225: City 2 Surf, my 3rd one, Will's 6th!
226: Jai loves playing soccer in the backyard, he can even kick the ball himself if you run him up to it!
227: Exploring the different parks in our neighbourhood. This one has an awesome slide!
228: Swimming!! Jai squealed the pool hall down with his cries of glee! He {hearts} swimming! Which is great, cos this is gonna be a hot summer!

229: Work.
230: Jai is able to lift the flaps on one of his favourite books all by himself now!!
231: Loving my new J.Crew bubble necklace! (allegedly authentic, but I did get it on ebay from Hong Kong so I'm highly sceptical!)
232: My gorgeous boy!

233: Some Op Shopping treasures from our Op Shopping Safari to the Northern Beaches. Not as big a haul as I thought I would find actually! Turns out our local suburbs are the best for Pyrex!
234: Daddy's shoes are still a little toooo big! Jai brought them over to me saying "Shoes!" and then proceeded to put them on his feet! So cute!
235: In new PJ's from Granny & Papa from Alaska!

Project 365: Collages 53, 54, 55 & 56!

More catch up for Project 365! I am sooooo far behind {smacking back of hand}. I know I always say that, so how about we just expect that I'll be behind, and don't assume that these pics are from any time recently! Cos they're so not! {turning back many pages of the calendar!} Here we are back at the end of July and into August....

209: Lunch Date to Cafe 3one7 at Parramatta. Willy is fishing for a Lam. Hahahahaah! {giggles}. Spaghetti is a good bait for catching children!
210: Playtime in the sun in the backyard. Yay for sunshine!
211: Jaimeson having a horsey ride from some of the guys at work who were having an exercise session in a local park. Never underestimate a toddler's ability to make grown guys go all mushy and play childish games! No matter how macho they are!
212: Jai's new (terrible) haircut! Luckily it only took a week to grow out! It was so nerdy!

213: Jaimeson's first Art Work! A drop & squash painting he did at Playgroup. What a pretty butterfly!
214: At work. Here is my multi-function phone. Thankfully, I changed numbers when I came back to work, so I don't get as many phone calls as I used to cos people can't find me! LOL!
215: I'm sick!
216: Willy taking Jai for a ride around the backyard in the Washing Trolley. It got a bit bent after this {smirk}. Clearly Jai is heavier than Will realised, or Will is a worse driver than he thought? Hahahahah!

217: Family photo! Having some play time together :)
218: Grocery Shopping! Jaimeson loves the giant cardboard cutout of Dawn French at Coles. Why? I have no idea! She does have a big smile!
219: Jai loving a birds-eye view of the world! No-where is cooler than riding on Daddy's shoulders.
220: Yay! Costco! With Granny & Papa :)

221: I dropped my car off for a service before work, and joined the long ant-trail of Commuters from the deep-underground train station, up to the surface. There are 2 of these extra long escalators to take you up from underground, it's very futuristic!
222: Family Farewell Cuddles before work!
223: MMMM...... breakfast out at a cafe! I {heart} Cafe breakfasts! Almost more than dinners I reckon! Here I'm having corn fritters with homemade tomato salsa and crispy bacon {sniffing the air for the delicious smell of frying bacon... sadly it's only a memory and not a reality!} We were at Dig.i.kaf at Glebe.
224: Met up with Alicia & Xander at Top Ryde Shopping Centre for a fun shopping & coffee day!

Yay, we've made it into August! Hooray!

Day 197: We stayed the night at Granny & Papas. We love hanging out with them!

203: Met up with Granny & Papa at Sergios for lunch. Papa bought Jai a new Matchbox car- a Dune Buggy!
204: Peek-A-Boo! Jai loves pooking through the trailer of his Truck as it sits up on his highchair tray. If he's not co-operating with eating his dinner, playing this game is a good way to get him to be distracted enough to eat!

205: Op Shopping and hanging out at Fliss's! Sienna, Fliss and Jaimeson are all holding up some Op Shop treasures!
206: Ye-Ye came for a visit
207: My happy boy waking up! Look- he has his ever-present Cement Mixer!

Project 365; Collages 47, 48, 49

Yes, I am aware it has been AGES since I did a Project 365 collage post! Forgive me!
Here are 3 more of my Project 365, picture a day collages {smiles}

Day 185: Out to lunch at a Vietnamese restaurant with some work friends then Coffee and Churros afterwards at Coco Cubano Cuban- Chocolate cafe at Parramatta. YUM!!
186: Work (no smiling here!) Slowly highlighting and crossing things off a to-do list. I'm a paper pusher these days, rather than a people pusher which I was before Jai was born. I miss my people! Paper isn't as interactive {wink!}
187: Having some morning play with Jaimeson before I go to work. I get him his breakfast, then eat mine and pack lunch while he plays. Then when it's time for his morning sleep that's time for me to go to work and I wake Will up and hand Jai over.
188: Look! My big boy loves to stand and watch TV. Honestly, he could stand for hours (always holding something though) if the TV was on!

189: Jai's friend Piet from Playgroup's Monster Party! What a cute hat!
190: My Vintage Sheet Quilt top is FINISHED!!! YAY!!
191: Having some outside play in the sunshine. Oh how I long for Summer!
192: {frowny}. My first Vintage plate disaster at the hands of Will's Mum. I got home to her saying "I messy your plate". Boo!!

193: Farewelling my boys as I leave for work (see how quick my 5-day weekend flies by!)
194: Stopped at Vinnies on my way to work and had PYREX SUCCESS {high five!} A casserole dish, and 2 nesting mixing bowls in Butterfly gold, and a Spring Blossom casserole dish with lid! Score! {chest bump!}
195: Little Boy loves to stand on tippy toes at the TV unit to watch TV! I love his tippy toes!
196: A visit to Granny and Papa's! This was back in July, I know it cos he has since grown out of that gorgeous shirt, and Granny isn't laid up in bed with her back and knee pain!

Phew, well, that's a little catch up! I hope to post more of my every-day pics soon! Is it boring or do you like to see what I get up to every day?
:) C

Project 365; Collages 44, 45 & 46

More updates for Project 365! I am sooooo far behind with my posting now, boy am I!

Day 173: Eating lunch at work. I remembered my own mug for once! You know those small white styrofoam cups, they hold like 2 sips of tea. I need a mega drink at lunch time!
174: Coupon Lunch date with Willy & Jai to Sahara Lebanese Restaurant in Burwood. Man I can't go past the Adana Kebabs and soft fresh turkish bread. Oh. So. Good!
175: At the Castle Hill Farmer's Market with Alicia! We had matching beanies and sunglasses!
176:Grocery Shopping with my boys. Jai starts waving at the coffee man before we even get to the top of the escalator. Clearly, he knows the routine! Out of the car, into the trolley, up the escalator waving at the coffee man, through the fruit and veggies and over to Jai's favourtie lady at the deli for a mini frankfurt. We've got it down to an art!

177: Costco. Wait, didn't we do the groceries yesterday? Sometimes we just visit Costco for the pizza {wink!}
178: Jai, all tuckered out after Playgroup!
179: My workplace, from the "viewing deck". Machines, machines machines. And lots of blood. That's pathology!
180: Snazzy dresser (in the work loos- so classy)

181: Heading all over the suburbs visiting Vinnies stores! I love that Will supports my treasure hunting!
182: Gorgeous boy, chilling in his car seat. I love the soles of his Vans shoes!
183: Lam Love.
184: Ok, Jai looks a little dopey here, but he's enthralled by Thomas on TV and I was trying to undress him for a bath!

So that's some recent (like, 2 months ago!!) daily events!
Have you been up to some interesting stuff?

Project 365; Collages 42 & 43

 More Project 365 Collages for you! 

Day 165: Relaxing in front of the TV, still in my work dress but also in my slippers! If only I could wear my slippers to work....
166: Lunch at work with Willy. It's nice to have some "us" time over lunch, even if it is only 45mins at work!
167: A coupon date with my 2 boys, to Northies in Cronulla. We love our Entertainment Book! I recommend them, if there's one in your area, and you like trying new restaurants {shaking hands with Entertainment Book publishers for a job well done!}
168: My good little boy, reading himself a book on our Pyjama Day at home cos it's cold and rainy!

169: A Bike Ride, cos the sun came out!! Jai loves the bike!

171: Met Granny and Papa at our fave cafe, Sergios, for Morning Tea.
172: Back at work. A week has passed already? That flies! Yes, this is my humble computer station, I embellished it with a few pics the first day I started back!

Project 365; Collages 39, 40 & 41

Hello!
Once again, I'm behind with Project 365 posts! Never fear, I am still taking pics {wink!} Of course. I can't live without my iphone now though!

Day 153: Coupon lunch date with Willy to Short Black at Peakhurst. Delish milkshakes, so thick and frothy.. Mmmm!!
154: Met up with my friend Mel and her baby Claire. We must look quite the pair, shopping around with our children, as we're both whities but Mel's husband is Sri Lankan and Willy is Chinese, so we've got these gorgeous halfie babies and people give us funny looks thinking "do those babies belong to them?" LOL!
155: Baked Mexican eggs for breakfast
156: One last Crepe at my friend Linh's shop before they shut it. The Global financial crisis is still stinging some people {frowny}.

157: How cute is this little softie girl I made? I was thinking about my niece Sienna when I made it, so it reminds me of her! She just needs stuffing, some felt buttons sewn on and a squeeker inside!
158: Jaimeson's Babushka impression.
159: Lunch at work with Willy. It's nice to see him at work again!
160: Mummy Cuddles!

161: I came up in the morning, about when Jaimeson should be waking up, and found he and Willy were both snoozing in our bed together! So cute! Apparently Jai had been protesting in the cot, so Willy put him in bed with him and he went to sleep! So cute!
162: We were out and about in the car, so popped in to Fliss and Matt's for a little visit!
163: Yum Cha with Ye-Ye. (again!)
164: Doing some baking. This was a very yummy Chocolate Tart from a cook book I got at Wholefoods in Hawaii. I {LOVE} Wholefoods, and can't wait to go back. It's an awesome supermarket that sells all organic and natural products. And they have the most awesome dinner bar filled with cool salads and veg and meals where you fill up your container and pay by the pound. Willy got a 2 pound salad dinner at one visit! LOL!

Hope you're having a great start to the week!
:) C

Project 365; Collages 35, 36, 37 & 38

Wow, time for a Mega-catch-up for my Project 365 collages! I'm finding it tough to get into the computer lately, cos Jaimeson is teething and not sleeping so good!

138: Baking for Jai's party- here are his Mini Circus Cupcakes with jelly penguins!
139: We were so busy preparing for Jaimeson's party, that we just grabbed some lunch at Maccas while we were out and about. Jaimeson loves Maccas- it's where they have the big fat straws to play with! (One day he's going to find out they serve food too {wink!})

141: Trying on all his new Birthday clothes!

144: Lunch at our local Noodle House. YUM!

145: Chilling out in new PJ's, glued to the TV! Current favourite shows are: Thomas the Tank Engine, Octonauts, Timmy Time and Pajanimals. Though the only one he will actually sit and watch is Thomas, typical boy- he loves his trains! The other shows are just fun background noise.
146: Fliss & I and our children, meeting up with our cousin Tara (and her new baby Emi,) whom we hadn't seen for 16 years! WHOA!! It was lovely!
147: Catching up for shopping with Alicia and Xander at Castle Towers. The boys had fun playing a lot of footsies in their prams!

129: Jai's first Babycino when we went into work to have lunch with Willy. I LOVE his big chocolate smile! {hearts rising from head!}
130: Coupn Lunch date to Bavarian Beer Cafe. I don't normally like beer (in fact, I hate it cos I think it just tastes like a liquid loaf of bread), but for some reason I really wanted one today and I got a Mango Beer, which was quite refreshing! Jai was really interested in it too!
131: Getting my hair done. First time in 6 months, so it was about time! Bye bye long hair! It's just below my shoulders now.
132: Back to Bunnings to return what we bought (last collage!) and get the right colour stain for the pergola.

133: Granny and Papa are back from Alaska! And Papa got a cool animal hat like Jai's. LOL!
134: My first Mother's Day! I am bummed I didn't get a nice pic, I didn't remember til I was changing Jai for bed, so this is it! Oh well {sigh!}
135: Bought Jai his first Toothbrush! Now that he has 2 little teeth, I guess we should start cleaning them! The tiny little sound it makes when you brush them is hilarious! Jai actually likes it too, apart from biting down on the toothbrush!
136: Jaimeson playing on the grass while overseeing Daddy and Mummy painting and staining the pergola. It's good to have a Foreman!
Hope you're having a great weekend!
:) C

119: Xander's 2nd (ed:thanks Yvette!) Birthday Party- a Farmyard Theme. Complete with Baby Animal Farm! Jai wasn't much of a fan of holding the animals, and if you were watching us closely, you would have seen him grab a chicken by it's head and fling it off my lap! Oops! Jaimeson 1: Chicken 0.
120: Celebration BBQ at Bicentenary Park for one of my old workmates who has just become a Policeman. Jaimeson enjoys being the centre of attention!

108: Jaimeson enjoying his favourite new thing- sticking his tongue out while riding his bike! Such a cutie!!

110: at Costco with Fliss, Cooper & Sienna! I {heart} Costco :)
111: oh so sad!!!! I waved goodbye to my 2 boys as I headed off to work for a "return-to-work" meeting with my boss. This is a view I will have to get used to in 3 weeks when I start back! Only 2 days a week tho, so that's good!

I waited for my pics to be printed at BigW. This was a Chocolate mousse Cup with a nutmeg biscuit & a meringue top. Yummo!! Yes I demolished it {wink} it was good!!

Time for more adventures of daily life in Project 365!

Day 93: Jaimeson's first word (other than Mum, Dad and Mum-Mum which is the babyish Chinese way to say food) was DUCK! Brought about by this quacking book that Granny and Papa gave Jai for Christmas!
94: Daddy came to Playgroup this week & Jaimeson showed him all his favourite toys!
95: Tasting Ice Cream for the first time. A little apprehensive at first, after all, that cold sensation is a bit weird! But then he decided it was good after all so came back for more!
96: 

Day 97: Jaimeson and his homemade drum kit which he absolutely LOVES! Its made up of a green tin pie dish, a biscuit tin & it's lid, a small star shaped baking tin, a corinthian stick tin and a wooden spoon! Best nil money I've ever spent! {giggles!}
98: My cloud brooch I made in a single morning
99: Daddy teaching Jaimeson some new drum rhythms
100: An outing at the park for soccer with our work friends. Finally, Will got to wear his much mocked "Athletes Foot/Umpire shirt"! LOL! It's actually neither, just a regular old soccer shirt, but he cops some "ref" jokes at work when he wears it!
YAY We made 100 days already! That's a great achievement!!

Project 365; Collages 22 & 23

Hi Y'all!
More Project 365 collages for you! This year is whipping on by. It's almost May people? {slapping hands against cheeks in amazement!} Where has the year gone??

Day 85: YUM CHA! Being married to an Asian means we go to Yum Cha. A lot. Well, a lot lately anyway. Jaimeson sat up at the table in a high chair next to Yeh Yeh (Will's Dad) and had an awesome time! He just thinks it is the best thing to be sitting up at the table! And yes, those are chicken feet in the foreground. Gross! {spewing a little into mouth} They are not my cup of tea! We also have bean curd rolls, prawn dumplings, steamed pork buns and pork & prawn dumplings in this pic!
86: Over to Fliss's to hang out and have a cuppa and a catch up! And deliver the bassinet for her friend Emily to borrow. Another sweet little baby gets to enjoy Jaimeson's bed for the moment!
87: Playgroup. That's Jai's little friend Leo.
88: My FREE copy of Woman's Weekley "Bake", thanks to pointing out an error in another of their cook books! That was the best email I ever wrote- I scored a free Baking Bible! And I've made a cake from it already :)

DAY 89: Jaimeson eating lunch under our new back pergola, while being serenaded by Willy on a guitar he found one day while out running during council cleanup. (We're all class around here!)

90: Who couldn't love this happy face?
91: Hanging out with Alicia and Xander. Look at Jaimeson, so happily checking Xander out!

74: Willy putting on a brave face, despite the stench at Wai-o-Tapu Thermal Wonderland in Rotorua

76: The cool Library in Wellington.
Day 77: Waiting for the Interislander Ferry from Wellington to Picton. Yes Yvette, a running stick figure man died right there. {Jokes!}
78b xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxzxxxxxxzxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx {jaimESON IS helPING me type!}z LOL!

80: Glacier Country! See snow on the mountains in the background? Yet it was warm and sunny and T-Shirt weather in Franz Josef where we were!81: How cool is this giant hand sculpture in Wanaka? It's awesome! Last time I was there they had a sculpture that looked more like a giant penis (sorry, it did!) Glad they got rid of that one and replaced it with a more family friendly scupture!
82: Catching the view from the Gondola in Queenstown!
83: Waiting for the awesome Shotover Jet! I just {heart} it so much! Even if I visited Queenstown 100 times, I would do the Shotever Jet every single time!

Catch you again soon!

Project 365; Collages 16, 17 & 18

Oh, at the risk of getting monumentally behind on my Project 365 posts, here are a quick couple of collages!Day 61:Calling into work to see Willy for lunch!
62: Jaimeson checks out the comfy chairs at Baby Kingdom while we shopped for a travel pram for NZ. He looks so tiny in that chair!
63: A day trip to Wollongong for Papa's Birthday! Papa gets some help opening presents from Xander, Cooper & Sienna! Too cute!
64: Chillaxing on Sunday night watching "Bones" which I do like! I thought that was quite a good "everyday pic", me watching TV! LOL!Day 65: Trying out a new Cafe (finally, a REAL cafe in our Suburb, one that makes milk that "whooshes!") LOL! I have been waiting for 15 months for a real cafe in our 'hood. Believe it or not there was only one place that made coffee here, and it was burnt mud, not real coffee. Hurrah for this new place! If only they could spell Desserts correctly on their sign.
66: Jaimeson on a swing for his second time ever. Hehe, too small!
67: Painted Holiday Toes!
68: Scones in the Oven, it was Dad's Birthday after all! Yum Yum!
Day 69: Look at my VINTAGE BUTTON HAUL! I had a quick stop in to the Salvos on my way to the Craft Fair with Mum & AJ, and I got this beautiful old jar of buttons for $4. Count it! $4!! You don't even need your thumb for that. Cheap!! I haven't gone through it yet, looking forward to spending some time doing that!
70: Off we go to NZ!
71: Willy standing out the front of our cool Catamaran on our Dolphin Cruise in the Bay of Islands.
72: Jai and I enjoying the breeze at Orewa. Good that we dressed to match too. {giggles}

Project 365; Collages 14 & 15

Hi y'all!
Time for some more Project 365 pics!Day 53: Daddy took us out to lunch at Noodle House. YUM! It's basic decor, but the best food. That's probably better than the other way around!
54: Day trip to Granny and Papa's. Papa set the swing up low to the ground this time, not high up like a skyscraper swing like at Christmas time! More of an ankle swing now, rather than a shoulder swing! I think Mum was a bit worried that the strings would snap & he'd plummet too far down!
55: Blood collection time. Put your hands together for the good people of DHM.
56: We spent the day at Fliss's to clean our her wardrobe and Jaimeson got to sit at the Little People's Table to eat his morning tea. How cute are the cousins, sitting all together?! Just missing Tassy! Though Jai couldn't sit on his own, I am propping him up from behind. He loved sitting at the table with the kids!57: Jaimeson's first bike ride! We recently got a Bike Seat for Jaimeson from Aldi, and it's really good! We rode to the local Tennis Courts to play Tennis with our work friends. Jai was so happy and contented, he enjoyed the ride. He also enjoyed trying to wiggle his toes under my butt as I rode though!
58: dropping off to Salvos, the 5 big garbage bags of clothes we cleaned out at Fliss's on Saturday! {high five!} And a spot of shopping for me {wink!}
59: A Hot Chocolate treat and a wander around the shops at Top Ryde City after playgroup. If you every come across an Oliver Brown Chocolate Cafe, I recommend the Dark Chocolate Hot Chocolate with Waffle Balls. Thank me later. And yes, you will thank me!
60: Lunch with Daddy again! This time an Adana Plate at New Star Kebabs, Auburn. If you don't get shot, you will seriously love their kebabs. LOL!! Jokes about the shooting... this week anyway. But an armoured truck and a car nearly had a collision in the rain right outside the restuarant while we were eating there. Lets just say screetching tires and honking truck horns don't go so well with a nice calm lunch!

Project 365; Collages 12 & 13

Happy Friday y'all!
More pics from Project 365. I love doing this fun project a lot more now I have an iphone (when I'm not wanting to throw my iphone against the wall, for other reasons. An iphone is both a blessing and a curse; they love you, and do heaps for you, then they come back and smack you in the face with stupidity and stubborn-ness. Well, at least mine does. Soooooo frustrating!!)Day 45: Meeting up with Granny and Papa at Macquarie centre. I do love our "Tuesdays once a month meeting up!" {hugs}
46: Milton the Monster! Jaimeson's new toy I made {smiles!}
47: I do love seeing this little fella's washing on the line. It's so small and cute!
48: Jaimeson and I stumbled across this baby bird cowering in the long grass on the edge of the path while we were out walking. I think it might be a baby Mr Puffy! I called WIRES and they said to put him up high somewhere cos his parents were likely around. I was worried a cat or dog would get him! He was soooo cute and fluffy and sat neatly in the palm of my hand! I put him on a brick fence next to where he was. I hope he ended up ok!49:Jaimeson's first ride in the seat part of the shopping trolley! He lasted the whole way around Coles, he was such a good boy! He waved at the Butcher (a big man too, who waved back, cos how can you not wave when such a little person is waving at you!), and charmed the Baker lady who oohed and aahed at him! Then he chatted away to the checkout chick! It was soooo cute. He loved being up high, not stuck down low in his pram!
50: Piecing out my Quilt on the study floor. I've even sewed some of the strips now too (not finished though! EEK! I am so easily distracted!)
51:My cheeky boy pulling faces while he eats his dinner. So cute!
52: Jaimeson enjoying himself at playgroup. He's never played with a hoop before!
Hope you have a good weekend!!

P.S. I also found these 2 old collages from January/Feb in my 2009 Project 365. Enjoy the little walk down memory lane!
