“Weekends are a bit like rainbows; they look good from a distance but disappear when you get up close to them.”

John Shirley

What a great weekend we had :-)

On Saturday we went to Papachino’s with Sam and Cayleb. We hadn’t seen Sam this year so it was great to chat and catch up. Sam has been raving about Papachino’s for a while and now know why. WHat a lovely place to take the kids too, they have a huge play area and they have bikes, scooters,ride ons,colouring in corners,pizza making for kids and really great child minders.One thing I think I loved the most about this place is that all you pay for is the food you eat and of course tip the child minders. You can spend hours there and know your kids are having fun. Brilliant combination right?

Kamva fell in love with the play area and Cayleb was her ‘guardian angel’ and held her hand every chance he got and acted like the big brother. Kamva on the other hand did not want her hand held and would come crying and say ‘mama Tayleb’ which was very cute :-)

After the lunch we went to Sam’s place to relax a bit before going home and Cayleb was sitting on the couch with a folder and Kamva came and tried to take the folder and Cayleb in a very serious tone told Kamva ‘I am busy working here’ that little boy is too funny.

Sunday morning we went to Victory Park for our photoshoot with Cilla which we won on Tanya’s blog. When they say Cilla is really patient with children its true, Kamva was not in the smiley,laughing mood but Cilla had patience and Kamva eventually gave in and started looking for Pooh and Kitty in the camera lens. I can’t wait to see the pictures :-) Victory Park is also a gem of a place, it has a play area and lots of grass to play in. Worth visiting again

Shoot outfit

Sunday afternoon it was really hot and Kamva was nappyless for most part of the afternoon and she was dry for up to an hour so maybe its time we really started with the potty train. She now makes a pooh at about 7 in the mornnig and also at about 5 when she comes home from school.(Sorry tmi mommy stuff) I think this month I need to get some huggies pull ups.

We had a good weekend :-)

We had a good night’s sleep, Miss K was up once and wanted a bottle but settled about 5 minutes later when she realised she was not getting it. This morning I woke up refreshed and had a lovely start to the morning, its amazing what a good night’s sleep can do.

THEN got the email from Rattle and Mum about who the winner for the Cilla Bloom photoshoot was and since I had entered yesterday I wanted to see who won and secretly hoping it was me :-) Lo and behold it was me. My day just keeps getting better and better. Excited about doing this shoot and can’t wait to see the photos.

P.S . Tanya has more give aways lined up so if you have not done so go subscibe to her blog and also like her facebook page. You can also like Cilla’s page on facebook and see her awesome work on her website.

Lots of love
