Party Number 4..

Is done and dusted!! The next one is Lucas'!! Yikes!! I have hardly done any planning for it so I am silently panicking about it now.. actually, nah, I'm not really, I'm just doing what I usually do and leaving things until the last minute.. then I'll start panicking come Friday!!

Anyway, today after Lucas' swimming lesson and morning nap, we headed up to Belair National Park for Elke's big monster bash..

I've been hearing all about these little monster softies for weeks on Facebook, but seeing them in real life, was WOW!! Her very talented mum, Emma, made 70 (yes 70!!), of these little monsters for all the kiddies.. They were all individually sewn and stuffed.. It was such amazing work!!

 

Here's the birthday girl, Elke, with her parents and also enjoying some of that yummy cake!

Okay, I lie, we did spend a little time this arvo trying to clean up the back yard and pergola area ready for next week... So while we washed the windows and swept the ground, we sat Lucas in his swing.. It's nice to know that Indy has welcomed Lucas into the family by asking him to throw the ball for her.. lol.. I love Lucas' expression.. "What? What do you want me to do??"

And here's yesterday's photo of mine.. Lucas' new shoes came in the mail yesterday, they are just so cute on him!! He's never really worn socks (apart from on his hands to stop him from scratching and rubbing) or shoes before so he was definitely a bit unsure of having something on his feet, but hopefully he'll get use to it..
