Cravings

The day after Christmas feels a lot like a Monday.

Our Christmas day was spent well. Good food and a peaceful energy around the house. We did the stocking tradition at breakfast and gifts right after. Note that baby boy was thoroughly spoilt with gifts from all over! From cousins, aunts, uncles and grandparents. And true to his baby boy nature he ended up playing with the boxes and wrapping paper instead. He's got his priorities straight.

The day was so eventful that I ended up crashing while nursing him to sleep at around 6pm. But not before chatting to my family back in SA. Ps: my brother is possibly the smartest person I know and it makes me happy to know that we can still comfortably chat for 2hrs on the phone and not run out of conversation.

I feel like every post is written in a rush these days. And there's so much I'd like to share. About the progress in crocheting - my mother in law says that I have a bright future in crocheting. Not in my wildest dreams have I ever even imagined hearing such words being directed my way. And the joy they give me makes me smile even harder. Oh and I'm going gaga on substituting facial products with things you can find in the kitchen. Seriously revolutionary. It deserves a proper full post. I've been walking around feeling quite pretty these days and I owe it all to honey. This probably makes no sense to you right now so I'll stop. Just know that raw honey used as a facial wash is the answer to flawless skin. Thank me later.

Besides that, it's life as usual,  reading ( cook books mainly), hanging out with baby boy, reading to him (he likes to turn the pages), Robdawg has been working super hard and his work ethic is being well recognized:), there's been long walks, a play date at the park - baby boy and I made new friends! Oh and there's the laundry...we can never forget the laundry.

I look forward to new years eve, I'm craving a good party. Music, good company and lots of dancing.
