Little Kickers

Mini hasn't quite grasped kicking a ball about with her big bro. Instead she likes to pick it up and run like the wind much to his annoyance. Today We've also been playing with water squirters and building a camp with the deckchair cushions. Now that's something I used to love doing and mini is enraptured with it too. She runs up and down her secret tunnel squealing.
Today mini is wearing an outfit from one of her first ever fashion files. A cheesecloth babydoll top and bloomers from Bonton. They may be sizes six and three months respectively but with the forgiving fabric and light elastication they fit perfectly aged fourteen months! Just a little shorter.

On The Town

Mini took a jaunt round town with her papa today. Taking in the sights of san josep with a trip to the chemist, playground and supermarket. Busy bee indeed she waved hi to the passing cars in her hot pink Paisley Calypso for Target playsuit. Needless to say she stopped traffic.

Beachy Keen

First day in ibiza and it's straight down to our favourite beach of Cala Carbo. Pumping base lines and Tattooed bronzed people watching it's not. Instead it's low key and local and is the perfect chill out for us and the kids! 
I finally got my two into their swim trunks and matching hats. Getting them to keep their sunhats on however is like getting victoria beckham to crack a smile or ditch the hooker heels for that matter. Nigh impossible but somehow I managed it. Phins postcard print set from Rachel Riley was a super gift from gorgeous Angela and Jagger while Mini's matching daisy print frilled bottoms and sunhat came from JoJo Maman Bebe and are fantastic as they double as a stylish swim nappy to boot. 

Playdough mayhem

Phin has discovered playdough. He's kneaded it before but he's finally mastering the whole cutting, rolling, splicing and squidging thing and he's loving it. Mini on the other-hand just likes ransacking her big bros room. Today Mini is truly resplendent in her fuchsia pink origami dress by Zara given to her by our nanny jenny. It's her last day with us so it's only fitting that Mini showcases such a great gift again.

Digger style

Mini has appropriated Phins tractor slash digger and although her feet don't quite reach the pedals she is keen to drag her big bro around the garden in the little trailer attached. Phin being the lad of leisure that he is doesn't mind a jot. Minis wearing her Gap cornflower eyelet dress and Phin is checked out in Cos.

Sand pit duty

There's nothing mini likes more than building up her empire, sandcastle by sandcastle.
Today she's trying to bring on the sunshine with her cream broderie and lace trimmed dress from tante poppy by the Gap.

Pack it all in

We've been spending the day packing all our gorgeous holiday clothes that haven't had much of an outing as yet. We're off on Saturday and although it's a tad early to have everything packed, when your dealing with two kids and easy jet which doesn't give little min and her enormous wardrobe any baggage allowance at all!!!! Creative packing comes into force. Thank heavens it's my job. Yes a stylist is ultimately a glorified packer, steamer and Dresser.
Today Mini is wearing Phins old diesel denim skinnies and an old Bonpoint rose print blouse and crochet waistcoat. Check out the fingers placed nonchalantly in her side pocket. Fierce posing. Tyra would be proud
