Tessa's 3rd birthday

Our little baby is three... and requested a princess party. So we did our best to please.

Tessa's first bike :)

After a quick costume change...

Birthday breakfast pancakes!

Finally party time!

A very happy princess with a new dress

Excitement continues...

Cheese!

Forgot to take the picture before we started to cut!

Longirod Update

Only 5 more months until the house should be ready, and time has flown since I last posted and there was snow on the ground... We have been enjoying regular visits to the sites, and here are a few pictures of the most recent ones. Tessa is getting very excited about the new house, and has told us all sorts of details about what her room will be like so let's hope we can make some them come true! (I don't think we will be able to provide a dinosaur for her room and a pig for Dayna's but maybe she will have forgotten about that by then!)

Dayna sandwich!

Sisters

My sisters are very special to me, and I couldn't imagine life without them. It's lovely to see the budding friendship between Tessa and Dayna, as they grow to know each other a little better each day! Here are some of their moments....

Under Construction

We are very very very excited about our move planned for the end of the year and here are some pictures of the progress during February, for those who have asked!

We are back!

It's too bad it took me so long to post again, but there's nothing like a newborn baby to get you wanting to share pictures again! Typing this makes me realise how long it's been since I've sat down at a computer to type, just using my iPad most of the time has significantly reduced my typing skills!

I don't have much time this morning so I'm going to make do with posting a few pictures of our January events :) Needless to say Dayna is bringing us lots of joy and smiles, and Tessa is coping well with the new addition in her life!

Here are a few of my favourties. I have to figure out how to watch the videos from my new camera on the computer before I can post those...

Saturday morning shopping is the best!!! Breakfast at Coop followed by a carousel ride. (By the way, the hairdo is Tessa's own doing, not mine!)

Having fun with Daddy on the weekend! Play-doh football and cuddles xxxx

And a few pictures of Dayna Brooke ;)

 

Her first bottle!

 What's so strange about raisins in my Rice Crispies??

 Chillin' wiv ma sista

The most we've ever had around our kitchen table!!

Toasty warm

Shhhh Mummy, I'm very busy!

 Saturday afternoon stroll at the Vallée de Joux with Marcelle, Mandy, Miriam and Sarah.

 Snow is my favourite and my best!

 Not the most flattering picture, but what can you do when your 2-year-old won't stand still for more than 3 seconds??

 Daddy's girls.... and Dayna looking up to her big sis ;)

 Sunday afternoon out and about at Rolle. I think Mummy needs to go on a diet, we are stuck!

Sand! Hold my gloves!

 Here Daddy, a present for you.

 Sleeping through it all, and most of what goes on most days!

 What you looking at??!!

 Tessa loves music!

 Big smiles!

Have a great day!
