Red Robin

26th May, 2012

– music and lyrics by Clark Richard

she is just a baby
she’s my little girl
she looks like her mommy
sporting little curls
she’s got lots to learn
though she is sure to know
that I’ll quietly spot her
anywhere she goes

now our little lady’s out with daddy for the day
she fought the yawns but couldn’t stay awake
as I place her in the car
she’s out like a light
cause she knows I’ll get her home all right

she went from the backseat
to hands at ten and two
college came too quickly
her leaving feels too soon
Now I swore I’d be strong but
These are happy tears
Cause I get even prouder
With every passing year

now her weekends will be full of hanging with her friends
but someone needs a call before nights end
she knows I’ll toss and turn
no chance I’ll sleep tonight
til I know she’s made it home all right

if time could only give me
a moment to reflect
to smile on all that has been
to treasure what is left
though I won’t always be here
this you surely know
that I’ll quietly spot you
anywhere you go

and when we are apart remember it is not the end
you know enough to know we’ll meet again
I’ll be waiting by the gate
standing just inside
til I know you’ve made it home all right
til I know you’ve made it home all right

let’s go home

Feeding Sophia

26th May, 2012

My first attempt in giving Sophia her first solid is not as succesful as I would have want it to be. She is not that interested yet but on the 3rd day since it was her big sister who was feeding her, she seems to be happy about it and finished everything her big sis offered her. We weren’t really prepared that day and I have no baby spoons or bowl yet so I ordered this from cow & gate. For £15 it contains the following:

Cow & Gate cool bag
Splat floor mat
Cow & Gate baby rice 25g sachet
Cow & Gate fruity porridge 25g sachet
Cow & Gate creamy carrot & potato 125g jar
Cow & Gate sweet potato bake 125g jar
Cow & Gate 100% fruit apple & pear 100g pot
Cow & Gate 100% fruit apple & banana 100g pot
Tommee Tippee Essentials bib
2 x Tommee Tippee Essentials food pots
2 x Tommee Tippee Essentials spoons

Cow&Gate Weaning Starter Kit

I also made squash puree which we can just easily thawed when Sophia is hungry….

Now off to Denise’s party with the girls and the hello kitty rockstar cake I made. Later I will get back on my noise cancelling ear buds hunt for my brother. Today is going to be a fun day for my girls….party! party!

A Hello Kitty Nursery Room

26th May, 2012

One of my FB mommy friend is soooo much into hello kitty that she even dreamed of having an HK theme car, bedroom and so on. I used to like hello kitty too but Alyssa was never interested so I guess my love for hk just dissapear. I was looking for a trailer hitch online and some bodysuits to give to a friend when I saw these all HK themed nursery room. I’m pretty sure any hk fanatic would love them!
