Too hard

Hey guys, I've been a bit slack on this blog front for quite some time. I've been focussing my attention (when Ned doesn't require it) over at Trainee Mama blog and facebook page.

I would love if you could come like my facebook page and sign up as a follower or subscribe to my posts via email.

It won't all be baby related - a mix of baby and lifestyle/fashion posts.

I won't shut this one down - it has some great memories; it's just to hard to maintain two!

I'll soon get back to reading all of your blogs soon I promise!

Melbourne Cup

As I sit down in front of the TV with the baby asleep drinking a beer I realise life is pretty darn good. Yes, some days are hard but noone ever said it would be easy having a baby. Life is pretty good when your parents are more than happy to look after your baby while you go out boozing for Melbourne Cup day. 

Katy and I went to a function at Cafe Le Monde at Noosa where the food was amazing, the drinks were flowing and the band was rockin'. Isn't Katy's headpiece AMAZING?!

Earlier in the week my fabulous friend Katy and I decided to check out the cafe at Kunara organic marketplace in Forest Glen. Katy and I have bonded over a number of things and one of those things is our lack of interest or excitement in all things clean eating like superfoods. Listening to her describe the taste of kale to me almost made me wet my pants and certainly did not have me racing into the store to pick some up for that night's dinner. The coffee was good though and the desserts looked pretty damn good too but we both restrained ourselves. It was the perfect occasion to take some snaps of each other too - we both usually have to do mirror selfies.

Baby Shower Style

Dressing post pregnancy is certainly hard. I'm struggling with the mummy tummy and also with the idea of dressing appropriately for breastfeeding. I can't really wear those breastfeeding-specific singlets and bras because they don't make them in my size! Talk about small boob discrimination.

Anyway, for my sis-not-yet-in-law's baby shower I wore two new items to my wardrobe - a peplum top from asos and a skirt from the Coles Mix Apparel range. I've never been much of a straight skirt person but the colour, pattern and price of the Lawn Green geo print skirt drew me in.

(Ned obviously wasn't too impressed with his converse hi-tops but I couldn't resist - how cute are they?!)

What She Wore - Twin Style

Today my twinnie gets a feature on the blog cos I just couldn't resist snapping some photos of her lovely self in a beautiful yellow frock. We attended my brother's partner's baby shower today at a beautiful Italian restaurant at Mapleton on the Sunshine Coast hinterland and enjoyed the beautiful views and weather. We'll get to meet our new little nephew hopefully within the next few weeks. I'll feature my outfit later in the week which included a skirt from Coles!
