Things To Ponder

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…

A couple of days ago we trekked all the way out to the Northern Suburbs to capture our tiny little Knox in a newborn photoshoot with Veronique Mills.  I had…

Thumper is finally here and yes, he finally has a real name that can be revealed!  Welcome to our family little Knox (or more affectionately by the girls as “Knock”).…

By this time tomorrow I would have checked into the hospital (6am) and will hopefully be well on our way to holding the precious cargo that this belly has been…

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…

OK.  I know that this is technically a stupid question, because eventually I WILL go into labour somehow, but what do I do when it actually happens?! This week I…

This week I have had the privilege of being at home with my munchkins under the guise of “maternity leave” – because let’s face it…  Toddlers just don’t get that…

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”…

A couple of months ago we finally decided on Thumper’s real name.  A couple of weeks after that, the girls started to refer to him by his name and now…

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…

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…

There are so many things you just can’t do when you are pregnant and I often sit and remise about the “good old days” where I had free reign over…

Now that I have finally been able to go through the girls old baby clothes, find all the “boy friendly” items and pack them into his cupboard, I realised that…

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…
