As I am sure you are aware of by now, Sebastian and I love getting creative and most of our afternoons involve an invitation to play of some description. Fairly often that involves 'messy play'. Recently, painting has become a firm favourite and most requested activity (ever since we got to review this fun box of goodies here). The thing with painting, well there are two things really.. one, they have to dry somewhere and two, they take up so much space. So far so good, we … [Read more...]
Thomas Themed Birthday Cake
Hello Friends! It is crazy to think just over a month ago we were celebrating Sebastian turning two.

Eight … [Read more...]

The benefit of this was it gave me plenty of time to plan, collect, DIY and upcycle items for … [Read more...]
Sebastian’s 2nd Birthday ~ A Thomas Party
Last weekend we celebrated Sebastian's second birthday, crazy how fast time flies. I still can not believe my baby is a big two year old. Sebastian was really sweet as he knew (I use that term loosely) that it was his birthday. But he did know that the balloons and presents and fuss was for him. He was super excited about seeing his little friends and when we sung him 'Happy Birthday' in the morning when he woke up he started to blow out candles. Mummy had of course been … [Read more...]
