Blasphemy!

If you someone who is offended by accidentally taking the Lord’s name in vane you should probably click away now…

Yesterday as many things went wrong as went right. It wasn’t a major ‘you-have-to-be-kidding-why-does-it-always-happen-to-me?’ kind of day, just a few niggley little things that just didn’t go our way. I guess the kids heard either me […]

I sent them to their room…

Actually they sent themselves….
After having a play at a kinder friend’s house the girls have discovered the idea of ‘playing in your room’ and they like it!
There are a few reasons why I like them to play out in the lounge room - I like to be able to keep half an eye on […]

Wordless Wednesday - On Days Like These…

On days like these it is best to try and remember how they were before I wanted to sell them….

You can find more wordless (or almost wordless) Wednesday at Five Minutes For Mom

Super Powers… yes I still have em!

It’s World Breastfeeding week - a time when we celebrate the super powers of boobs across the globe! I seem to have made a habit of posting about my ’super power’ ie the fact that I can make milk that grows small humans, each year around this time so I thought I had better throw […]

Flick Friday - TWO!

Two is something I know a lot about… a heck of a lot of my life revolves around two. Finding two pairs of shoes or jeans in the same size. Finding two t-shirts with the same pattern/design but in different colours. Buying two car seats, two bikes, paying two sets of kinder and ballet fees. […]

Wrong Kind of Sick

Of course, my kids are all sick, again.
I kind of expect that at this time of the year so it’s not the frequency of illness that I want to whinge about, it’s the kind of illness. Can I just say how much I hate ‘breathing sickness’…. give me a good ’spewing sickness’ over ‘breathing sickness’ […]

Dancing Princesses

The Twinadoes went to their first ballet lesson last night.

A not very good photo of them with their neat ‘ballet hair’ before we left.
Decked out in ‘dancing clothes’ and their fluffy slippers they ran around on ‘demi points’ (tip toes for those not up with all the ballet lingo), made ’sensitive hands’ (learning to make […]

Step… Step… SPLAT!

You do not want to wake up at 3am to the sounds of ’step… step… SPLAT!’
Warning… this post is about vomit… read on at your own risk!
Poor Izzy is still sick, off and on. She had been off her food and just all ‘lay on the couch cause I’m gonna spew’ at the beginning […]

Indoctrination.

It is ‘mega huge half yearly toy sale’ time here at the moment. We don’t get toy catalogues delivered to us (too far out in the sticks for anyone to bother) but a very kind friend bought them over for us to have a look at.
I had a quick scout through looking to see if […]

Questions and Answers…

Following on with our recent theme of deep and meaningful questions from our resident four year olds… Today we were having a chat while we ate lunch (last nights left over chile and tortillas turned into nachos of sorts) about food and friends, which may seem an odd combination of topics but we are having […]
