Day 155 - A day full of Parties

We had a day full of birthday parties today.

We started the day celebrating Patrick's birthday and finished the day celebrating Rubi's birthday. It is for obvious reasons going to be a very busy time for us with all our little friends celebrating their 2nd birthday. It was such a busy but fun day. We have more birthday parties coming up in the next 2 weeks.

The girls have slept very well today, I hope it continues with a sleep in tomorrow morning. I know, I am dreaming. I can live in hope can't I?

Day 147 - Keeping up the tradition

Last year on their 1st birthday, both the girls had tonsillitis. I had thought we were breaking this tradition with no obvious illness after taking Olivia to the Doctor on Monday.

However, you may have read in my earlier post that I shared a bed with Olivia again as she was coughing up all night. It hadn't really eased by today so I thought another visit to the Doctor's would be a good idea. (For the record that was the 3rd visit with the girls in 7 days)

Of course we walk away with another diagnosis of tonsillitis around their birthday and start up on the antibiotics and nurofen cycle all over again. Thanks Olivia for keeping this fun tradition up!

Day 144 - Birthday Eve

After a very long day at work it was nice to come home and get things prepared for the girls 2nd birthday. We cooked 2 cakes, wrapped all the presents and even had time to decorate their chalkboard ready for when they woke up in the morning.

We had prepped them both as to whose birthday it was tomorrow and how old they would be turning. I am confident they know both know that they'll be 2 tomorrow. I can't believe they turning 2. Certainly they are no longer my little babies, but now they are my gorgeous little girls.

I take a little comfort that my friend Sarah has to go through the birthday thing before me as her gorgeous little men are 2 today!
