FatMumSlim's Photoaday Challenge

I love Instagram!

I think I probably use it more than Facebook these days. I just love the instant photo sharing and being able to connect with Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr etc.

Blogger FatMumSlim puts out a monthly list photo challenge. It's a list of words, sayings etc that you then take a photo to correspond with the days challenge. I don't always succeed in completing the whole month but I definitely try my hardest.

I would definitely recommend checking it out if you use Instagram!

Below are a selection of mine for October so far.

Halloween

Every year, I wish we celebrated Halloween in Australia.

Yes, there is more and more stuff being stocked in shops each year for it, but there are still very few people who have Halloween parties or have lollies for kids who want to go trick or treating.

We always try to remember to have something on hand for the kids who come to our house on Halloween. What I really want to do though is decorate the front door area and verandah. Make it all nice and spooky. There are so many great ideas online of things to make to decorate for Halloween, glitter pumpkins, Halloween candles etc.

I saw this on Buzzfeed and I HAVE to make them! My husband LOVES TMNT and watermelons are so much easier to get than pumpkins in Australia. How cool are these?!

Happy Trick or Treating to anyone who is planning to go out this year!

Baby Bullet Bliss

This morning, I went to pick up my beautiful little girl from my parents place after she had a sleep over last night.

When I arrived my mum pointed to a large box in black plastic wrap and says "That's for you". No description, just to open it. I said thank you for whatever was inside because I didn't even care what was in it, I was just grateful to have a present!

I eagerly tore off the plastic and inside was a Baby Bullet! Yay!! I have really wanted one of these!! I got it home opened it, gave everything a quick wash and dry, then it was time for dinner!

Purée apple and carrot for Scarlett for dinner tonight courtesy of my new toy. She loved it, mouth opening and closing waiting for more.

I can't wait to play around with different combos of flavours and meals. Does anyone else have one of these? If you do what is your little ones favourite meal?
