It’s all for you

To my gorgeous girls, Billie and Asher, We're done! It has now been a year since I posted my first post on this blog and made the commitment to share something everyday.  365 days worth of sharing!!! It was a struggle at the end, I won't lie.  Not because I didn't want to do it, but with …

She’s walking!

So Miss A has been teasing us for some months now with her attempts at walking.  She has been quite happily walk along holding our hand and even walk half a dozen steps in between us, but hasn't quite figured out how to stand up and take off. Or I should say hadn't, because she figured it …

It’s Monday again?

Already?? Wasn't it just Friday? I hate how the weekends go by so quickly! And as we scream towards the end of the year, I feel as though the week is upon me before I've even finished it! Oh well, at least I can look upon this pic that I took yesterday and chuckle! Happy …

Sick bubba

You know those times when you're up every hour with a sick baby and then dawn rolls around and you realise that there is no way you're going to get to work today... yep, that's was my day today.  Poor Miss A has bronchiolitis again so after heading to the doctor, we bummed out on the couch for a quiet …

Temperature’s rising

As a born and bred Queenslander I'm not adverse to the heat.  40 degree (104F) days, whist hot, are not unbearable for me.  Thankfully, living in Victoria, we have a different kind of heat.  Still plenty of 40 degree days but the air is dry and you're not having to swim in the humidity which …

Day of rest

It's probably a little lazy to make the title of each Friday post TGIF but that's generally how I feel once I get to the end of the week.  TGIF pretty much sums up the sentiment the minute I wake up (not at 5.30am - yippee!).  This Friday was no different and after breakfast, and …

In preparation

It hit 36 degrees today and it was glorious! I'm a fan of the hot weather and whilst most gripe in the heat, I thrive.  But today we spent most of it indoors, getting the house ready for tomorrow's epic showdown between the Hawks and the Eagles. The girls got to spend some time their …

Back to reality

Three times I have tried to sit down and write something this evening.  Three times I've tended sick and/or cranky children, including stripping the bedding and changing an outfit after a projectile power-spew.  It would appear that after my mini-vacay, reality has come back with a vengeance. Today had been going along swimmingly, ok, so that's …

All the preparations

Well, Miss A has turned one and we're having a party on Sunday... So much to do, so much to do! It's nearing midnight and I have a few things left to do so here is a summary in pics! Priority number 1 - make the cake! I believe that making my girls' birthday cake is …

TGIF

Friday's are generally a great day in our household.  It's my day off and the chance to catch up with my girls.  But I have not looked forward to a Friday the way I have this week for a very long time. It's been a long rough week.  But today that was all put aside. …
