Prizes!

Who doesn't love prizes?

Yesterday, a certain sleepy young lady and I loaded up the stroller and took a walk to local post office.

We were on the way to pick up a parcel, and for once, I had the presence of mind to have the
camera close by for the opening of the parcel!

There was certainly some excitement as we walked back home, package in tow. Right away, I sat down and opened it. Here is what I saw: Right away, I knew I was in for a happy package! Inside there was an awesome beach/pool bag.

There were 2 really cute beachy frames.

There was a really cool little bag made from neoprene. Check out the print - how cheery is that?? There was some absolutely divine yarn. Socks That Rock Silkie - and LOOK at that colour! Doesn't it look delicious?

There was an absolutely amazing quilt kit - I love it, I can only imagine that Sprout will too!









And finally, there was a Tulip hat for Sprout. I put it on her.

Then I told her it was too big and she'd have to wait to wear it. This is what she had to say about that.









I have to say a great big thankyou to my secret pal Nessadawn123 for the awesome package - I love it!

Speaking of things I love, have you seen my daughter? Damn, she's something special. This is one of my favourite things about her: when she feeds, she holds her ears on. Not all the time, but a lot of the time. It's awful cute.

I am so glad you like everything!! I seriously had so much fun being your pal!

Also, when Oliver was tiny and nursing he would rub my arm for the first 10 minutes or so. He is now almost 2, and still rubs my arm to soothe himself when he is tired, even though he hasn't nursed in quite awhile. So you might be surprised to see her holding her ears on a lot later! :)

She just gets cuter every day, yes?
