Ethan is growing up so quickly

"Take a picture of me drinking milk mummy"

We had a HUGE day yesterday! (More about that later) - but we got home at about 6.30pm and Ethan had such a big day that he didn't get to nap. But, he did fall asleep in the stroller at about 5.45pm on our way home. So he slept the whole night through until 5am apart from a quick snack for dinner at 8.30pm when he woke. Fortunately for us he read books in his room until 6am and "the sun came up" (that's a direct quote from Ethan). He was so happy during breakfast and just looked so grown up eating his weetbix on his own at his little table that I could not resist taking a few pictures. While I was taking pictures he said, "Take a picture of me drinking milk, mummy". He is talking so well now, I love his little words.

Yesterday we left home at 8am for bible study - meeting our friends Anne, Sarah and Hannah on the way (Anne is the mummy!) and with coffees in hand went to the MTR (train). Bible study went from 9.30-11.30 - it was just awesome to see all the ladies again after the Summer holidays and spend some time praying and planning our next study.
Then we were off to MEGABOX. This is a huge shopping centre in Kowloon Bay and it has a Spotlight!! Anne found curtain material for their apartment and I went on a stamping and scrapping spree! It was so much fun. We even managed to control our two 2 1/2 year olds and four year old! After Spotlight we found a great cafe called "The cheesecake cafe" and had delicious cheesecake for afternoon tea and the kids had strawberry and banana smoothies.

We had to stop off at the kids level to look at some fun stuff for them before we headed home. It was a long day but so much fun.
