Feeling Foggy

February 28, 2011

It’s been dark and gloomy outside since Saturday evening. Cold and damp and so foggy I can’t see anything much outside my window. It feels like the weather is trying to be kind. Keeping everything outside under wraps for a little while. Because there is big scary stuff waiting for me out there. There are [...]

Colour Hunt – Pink

February 23, 2011

This week we’ve collected pink things to photograph – Izzy’s favourite colour. We took this photo a while a go and looking at it again yesterday the girls thought it was like our very own page in an Eye Spy book…. “Eye spy two detached arms, a winking pig and a chest full of treasure….” [...]

Never Ever.

February 21, 2011

I’d always assumed that I’d have to call an ambulance at some stage. I thought it might happen for one of the girls if they had a particularly bad asthma attack. Perhaps for a snake bite? Or more likely if my husband had an argument with a power tool. I never, not even with my [...]

Easy Art For Kids – Frame a Portrait.

February 15, 2011

At the end of last year the girls were drawing self portraits as school. They came home with lots of drawings and paintings of themselves at the end of the year and each chose one of their self portraits to be framed and included in the school art show. Inspired by this we decided to [...]

Sleep, What Little There is.

February 14, 2011

“People who say they sleep like a baby usually don’t have one.” ~Leo J. Burke I used to have a that baby. The one those people were talking about. A baby who slept for seven hours when he was 4 weeks old. A baby who slept so well overnight I would wake up desperate to [...]

Printable Love or Lunch Box Notes.
February 3, 2012

I am back making school lunches and next week my big boy will need lunch for kinder (preschool) too, thankfully only once a week, but all of them want to know when I will start leaving notes in their lunch boxes! So I think it’s time for some new lunch box notes. I am not [...]
