Sami woke up on Father's Day eager to find out what La's school stall had on offer. La shopped for herself and Leyla and this is she came up with...
 From "Leyla" two cookbooks...
 ...because Baba likes to cook! (All our stomachs thank you!)
 The Card.
 And from La...
 ...a perfectly accurate mug!
 Because, as we know, Baba LOVES his coffee! Well Done La! Very thoughtful choices.
 And our photographer for the morning - Lucho! He kept us company for a couple of hours that morning before heading home to spring his own surprises for his Dad after work.
 Love his shirt from his Grandpa!
 After a kick of the soccer ball at the local park it's a quick stop over at the local Shetland pony for some morning tea of carrots.
 Here he is. Well, we think it's a "he" anyways...
 Picnic lunch in the backyard of Sami's favourite - Pide.
 It was a day of events. Not only was it Jack and Pa's birthday - La's friend Sienna turned 6 as well. La and I dressed up for a special dinner at Sienna's favourite restaurant.
Happy Father's Day Baba!!!!!!!! xo

Here's a post devoted to our Miss Leyla engrossed in all things that fascinate toddlers...
 Washing cars....
 ...never mind that only a very small section of the car was cleaned...
 ...but with La's help we managed to fall into the slightly efficient child labour category!
 I woke up on this particular morning to find Leyla replaced by a belly dancing gypsy.
 Sami was mad keen on sharing his childhood love of toffee apples with the girls. La wasn't a fan (nor am I actually) but Leyla lapped it up. I didn't volunteer to clean up this particular mess - he who gives - cleans in my opinion!
 Morning Hair!
 Leyla's becoming very proud of her drawings and...
 ....her piggy tails.
This is not me giving textas to babies. See above re about who cleaned up this little mess.

A mish-mash of events over the last few weeks...
 La and Sienna were lucky enough to go to their old pre-school friend Emily's birthday party.
 The Birthday Girl herself hanging with Leyla.
 Here's a pic of Leyla building an amazing tower...
 ...and here she is sporting a face rivaling any footballer. It was one of those weeks - sigh.
 La still had a few remaining rides left from her last trip to the Thomas the Tank Engine farm so Sami took her for a day out.
Shopping, lunch and an iceypole at the park topped off the day out. x
