Riya-Ray

One of my new little ways of spending time with the girls is to leave Knox with Seth’s Mom and then take them to the park for a quick run…

I’ve been told that I need to get my kids into modelling because they are just so beautiful.  While I emphatically agree that they are the most beautiful things on…

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…

Our company decided to have a very informal gathering to meet up and just enjoy each others company outside of work.  We were initially going to take a boat out…

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…

So I know that I have been a little bit scarce around these here blogging parts, but I’ve been busy dealing with this: Yes this is a picture of Riya…

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…

What a hectic week!  We have been home since Thursday and for the most part it’s been going really well, despite a disgustingly early bout of mastistis.  Yesterday Seth went…

Seen the new Batman movie?  Then this line might stick out for you, “They Only Took Me Seriously When I Put On The Mask” and if not, it certainly stood…

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 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,…

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…

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…

The girls are finally playing so beautifully together with only minimal tears, screeching  and hair pulling – if it’s early enough in the morning…  It really is the sweetest thing…

I have been meaning to do this post since Mia arrived but the time was better used actually spending time with her.  I’m sure you understand. On 18 Aug it…

Look at this picture and tell me who you think it is… Now what if I told you it was the model the new Jools Oliver Littlebird Clothing line and…

The girls absolutely LOVE to run!  I’m not kidding.  They will run from the kitchen to the lounge or from their bedroom to ours in the middle of the night…

Despite all my pre-mothering statements, I realize that my girls are really spoiled!  It’s actually borderline ridiculous the amount of things that they have and I’m not proud of it.…

Besides a pink cake, the only other thing the girls wanted for their party was a jumping castle.  Kyla LOVES to jump and is constantly making our bed into her…

It appears that my kids think that they are schmodels.  And maybe they are a little too good at it already.  Riya definitely has the attitude down.  Although when Kyla…

I’m sure that you have all seen by now that Kyla is kind of obsessed with pink, and thankfully Riya just goes with whatever is happening and is not really…

Man, parenting can just be so flipping cool.  And just in case you are stuck in a parenting rut and feeling sorry for yourself (it happens) check these out.  I…

So it’s Winter here in Cape Town…  Apparently…  Well, when I wake up in the morning I guess I can believe it, because it’s roughly 4-6 degrees, but on Sunday…
