Harlow’s 2nd Birthday

Hi everyone,

Harlow’s mummy here…. It’s birthday season again and Harlow can’t wait for her birthday next week. I am busy making all sorts of plans and fun surprises for her.

I have made a two gift lists for those of you needing some ideas or are overseas.

Harlow went to a friends party today and had so much fun. She really gets the whole birthday thing now. She is growing up so quickly, she is such a chatterbox and little dare devil – not afraid of anything!

Anyhow, here are the links to the gift lists. Sorry it’s a bit late notice – I wish I could buy everything on here (shame our flat is too small)

And of course Harlow loves clothes, books and dressing up costumes.

Happy shopping.

Guten Tag from Saalbach

I am so lucky this week we did something strange, we went on a family holiday! This is a rare event as Daddy works so hard all the time, he rarely takes a break but it’s all for my benefit, so we can pay for my fun activities and spoil me rotten. I was really excited to go on […]

Harlow’s best bits 2012

Here is what you have all been waiting for…… previously unseen photo’s and video’s of my antics over 2012.

Get the tea on because you’ll have plenty of time to drink it, it’s hard to put a whole years worth of fun in one small video.

 

Merry Christmas

I just wanted to wish you all a very belated Christmas. Mummy has been busy with all our Christmas celebrations and having Omi and Poppy over that she has neglected helping me with my blog.  So our Christmas wishes are actually coming on New years day, oops! I’ll make it quick so I can get […]

Omi and Poppy in London

This gallery contains 22 photos.

My Omi and Poppy have been visiting me for the last two weeks.  They came in time for Mummy’s birthday which was a big one this year – 30! Omi and Poppy arrived on Wednesday 12th December at Heathrow airport at a decent time ( we usually have to get up at the crack of dawn to […]

Count down to Christmas

  It’s not long till Christmas now, as I write this it’s only 8 more sleeps till Santa arrives. I have been such a good girl all year for Mummy and daddy that I think he might just come down our chimney on Christmas Eve.  I hope Mummy has given it a good clean! Last […]

London like a tourist

On Thursday Omi and Poppy’s friends Bill and Lyn arrived all the way from Australia. They are staying with us for a little bit before Omi and Poppy arrive.  They have known my Mummy since she was a very little girl. They used to all go 4WDriving together.  Bill and Lyn have never been to London before so there was plenty they wanted to see and do.  We made a big list of all the attractions, museums and fun things and we decided to tackle things in a group so they got to see as much as possible in the time they were here.  This meant that I got to enjoy being a tourist again. We visited some of the same places as we went with GNan and GDad, I am getting to know my way around this big city.

First stop on Friday was Harrods – Lyn loved all the different things that you could buy. It was her birthday so she was hinting to Bill about buying a very sparkly necklace….. Unfortunately for her I don’t think he got the hints. It’s almost Christmas so all of London is lit up like one big Christmas tree, I think you would be able to see it from space. Harrods and all the big department stores decorate their windows and this year Harrods had a Fairy tale theme, all my favourite stories were there. I think Mummy’s favourite was the Cinderella window which had a beautiful sparkling Louboutin shoe in the window.

Next stop was Hyde Park where we chased squirrels and fed some as well. One came right up to me, he was very friendly.  Last year around this time we visited Santa at Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park and all the fun things were there again this year.  I eyed up lots of fun rides that I would like Omi and Poppy to take me on when they get here. Mummy bought me a big pretzel which I liked but I was more interested in exploring the rides and walking around which worried Mummy as it was very busy and she didn’t want to lose me, I am very fast.

The sun was starting to go down and we still wanted to visit Buckingham Palace so we walked the rest of the way through Green Park, kicking all the big piles of Autumn leaves until we arrived at the very large Palace.  We all took lots of photo’s and I think Bill and Lyn were very impressed with the Queens residence. They were also very surprised at how quickly and early it gets dark here.  So when we left Buckingham Palace it was fairly dark which made them feel like it was 7pm not 4pm!

Lyn wanted to visit the Ritz which was right next to Green Park station, it was all lit up and looks very grand. So we walked around to the entrance and asked the doorman which direction to go for a hot chocolate and babycino instead of pointing us in the right direction he politely told us that we were not dressed up enough for this hotel and we were not allowed to go in for a drink the only direction we were heading was back out the entrance. Next time Mummy will have to dress me up in a pretty dress, my cute little smiles couldn’t sway him this time.

Feeling slightly rejected we decided to head home and wait till tomorrow for our next big adventure around London.

Harlow’s Christmas Wish List

It’s that time of year again and Mummy has helped me put together my Christmas wishlists.  We have all heard how expensive it is to post presents from around the world especially Australia, so we thought this might help, it worked great last year, I got very spoilt – thank you. I think I have been a very good girl this year (and I am sure mummy and daddy would agree with me) so I am really looking forward to Christmas.

Mummy has promised we will get a real Christmas tree this year and I am allowed to help decorate it, I already have two special christmas baubles to hang up.  Omi and Poppy will be here and we are all going to have so much fun.

There are two lists at the moment – Toys R Us (toys)  and Next (clothes). Mummy and I went to the shops and tried on some clothes and played with some toys just to make sure I like everything. Mummy and I went shopping yesterday for a new beanie so mummy took a video of me – I was having fun in the shop.

I have added the links and all the details you will need to access the gift lists:

NEXT – (Clothes) Winter has definitely arrived and I have grown out of all my winter clothes and shoes from last year.  Please note if you purchase from this site, it asks for your delivery address – the only address you will need is our home address. Do not include any Australian addresses as it won’t work, this confused some people last year.

Mummy and I going shopping next week to buy presents for my cousins and friends.

If none of these items take your fancy, email my mummy and she can offer some suggestions – I can never have enough Raincoats, Wellies, beanies and headbands.

Happy Shopping!!

November

This month so far is a little more quiet than the last.  At the end of October I had Mummy’s cousin Nicole visit from Germany which was great! She really likes me and gave me lots of attention.  I played with her a little bit and gave lots of cuddles.  She has a friend that has lots of snakes and she was showing me all these cool pictures which should have prepared me for the snake encounter at the farm.  Mummy, Nicole and Daddy went to a West Ham football game on the Saturday as Nicole is a West Ham supporter.  Whilst they were braving the cold and the football hooligans I went to Rae Rae’s house.  Rae hadn’t seen me much over the summer as she has been working in Ibiza – where I am told is a very fun and warm place. She is back now so I asked Mummy and daddy if I can spend the day with her.  She is an interior designer so she has lots of interesting books, my favourite being the Chanel book.  She also took me for a babycino and I had so much fun, I hope I get to spend more days with Rae and her boyfriend Craig.

News this month is that I have acquired an English accent. I sound very posh when I say ‘Mummy’ and ‘My daddy’.  Mummy thinks I picked it up from watching Peppa pig which is my favourite show EVER!

Even bigger news is that Mummy and Daddy bought me a new big girl bed last weekend.  I love my new bed and after 2 nights I was happy to sleep in it. I love the freedom although I don’t think Mummy loves it as much.  Once I finish my bottle of warm milk I sneak out of my room very quietly tip toeing up to the door way into the lounge room where Mummy and Daddy watch TV.  Sometimes they catch me and send me back to bed. I am very proud of my new bed and all my new bedroom furniture, I am a very lucky girl.

Mummy has started talking about Santa and Christmas, and all the shops are lit up with pretty fairy lights.  I remember last year I met the big guy in the red suit, I wonder if I will see him again? Those of you who like to spoil me with presents mummy said she is working on my gift list this week and will post something in the next few days. My Omi and Poppy will be here this Christmas so it will be extra special – I can’t wait!!
