The Daddy's Birthday

It was the Daddy's Birthday yesterday!

Happy birthday Adam!

It's was a good day. We ventured out in the rain for a nice lunch at the Noosa marina for fish and chips.

 

Mind you it was rather quick as Madison was in fine form and feeling much better after the week of croup! A few in appropriate things but you know, we just go with the flow. You probably don't want details but a little bit icky and a lot funny! Very nice calamari too!

Trying to fit us all in to the photo!

 

The kid is very cheeky, got to watch her as she will give you a little nip every now and then.

 

Being silly with Dad!

Love my sista!



Madison is always the poser, ha!

Madison asleep on the way home and Jaimee holding her hand looking after the little one, so sweet!

 

We took a chance and went to the markets earlier in the morning. Madison is really into the shopping thing now and she wants to go all the time! There were so many dogs, the kid was in heaven. I was so tempted to take photo's of all the dogs and make a little book for her, maybe I'll get brave and ask the owners next time :)

Look what Madison found at the markets, perfect!



Very cool books for madison to draw in.

Love this and had to take a photo, it was sold much to Ad's delight!

India tomorrow, wild turkeys now:)

Snuggles with dad!

 

 Ad got his new j-dub fins for his punt, well he cheated and got them a week ago but he is happy.

One more year till the big 40, damn you are good lookin babe for your age!

Love you Babe, Happy Birthday x

I Escaped ...



 

This morning I escaped !!!

 

I was thinking how lovely it would be to go and explore the markets at Yandina, I hadn't been for such a long time. Usually if it's a family affair it always turns out to be really rushed and one of us has to have a hold of Madison at all times. Then there is the thing about the dogs. People always take their dogs there and Madison just want's to love them all up and then bring them home.

 

So it was stuck in my head then, the markets that is. I had a debate with myself, I do have washing and I should be cleaning up some things to put on ebay or gumtree. Then I was thinking Ad is happy there is no surf (well not really happy), Jaimee wont know she is asleep and Madison was all giggly on the computer, so there really wasn't any thing to put a stop to me going.

 

I was up early, showered, cup of tea'd and had Madison sorted. No waves for Ad and there was no stirring from Jaimee. I whispered to Ad, I'm off to the markets and high tailed it out of there before there could be any buts or what abouts. It was only 7.00 o'clock :)  I did have a big smile on my face as I drove out of the drive way, Freedom!!!

So sweet, I feel a project coming on :)

 

I had such a wonderful morning out in the fresh air and sunshine. I love going to markets and people watching, seeing all the amazing fresh produce, the plant stalls, the bric a brac and finding treasures!!!

 

It was so nice to wander about at my own pace feeling relaxed and not having that belly tightening feeling of being on Madison watch. 

 

Sometimes a little bit of me time can rejuvenate the mind, body and soul!

 

I am still smiling too.
