my weekly photo winners

Connor wants a kiss on his neck...

I don't know what they're doing either but apparently I need to "talk to the hand"

this is a terrible quality pic but I LOVE the naughtiness :)

Organising - do you use shoe holders to organise?

these are just 4 of the CDs stolen from my car on Tuesday - yes, I was very cross. Those are my favourite worship ones on the bottom. These are just the cases.

this sight never fails to cheer me up

my word of the year necklace from this etsy store (I have 4 of her things!)

All my "courage" stuff together

Print from artsyville, another etsy store

pretty yoghurt ready for the babies

and then this is my true weekly winner - I love this series of pics of Connor.

He looks like a baby again *sob* and amazing, he was still so none of the shots are blurry!

Have a look at the rest of the weekly winners submissions at Sarcastic Mom - there are absolutely STUNNING pics this week!

February - week 1 pics

We're trying out our canvases in different areas of the house to see where they look best.

Here's the one of the babies... (I am SO glad I got this crawling one -love this stage)

and here's the one of us. This is our bedroom wall - the colour's called parsley or something similar :)

then my friend gave me this lovely red pencil with

"Keep calm and carry on" printed on it - I love it!

Connor's new thing - he flings himself down anywhere when he wants to sleep. Why doesn't he just tell us?!

A very successful lunch at Mugg and Bean - the babies had funny face breakfasts (yes, for lunch). As you can see, Connor LOVED it.

Kendra also did - the face is because she wants water at that precise moment and Dion wants to feed her food

And then... finally, the babies' plastics are contained and pretty!

This is my weekly winners post :)

Weekly winners and that's January done!

Looks like I'm turning over a new leaf. Look at me - 1 Feb and up to date with Jan pics :)

My colleague, Ros, always does the MOST beautiful food for her birthday. She did a huge spread and this is just one platter full of yummy fruit. Here is last year's pic of yet another pretty platter.

Later that same day, taken through my office window

Connor loves cars. When I arrived home, he was out of that door so fast and this is him exclaiming, "car!"

And then later, Kendra saw where I hid her dummy (pacifier). Look at that excitement, poor thing.

I was on a course in another building at work and just as I was about to jump in my car and race out of there, I happened to glance through the pillars and saw this...

I noticed graffiti artists a few weeks ago on Louis Botha Avenue (you need nerves of steel to drive here - crazy taxi drivers) and finally got a couple of shots. I just stuck out my arm, mostly held the shutter down and hoped for the best.

Walked to the gym to try out yoga. Hated it but on the way back to the office, well, look at this - put me right back in a cheerful mood.

Ps 19:1 All of creation shouts out God's glory

They are obsessed with my camera case.

Connor concentrating...

Kendra (look at baby hands)

then I get the evil eye because her brother took it from her.

It's survival of the fittest around here :)

This one was taken at church, in a rare moment of stillness

My favourite drink, ready and waiting for me in a meeting room first thing on Monday morning.

I'm linking these up to the weekly winners meme at I am Lotus.

My week in pictures

Date with Dion at Piza e Vino

my favourite drink, water with lemon

D's pizza

mine - we ordered half and halfs (fabulous idea for indecisive eaters like me)
I had tandoori chicken with peppadews, coriander (mmmm) and yoghurt, and steak strips with caramelised onion (not as caremelised as I'd have liked) and rocket

Melrose Arch - love the angles

Back to work and this, a sign from God to get my body back into shape

a lovely rainy day

with some bright and happy colours

I couldn't resist picking up these two brochures from Flight Centre and drooling over them...let's call it inspiration

this afternoon, getting photos printed and up on the walls
