What easter looked like this year........

The above is a traditional kenny easter cake, I grew up making this cake in my home, a chocolate cake covered in chocolate shredded wheat to make the nest, and marzipan chicks made (and eaten) by William....Love that I am starting to carry on traditions with my kids that my mum did with us.

Spot our new lodger (my sis) Christine in the background...it appears she has started to live on our couch.

Hyde park Easter Egg hunt with the kids from church....but most importantly a good social for the mums.

All in all 3 easter egg hunts, a killer easter roast dinner, chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate, and time with The Dixons on easter Monday. And William mentions the easter bunny in his prayers now.

I Miss his HOT body!

Anthony is away for a few days and with the cold weather that's come in I found my self freezing missing Anthony's body heat! One reason why Anthony and I are a good pair is because I often have icy cold feet and his hot blooded body is perfect to warm them up on!

These April showers are taking the mick when it hails too! Bring back the sun!!!

William and Anna....

Anna adores William, her face follows him round the room and beams at any acknowledgement and interaction from him. William is really quite protective of Anna, he doesn't like strangers holding her and tells them to "give Anna back, mamas Anna, mamas Anna"! A passer by came to coo at Anna and William told the lady "no look at Anna, no look at Anna, go away"!

I love hearing them giggle at each other and discover random games like "catch me Anna", as William runs by her and she grabs at his feet. Both giggling. William can get quite rough with Anna and she is heavy handled every which way but never fusses.

They are quite literally chalk and cheese, he is all menacing and she is a doll, rag dolly Anna......

look see for your self.....

(right before he turned the hose on Anna)

Things I say a lot... "get off Anna, leave Anna Alone William, be gentle, don't pull her, don't push her, no you can't pick her up, no she can't eat that, Anna can't kick the ball yet (as he gets frustrated because she's not playing back)".........

Poor girl gets worn out

love them.
