Happy 5th Anniversary

Husband and I have celebrated our 5 year anniversary.
I can hardly believe that it has been 5 years, it seems to have gone so fast, and it seems like forever at the same time.

Husband bought me the Willow tree figurine "Promise" for a present. He is so thoughtful.
I bought him red dahlias and some drum sticks (the 5 year anniversary traditional present is wood, and Husband is a drummer, so it seemed to fit).

We also went out to dinner (a very rare occurrence, maybe once a year) and we also went to see The Avengers at the cinemas.
Husband really wanted to see it, and it is kind of a tradition in our relationship to watch non-romantic movies for romantic events.

Wiggles Concert

We saw The Wiggles recently

Rona got a Big Red Car from the shop

We got to see a Big Red Car, Rona wanted to sit in it

And all the characters

Rona had a great time, she was tired out by the end!

Rona's favourite things

Rona loves many things, and here are a few :)

Her cousins

Wearing Mummy's shoes

Wiggles Cake

I made Rona a Wiggles cake for her birthday.

An overview of the whole cake

Rona's party

We had a family gathering for Rona's birthday. Rona was so excited to have a birthday party.

Rona was impressed with the Wiggles cake I made for her

Bad news

Recently, Husband lost his job. His job was cut due to budget cuts, and he is really stressed about it.

At the moment, Husband is at home, trying to find work.
Rona loves having her Daddy home.

I am so very grateful that we have an emergency fund, so that we don't need to stress (too much) about money.

I am praying that Husband finds a job soon

Rona is a busy 2 year old. I can't believe that she is so very precocious. She knows the alphabet, can count to 14 (then skips to 19 and then 20).



Rona's Grandma made her a lovely beanie, it suits her really well.


I took this photo during a very rare day sleep. Rona has given up her day sleeps and I miss them terribly.

You might be a mum if....

Check out this link to We Are That Family, so funny, and see if you can spot me in there :)

Cooking

Rona loves to cook, here she is making biscuits for her birthday party
