I can't believe how big my girls are both getting and how quickly time is flying
Kaliya is 8 months today and that freaks me out
Ki is getting more and more independent
(She is singing to herself in this picture)
they are great friends and have a lot of fun together already
Shakinah really is a little Mummy to Kaliya
always looking out for her
which of course means the more than often beating up by the older sister to prepare her for the real world
Shakinah has such a hilarious little personality
our favourite activity as of late is while Kaliya is having her nap
Ki and I have a little picnic on the salon table
she has finally figured out how to eat cheese and crackers with the cheese staying on the cracker
mama's proud!
Kaliya is just all smiles
smiles
more smiles

On Saturday we threw a small birthday party for Shakinah
we had planned to throw one on Shakinah's actual birthday August 8th
but since I was in America (and we still had a lovely one with my family in America)
and Johan didn't get to be there
I wanted to do something
your child only turns 2 once
plus I just like to have people in our home
let's be honest
Love my big girl!
Julia made a beautiful cake!
Farah of course had to get in on the action
it took a few tries
Honest, I didn't blow them out ;)
got caught
it was a lovely group of beloved friends and family!
I wanted to share this picture...we have a beautiful forest and open space to walk right outside of our house
and this is how it looks in august in full bloom
it's all purple!!
it's breathtaking
