MiaKaite: A day with Tilly

Let me introduce you to my little sister Tilly Lynn. She just turned 2 back in August and is probably my favourite person on Earth. I found these pictures of her on my computer from April this year and thought they were too cute not to write a post about.

My dad put up this little swing for Tilly under our Bali hut and she loves it. It even has a place for food so she can sit and eat in it too!

Tilly finds it hard to say my name; it’s understandable. Emelia is a hard name to say. (ee-mee-lee-ah) So her attempt to say my name usually sounds like ‘Mia’, ‘Mila’ or 'Meena'. This is where Mia came from for a nickname and also why Mia is a part of my blog name.

I love her hair like this in two little buns. We find it very hard to control her crazy hair so by using a variety of hair ties and clips my step mum managed to do this adorable style. It’s hard enough to keep her still for long enough let alone actually doing her hair.

We live on the water at my dad’s house so we went down to the lake to feed the ducks. To Tilly’s disappointment there were no ducks that day, only fish. So we fed the fish instead. I took these cute photos on my Iphone and was surprised how well they turned out. They are some of my favourite photos of Tilly.

After lake and swing adventure we headed out for afternoon tea at a place called BSKT next to the surf club at Nobby’s beach. I’m pretty sure the initials BSKT stand for the owner’s names, but I always end up calling it Biscuit.

There is a place for the kids to play which was is lucky for Tilly.

I ordered a smoothie called a Miranda Kerr. I mostly choose it because of its name but it was delicious. The ingredients were – coconut sorbet, almonds, Brazil nuts, cashews, coconut oil, honey & cinnamon.
