lemon yellow.

A few pieces I picked up to go with the cushion |
After writing all
that down, it does not seem to read as hectic as it was, but it really was!
In amongst all the
manic, I managed to capture my 7 pictures for the #FMSPHOTOADAY challenge:
