Luka is sitting in a bumbo chair - how did this happen

So my little angel is  3 months old today.  I simply cannot believe how far we have come, from a little monster that intimidated mom and dad with her screaming, to a cutie pie that smiles and coo's and sat in a bumbo for the first time yesterday!

Look, I am not saying that she is meek, no, she still has an iron will of her own and basically all of us does everything around Luka and her routine, the memories of the screaming child still firmly entrenched in our still sleep deprived minds.  Its just that she no longer scares us, she is very cute, smiles often, loves her brother, has this shy kind of laugh that melts the heart, bats her eyelashes as daddy (seriously not making this one up). 

So to all of you who refused to take her (gumtree add, one small baby for sale, one set of previous owners, comes with all accessories, willing to pay costs), you missed out, she is no longer available, we are keeping her, and as Liam says rather often, "she is only small, but I looooove her".

I had a stunning Louis Vuiton Bag

I love handbags, I am crazy about them, I would forgo food for a good handbag.  Everybody has a 'thing' and mine simply happens to be handbags.  Big ones, small ones, madly expensive ones and el cheapos that you get at the flea market, grey ones hand crafted by old ladies at the old age home, shiny metally ones.  I love handbags. Well guess what?  No, not that Guess, not as in the handbag...I now have a diaper bag.  A red one, and it needs to double as my handbag.  There is just no way in hell that I can manage a two (almost three!) year old, a two week old, a diaper bag and a handbag, something had to give and in this case, it was my poor almost new chunky Louis Vuiton bag.  I miss it already... The thing is, when you have a baby, some things are just not meant to be. At least this time around, I have managed to paint my nails (all of them, fingers and toes) twice, and I have worn make up on at least four separate occasions.  With Liam a...

On the eve of my first protest

It is the eve of my first ever protest about anything really.  I am a little scared, a little excited, a little apprehensive but extremely motivated.  For those not following South African politics, our President last week fired our honest Minister of Finance and the South African economy took a tumble and we were downgraded to junk status by ratings agencies. Economic and political uncertainty ensued all because of one man’s greed and corruption.  Junk status has dire implications for our country and as always the people who will be most affected are the poorest of the poor.  Interest rates will rise, so will inflation and food prices, jobs will be lost, the list of horrible things goes on. Ordinary South Africans have now had enough and for the first time ever people from all walks of life are united behind a common cause, to save South Africa.  I have never in my 40 years on this earth been moved by any cause, not enough to actually take...

My new obsession...

So why did it take me 36 years to finally find MAC make up.  I am in love, I think I love my new make up more than shoes, and that is a bold statement coming from me, the ultimate shoe addict. Let me start at the beginning.  There is nothing that intimidates the average woman more than any one of the beauticians working at any one of the counters in your department store.   Clinique ladies are mean, always using mirrors and lights similar to the lights used in operating theatres to show you things like enlarged pores, well of course the pores are enlarged Hun, you just put like a million candlelight power worth of light on there.   At this point my nostrils must be spectacular.   And lets face it, despite global warming, we are nowhere near that levels of magnification or lighting here on good old mother earth.  My two year old will have enlarged pores under those conditions!   In the end, despite telling the Clinique girl that you are an ar...
