today…

…Georgie and I chilled. We had strawberries and weetabix for breakfast……went to the mall for a milkshake and some book browsing… (ended up buying wrapping paper and a DVD)……took a quick trip to the park for some ice cream……and we then ended the day getting dirty, feeding Tano and using our new chalk on the veranda wall. I picked up this natural and above all washable chalk from Tigadoo, one of the only-if not the only- eco-friendly kids’ stores in Nicosia. Such a great variety of wooden toys, clothes and hygiene products. Love that place!Moments like these make me wish I could feckin draw! But I can’t so poor Georgie will have to do with a orange-lemon tree. Hope you have a lovely weekend!xxx

It’s friday. Thank you.

I have just dropped Georgie off at his grandmother’s. He will be staying the night and i have no plans so here’s what I’ll do

1. Wash my hair.. I can’t even remember that last time…think it was Saturday. Eeek! maybe i should put on a mask too.

2. Cut my toenails. Why is everything I am mentioning so gross?

surprise!

on Friday my brother turned 24! We threw him a sort of impromptu surprise party which he really appreciated despite saying he hates surprises. I mean, who hates surprises???After dropping Georgie off at grandma’s I turned up the volume on my new Black Keys album and got ready. New Rolling Stones t-shirt on display!i was in charge of the decorations…but obviously not very observant when it came to picking them out! It turns out i also need work in photographing surprise parties because I failed to get my brother’s expression when he walked in. Happy birthday bro!xxx

at home…

  I rarely stay home with Georgie. He was days old when I took him out and to the mall for the first time. Granted it isn’t the most creative of places but it was cold and I was in dire need of a shopping trip. Plus I think it’s good for kids to learn to be out and about instead of cooped up indoors in front of the TV-gasp! Even if it’s just for a walk outside, leaving the apartment’s four cold walls makes me feel better and therefore baby feels better too. Yesterday the weather wasn’t too kind though- extremely windy and dusty, the worst when you’re suffering with allergies- so we ended up staying indoors. We listened to some music- we’re currently loving the new Black Keys album- read our new Puppies book and somewhere along the line I found time to tidy my wardrobe and put away my winter coats. Georgie found time to mess around.

say hello to our little friend

Papa brought home a little surprise yesterday. His name is Evo named after papa’s super fast Evolution rally car. Haha, right? Anyway Georgie seemed more interested in grabbing the jar and smashing it against his head so Evo is currently living by the window munching away on a lettuce leaf.

In other news, we paid a visit to a good friend this afternoon who had a freshly baked cake waiting for us. She also has a pretty little garden Georgie just loves to play in. No garden here, you see. This might be the ideal time to mention that we are planning on giving him exactly that. A lovely little home is being built in the village where my parents and sister live. It looks like we might be in by the end of the year which is so exciting I won’t allow myself to jump up and down JUST YET.
