A Day In The Life Of The Alfino’s

There’s no use in sugar coating it.  This week sucked.  I’m so over saying that our kids are sick but unfortunately it is very true again. Kyla is suffering with…

When Kyla turned 1 I thought it would be awesome for each of our kids to do their own painting with the same mediums (a canvas and finger paint).  Because…

Knox is such a great baby.  Whenever someone asks me how it’s going, my standard line is, “He is a dream, it’s the girls that are giving us a run…

When the girls, Knox and I are home together all day on Friday’s I have been struggling to manage my time to be with them when I don’t have to…

One of the things that I have been told by many people is that I must let the older sisters help with bathing or changing nappies so that they can…

This is what I have to deal with for the rest of November… He’s so eager to rock the Mo that he did it a whole day early…  Lucky me!…

When we had Kyla I was in shock with the amount my life changed.  Looking after a little person was no easy task.  When we had Riya, I was like,…

I may not have been able to pick up the camera as much as I have wanted to over the past 3 weeks, but when I have I am grateful…

This past Monday the girls, Knox, my Mom and I went to our first play date since Knox was born.  Which was only 6 days before that.  I know it…

So, we just got home yesterday and things are a bit hectic.  But I can’t help but share how gorgeous this boy is, so here are some pictures until I…

A big sister and a littler sister before they become 2 big sisters to their little brother.  For now they are still look like my tiny babies, but soon they…

9 years ago today Seth and I started a really wonderful relationship.  It hasn’t always been easy but it’s always been worth it. I love you so very much Seth!…

So the 25th of this month is my birthday.  Just 5 days before Thumper is due to arrive and grace us with his presence.  However, we have now decided to…

I don’t like being stuck at home.  It makes me feel bored and like I am just wasting time.  Plus going out has so much more opportunity for adventure and…

I realise now that I will probably only have my belly for the next 2 weeks.  3 if I’m unlucky and he decides to come a whole week late.  That’s…

I don’t have much to say.  Well, I do, but I don’t have the energy to write it all.  Besides, these pictures don’t need words.  Well maybe a few… Firstly,…

Last week Monday we went for a check up with the gyne.  The girls were with us and they get quite excited to come and see their brother each time…

I mentioned on Facebook the other day that I just can’t believe that we are at that phase where the girls can ride their own bikes to the park and…

I never knew that I was such a procrastinator until I was pregnant with Thumper.  It’s ridiculous.  With Kyla my bags were packed at like 25 weeks, “just in case”…

On a lovely, sunny Spring Day this past Saturday, I was truly blessed by having such a beautiful baby shower for little Thump-a-roo!  Our wonderful friends, Zoe and Julie put…

I am finally on “maternity leave”, spending this month at home resting and preparing for Thumper to arrive.  It’s a little taste of what I assume it would be like…

It’s kind of an unspoken rule that our kids are not allowed to get dirty.  Ever.  Sounds like fun, I know.  But when their Dad is a bit of an…

I know I have been a bit of a morbid person lately and this has unfortunately translated onto the blog.  I apologise.  For those of you who have stuck it…
