Our Kiddies

One year old parties are often criticized as being for the parents and not for the kids.  And I suppose that could be kind of true to some people, but…

I’ve been finding it difficult to take pictures recently.  Not that it’s my job or anything, but I normally really love to do it.  I don’t know why I’ve been…

Knox has finally popped a tooth. At last. I’m pretty sure that if he could talk he would say something along the lines of, “I got a tooth, I got…

Recently I have had some time to sit back and reflect on life (with my laptop being busted and all it kind of aided this process).  I even had a…

Since the move things have been pretty crazy.  Apparently there is a whole lot of stuff that you have to do besides just getting moving and unpacking your crap.  I’m…

I can’t believe our birthday has come and gone already without it even really feeling like it was even here.  With so much going on with the move and everything,…

Can you feel that glorious South African sun creeping into your windows and warming up those toes? I don’t know about you, but Summer is starting to emerge around here…

You guys, moving is no joke.  I think my mind is about to break.  Which I’m concerned about – because I’m not quite sure how to get it back together…

Everyday I sit with my kids in the afternoon and try and establish what they did that day.  Sometimes it’s easy and they just tell me exactly what happened, but…

I’ve often wondered if going to therapy would help me or if they would listen to just one retelling of an afternoon in the life of me and immediately admit…

Good morning lovelies! I have been trying to work at home some evenings and when I have a Milo break I have a nifty little screen saver that shows me…

I was halfway through writing a deep and meaningful post about moving houses when I was stopped by this dude. I think he did the world a favour.  He actually…

I haven’t watched this movie.  But if I had to hazard a guess, I would say that Stella was a part time working Mom of 3 lovely, but busy and…

It’s not often that I am affected by the things that people say to me or about me.  Not any more anyway (shout out to high school Cindy – you…

Sort of like my currently post a while back, there’s a lot going on.  But when I do have a chance to take a picture it seems to be going…

I like to make a big deal out of things. It doesn’t have to be a big deal, but I will make it one.  It could be anything really –…

Do you remember way back when you were at school and you had a civvies day or a “bring a monkey to school” day or a “wear your pants on…

Today I am sitting in the midst of 3 sick, moody children and I think that I am slowly losing the battle, in the fight against all the germs that…

It has become apparent to me that soon our faces are going to be plastered right at the top of every restaurant list, right under the “DO NOT LET THESE…

I’m so sick of thinking about packing and not packing and how I should be packing that I have decided to think about beautiful clothes instead.  Aaaaah, that’s better. On…

It seems to be birthday season at the moment, the girls celebrations are still dying down in our house and yet we are attending parties like it’s going out of…

This week has been pretty amazing – on the blogging side of things anyway.   The Spar Savour Magazine issue is just too cute and then thanks to Sticky Fudge,…

Have I mentioned that we took away Riya’s num num? I don’t think I have, which is quite weird considering it has made a huge change to the stability that…
