We just had a really happy weekend! There was lots of sunshine here in Daylesford and so we were outside in the garden, hanging out and having fun.
The weather has been so lovely lately, doesn't it make a difference to how you feel?
Rosie has always been an outside girl, a cubby house girl, an apple tree tent kind of girl!
She's also been a cough and cold girl this week, all the kids have had a nasty bug that has brought on asthma and a million hankies. Not fun! I'm filling them with fruit though and hoping it passes quickly.
Lately I've been really enjoying using the app, instagram,. Are you into it too? I love the different filters and it's so convenient when I don't have my camera. My user name is dandelion66, come and say hi and then I'll visit you and your photo's too!
Hey!! Guess what??? Our two young ducks are about to be young mums! Platypus (the chocolate coloured one who we thought was a boy) and Josie and both sitting on about twenty eggs! Wow!
They are so divine. Look at those faces, how could you not have a duck in your life?
They seem to have a share/care arrangement and are taking turns sitting on the eggs. And then sitting together as well. The funny thing is there is at least one chook egg in the nest too! I can't wait to see if some chickies hatch as well.
I'm going to finish off today with an introduction to a very handsome fellow who I finally got to meet on Friday night. This is George, Charlotte's teddy who was made by the very talented Jess, of Teddy Bear's Wednesday. If you don't know Jess then you should really pop over to her blog and say hi.
She makes the most adorable and ace toys AND she is adorable and ace herself. The ginchiest really.
Anyway lovely people, I better get on with the day.
Sorry if I haven't been round to your place lately, I've just been swamped with so much going on.
But I hope to see you soon,
much love xo
A very HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Miss Pepper who turns 4 today. Woo hoo!!! xoxoxo

You two look like sisters in those brilliant photos!! I love the sheet apple tree tent, if we had a tree I know my two would adore one!

Gorgeous tent..I wouldn't mind being a 'camp under the apple tree' girl myself in that one!

Love the photo booth too, you two look like sisters in that bottom one :-)
Oh I love that tent very much. And yes great weather makes all the difference.
Happy Birthday to Charlotte! How lovely will all those little ducklings be when they hatch. I think Josie is very pretty. Hope you have some more sunny weather to make you happy. We have had lots of rain this weekend!

Sweet! I looove ducks too!
It was great to hear from you - thank you for your lovely comment - and look at that lovely sunshine! If I had an app I would join you, but I am afraid that I am a bit steamdriven still . . .

Can't decide which is cuter: the after-school tent or the two ducks. So I won't choose. Too cute all round!
Ooh I love the sheet tent Idea, I must do that more often for my girls, It is so HOT in QLD already and our only shady tree is quite bare looking! Love your Duckies... :)
