🌸 Me and B 🌸 My lovey friend and talented p 🌸 Me and B 🌸

My lovey friend and talented photographer @jmflorals recently snapped this pic of us girls at a special little boys blessing ceremony. It’s getting a frame for sure. The sass is on another level with this one.

Our little pink cheek cherub is turning two in July and my heart is simultaneously aching and excited at the same time. 

Excited for this little one to start speaking and growing into herself, but also heartsore knowing that my last little baby is now almost too big for her cot. At least she still loves my lap and cuddles…for now.

Motherhood. What a ride. ❤️

🧜🏻‍♀️ Mermaids 🧜‍♂️ The upsi 🧜🏻‍♀️ Mermaids 🧜‍♂️

The upside of not being on holiday in December, is we get to have the beach alllll to ourselves in April.

We rented a lovely @airbnb close to the hotel, and spent our mornings on the beach and afternoons around the fire cooking supper.

The kids swam every day and caught fish in the tide pools when the weather turned. Salty kisses and tangled hair blurs of laughter.

What a privilege.

🍳 Eggs on sourdough, Theo style 🍳 Our first 🍳 Eggs on sourdough, Theo style 🍳

Our first lazy Saturday breakfast back on the farm, I thought I had to post it to the grid as it feels like a milestone.

Anthony Bourdain said it best:

“What nicer thing can you do for somebody than make them breakfast?”

🌸 Baby Amaryllis 🌸 Hume’s great aunt, or 🌸 Baby Amaryllis 🌸

Hume’s great aunt, or “granty” , as she prefers to be called, gifted Hume a basket planted with big white fluffy Amaryllis flowers when he was born.

The basket deteriorated with the years and our move back to the farm was the final push it needed to completely fall apart.

Taking out the bulbs I realised that this gorgeous girl has made SO many babies! I am thrilled to say I now have three baskets to fill with “Ammies”.

I love putting them in old “pluk mandjies” (picking baskets) 
and leaving them in my garden under trees in dappled shade. Last season was quite a “snaily” one so most of my blooms were 🐌-lunch but I’m crossing my fingers for beautiful blooms come Spring.

What are you prepping for your Spring garden? Please tell me I would loooove to know.

I’ve done some seed swops with friends and mailed sweet Cape Town friends with other seeds, so I’m very excited to see what my Spring garden holds!

Anyone else keen for seed/bulb swaps?

🎵 Slowly writing our own song in our new home 🎵

Golly gosh, people tell you that moving house is stressful but I honestly forgot how much stress it actually is. Nevermind the fact that we now have two additional little humans that also went through the motions with us.

Hume has totally regressed with his potty training and Belén developed a phobia for any and all bugs as well as getting into the tub. All this since moving house.

Last night was the first time in the new house that Belén wasn’t washed whilst kicking and screaming, thanks to bubble bath!

Hume is also back in his “treat for a loo visit” system and hopefully things will start looking up for him soon. We have spoken about painting his room too and that he can choose the colour all by himself. I am hoping that this creative process will make his new room feel like his own!

Any insta friends that recently went through a move with toddlers? If you have any tips please share!

🍳 Last Sunday Brunch 🍳 A brunch of leftover 🍳 Last Sunday Brunch 🍳

A brunch of leftover pulled pork, chocolate pancakes, boiled eggs, rooibos tea and toast for our last Sunday morning family breakfast in this house. Bittersweet.

Even though we are so very excited for our next chapter of living on the farm, I will always love this house because both our babies spent their newborn days here with us. Late night feedings, early morning wake up calls, first baths, baby snuggles, Christmas tree decorating, garden picnics, lockdown art, sweet pea and veggie garden projects, puddle jumping, golfing and bird watching.

I hope the next family will also only find joy in this special space. Cheers to fresh beginnings! 🥂

💗 International Woman’s Day 💗 Flowers in 💗 International Woman’s Day 💗

Flowers in my kitchen sink and my heart aching for the women and children all over the world today. This pain and suffering is overwhelming to fathom. 

In the Victorian era the “language of flowers” were primarily used to convey messages without speaking them out load.

These flowers are for all the women out there that can’t speak up right now, for what ever reason. My hopeful message for you today.

🌸 Dahlias: Resilience. You are stronger than you will ever know.

🌸 Rosemary: Remembrance. May you remember where you come from and stand proud in your beliefs.

🌸 Lambs Ears/ Woolly Betony: Soft, Gentle Support. May you treat yourself and others with compassion.

🌸 A season for change 🌸 Our seasons are sta 🌸 A season for change 🌸

Our seasons are starting to change. Not just weather wise, but for many people, also emotionally.

Whilst organising my garage last week I came across my seasonal seeds and remembered that it was almost time to plant my sweet peas.

It got me thinking about the things we hold onto or the things we let go of in life. Moving house definitely forces you to do that!

You start to wonder where some of these “things” even came from and forces you to consider if it still serves you in the way it once did. This is a big life lesson for myself and a question I keep going back to when considering who and what I spend my time on.

This is also the reason why I know I love my job, because it brings me SO much joy.

Life is just way too short to spend it on things and people that don’t make your soul tingle with excitement, gratitude and inspiration.

My beautiful friend Liz from @grow_giirl is also moving house at the moment and shared a couple of lovely thoughts on “changing seasons” that resonated with me this morning. I love listening to her podcasts and watching her weekly Insta stories. She is so inspiring!

So if you needed a little “push” from the universe this morning to prioritise the important things in your life. This is it.

🦢 Baby Gurl Belén 🦢 This lucky little fish 🦢 Baby Gurl Belén 🦢

This lucky little fish recently got the biggest most generous gift from her aunt Sybie @sybildoms 

A suitcase filled with the most exquisite little smock dresses! Every time I take one out of these frocks out of her wardrobe, she exclaims, “Mooi!” (beautiful).

Even though these dresses are over 35 years old, each and every one if them are still perfect.

As my favourite vintage finder on Instagram @mrs_trufflepig also feels, I truly wish I could fit into these dresses too! 🌸

Like I’ve mentioned before, I am hands down my own worst client. I’ve been updating my website for the last 8months, yup, you heard me right! 8 months! 🥴

Anyway! It is finally alive and kicking with brand new pictures from the ever so talented @clairevogeli 🥰

The link is in my BIO, let me know what you think! I am still slowly adding new projects, but it’s a nice compact overview of all the services that I offer.
