A day in the Shadwick house hold.

We all woke bright and early, 6 am Chris got up with Joel getting ready for work, Chloe and i layed in bed until Chris has to leave for work and then we get out of bed. We say goodbye at the door. I make myself toast and a coffee/tea depending on my mood. Make Joel his breakfest he usually will tell me what he would like it mostly always is toast with butter which is peanut butter!! He has a small tea also very cute. Chloe lays on the floor playing with her toys giggle and rolling, ill give her a milk as we sit down to have breakfest and she will be back in bed at 8am. Then Joel and i start our day. This usally will be cleaning making beds etc.. We love cooking together Joel and i.
Joel helping in the kitchen.

We always go for a walk in the afternoon before Daddy get's home, sometimes well wait out the front for him. This afternoon we went fishing which was extra fun, Chloe and i sat on the edge watching Joel and his Daddy fish Joel nearly brought in a fish but it got away! :(  He was so excited.
Then we come home to a beautiful clean house which doesn't happen alot these days hehe had some dinner watched alittle bit of tv Joel had a bath got in to his pj's and went to bed. Chloe also has a nice bath with her big brother they love having baths together. Chloe in her PJ's bed with a milk of to sleep she goes she is a wonderful little baby truly blessed.

My neighbours invitd me over to watch a movie with them, as usually i didn't want to go as of the kids but Chris made me go im glad he did it was great having some me time with my wonderful neighbours! We are so very lucky to have such a great neighbours these days it hard to come bye.

Then come home to the worlds best partner and father, went of to bed read my book fell asleep in his arms.

A bond forever

We share a special bond

that grows stronger through the years.
Looking back on things we've done,
I realize that some of my happiest memories          
are of times we've shared.
You give me the freedom to be myself -
there's never a need to pretend.
I'd like you to know there will always be
a special place in my heart for you -
My Sibling and My Friend

Looking back

Chris and i were sitting down lastnight thinking back on how much Joel has grown, how  hard it was when we had no idea how to be parents. We have come along way but still have so many pot holes in the road. Sometimes they are really big holes and we have to claim out, sometimes they are just a little one we can walk over. Life is full of challenges, i wouldn't change any of the ones Chris and i have seen in our little life together. Our little man is two, three in october looking back on all those gorgeous photos of him as a gorgeous baby i thought i would do a little timeline from birth to now.

There he is growing away in my tummy!

The one amazing thing about Joel that i would like to share is that he knew the first time he saw Chloe she was his. Truly breathe taking,

He will always have a very special place in our hearts our baby Joel he taught us alot as parents and in our relationship. Those big brown eyes just like his daddy's melts my heart everyday.

Sunday Fun

Our Sundays we try and do family things just the four of us! We did some some cleaning in the morning which is always a challange with my toddler.


Chris made us a yummy lunch of nachos.

Then we spent the afternoon watching Chris new found sport UFC Ultimate Fighting Championship. Which was different. While Chris watched and Joel slept. Chloe and i went for a nice walk to the shops and brought myself a splice i truly forgot how good they were.

Before we went out to dinner with Chris dad we decided to have a quick water fight out the front which was so much fun. Chris, Joel and i. I do believe i lost as i was the one dripping wet! :)

Overrall we had a wonderful weekend. We try and make our Sundays extra special.

What does everyone else like to do on there Sundays?
