4 Years Babyyy

last night jevan and i celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary.

this year was very different to the last.

we normally have a "budget" but never stick to it.

UNTIL this year, because we are now living in our own house and pay our own bills we didn't have a choice this year.

i have to say it was the best anniversary yet.

we had only $30 to spend on presents for each other which made us see how much we actually knew each other.

our plans however did get changed a little because of a little hiccup.

we had a beautiful picnic at home (a bit different from the botanical garden view we had planned).

our menu was simple.

quiche, prawns, brie, cabanossi, crackers, dip and fruit (knowing that the 4 year tradition is fruit & flowers I tried somehow to incorporate that in the picnic)

our babysitter then came (Thanks Nan!) 

we put the munchkins to bed and then headed out to Dough Box at Newtown (BEST CREPE PLACE EVRRRRRRRR)

after that deliciousness we drove to Milson's Point and sat on the wharf and enjoyed the view and the company.

best company.

best food.

best anniversary.

EVER.

My Super Power

makai is almost three.

he is at the age where a kiss makes everything better.

if a finger gets jammed, he trips over or bangs his head on the door he runs to mum to "kiss it all better please," and then he continues to play.

it makes me feel somewhat like i'm a super hero and that's my super power  : ).

i think all mothers inherit this.

i enjoy these times because the day will come when I will have to send him off into the world and there will be moments that a "kiss it all better please" won't do.

so for now, i'll enjoy my super power.
