and the fun just keeps on coming…

More fun in the sun for Georgie today when we visited yiayia and pappou – grandparents- in the village of Agios Georgios tou Kafkalou. Their whole family was there barbecuing, eating, drinking and singing, much to Georgie’s delight who even gave them a little show. He danced, clapped his hands and tried singing along! Some of papa’s cousins were even recording with their phones! oh what a proud mummy I am! Even more so when he decided to continue the dance fest at home and began dancing to the Rolling Stones!

Easter Sunday

I took so many pictures today, sorting through them gave me a headache. Actually it’s my bloody allergies that have given me a headache. Hayfever plagues me EVERY year and no, it didn’t ‘pass’ with my pregnancy. period pains, yes. But not my hay fever.

Anyhoo, despite the strange weather- super hot one minute, cold and dreary the next- and subsequently, our ruined Easter egg hunt, georgie, papa and me had a wonderful time with my family at my parents’ house.

egg painting

Easter Sunday is coming up which means egg painting has commenced. Sadly I haven’t gotten round to doing it this year but my sister made up for it with yellow and red eggs. The red ones were dyed using beetroots while the yellow ones were made with daisies from her garden. So awesome. I wish i could’ve gone round to her mother-in-law’s, who apparently makes flower prints on hers by wrapping the eggs in tights- or pantyhose. Oh and another natural red dye can be achieved with red onion leaves. of course you need a ton but it is natural. We’re planning an Easter egg hunt too so come Sunday i should have some beautiful pics coming your way.

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.

when Georgie discovered the lollipop

Should I? Shouldn’t I? papa brought a lollipop home for Georgie. A cherry-flavoured one and i just couldn’t decide whether it was a good idea or not. He’s almost 14 months and has already enjoyed a cupcake and some whipped cream so what would be so wrong with a lollipop? Well nothing I decided so Georgie had his first lollipop a few days ago ….and he was nice enough to share it with papa.
