We are off to Paityn's first birthday party this weekend, she is such a little princess it should be loads of fun. Thanks to Krissy too for sending me all the little princess bits and pieces to make her a card, I am making it now. Mwah! Krissy you are too lovely :) Tonight Tim and I are going out to dinner with a customer of his and his wife. I can't wait, can you tell we don't get out much!!! LOL! A little layout of me and Kob's. This post is all about him today!!
I better get moving, this has taken me forever to post, we have been down the back playing in the sandpit now Cooper is snuggled up in bed. I have to get this card finished and wrap her present.
Have a wonderful weekend and thanks for stopping by!!

Now to update on the boys. Firstly, the big boy played footy today and scored 2 tries, 1 each for his babies!! Unfortunately his team lost and he also hurt his knee. He is tucked up in bed, had some pain killers but I'm not looking forward to the whinging he is going to do in the morning when he has to get up for work!! Lucky he works from home and doesn't have to make it out of bed until 8:15am!!! LOL! Kobi is 8 months in a few days time. He isn't crawling yet, but moves around constantly on his belly, going backwards and rolling over to get to where he wants to be. He did pull himself up on his knees yesterday and is also trying to pull himself up on things with his hands. So I don't think it will be long before the crawling begins. He is still a tiny little fella but growing slowly, he just isn't a big eater (he is alot like his mother was when she was a babe - so Mum keeps telling me). He is growing and developing so that is all that matters. He is the sweetest little thing and I just love him to bits. He is very clingy at the moment and I do love his cuddles but in the meantime the house looks like a bomb has gone through it as I can bearly leave his side and get anything done. Now, Cooper is the cause of the house looking like a bomb has hit, I think we might have to start calling him cyclone Cooper. I am trying to teach him to put things away before he pulls the next lot of toys/colouring books/books out. But do you think I am having any luck with that one?? NO, he is 2 after all!!! He is very clever and just seems to know way to much for a 2 year old. He comes out with the funniest things somedays and you just wonder where he gets it from. I sneezed the other day and he says to me "Bless you Mummy". It was soooo cute. He learns so quickly. He is great with his colours now and we are now trying to get him to count to 20 (he's got 1-10 down pat)! He sings songs and hums to tunes. He runs around the house like a ratbag and is known to tackle his brother (poor baby Kobi, I don't leave them together too often) most of the time Kobi just laughs at his antics but is starting to crack it when Cooper takes something off him. Sometimes a naughty little Cooper but I just love him so much and love watching him learn and grow! I had better leave it there, those of you who read this (does anyone read this??????) are probably over my raving on. 
Not many people would know but I used to paint before I started scrapbooking. Here are a couple of the ones I have left and a have up in my house. I think I stopped painting in 2004 and somehow got hooked on scrapping. Tim wishes I still did paint because I used to sell them therefore we would get money for them where as scrapbooking he says costs him a fortune!!! But he loves me!! I mainly did underwater scenes but also did some character ones (like Elmo, Tiger, Pooh, Ernie & Bert) for friends. I also did orca whales and I did a Tiger for my mother in law too. I guess this is where all the colour comes into my scrapbooking, just love it bright!!
