• Oh how I love these girlies

    Since Eliza turned two she has been going to preschool on a Tuesday only. I was initially worried as to what this meant for me job wise but it's actually proved to be a great day for me to deep clean the house, get up to speed on washing and do any other jobs that are needed. Eliza was given a preschool branded t shirt, something all the new children get or can buy. Luckily she got a really nice green one because Cassidy's ones are blue and yellow. Cass is a little jealous though but that is to be expected. I did a mini photo shoot of the girls before heading to preschool on Tuesday and I just adore this picture of them hugging. As Eliza's grown you really can see the sisterly love between them, at least until one of them hurts the other. In those moments of hugging it is just pure love and joy. Cassidy is so desperate for Eliza to love her so it's even more lovely that they are engaging more in these moments together. Nick and I are realising this week how common and easy to find 4 leaf clovers are. At the moment we have 5 in a shot glass and with the one I found the other week I think that means we have a lot of luck going on. On a sad note our car is up for sale. It really is all coming to an end faster than I'm liking. I cleaned out the inside while the weather was good and just decided to do the outside as well on the farm's wash pad with the high pressure hose. As soon as I got to the pad the weather changed and a storm started to roll in. The wind was so strong that it blew all the spray from the hose all over me and without a hair band for my hair I was pretty much scrubbing the car without sight. I got soaked from head to toe but we did have a lovely clean car afterwards. I got it too our garage just before the real rain started and gave it a wipe down to get off the dust we'd collected in that 200m drive. Luckily as well there was a brief window of better weather so I was able to take it out and shoot all the photos needed for the advert. This was the first car Nick and I jointly owned so it's rather sad to see it up for sale online. The girls and I got to help out Nick and Candy this week while they treated calves. Eliza demanded we go on a walk after we got out the car one morning so we headed over to the calf sheds to say hello. Turned out they were really struggling to get the calves treated and checked as well as trying to operate 2 gates with only 2 of them. We were positioned on one of the gates for about 45 minutes until other people turned up to help. It was quite nice to be so involved in Nick's side of the farm for once although it was a bit challenging trying to manage two small children at the same time but somehow we did it!Weiterlesen
