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…

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…

Since Kyla’s first photography experience a while back, we haven’t really given her another opportunity to be the one behind the camera for a change.  But on the weekend she demanded to…

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…

The Burning House – I came across this post on my Sister-In-Law’s blog a while ago (if you don’t already follow this gem, you totally should – she has a…

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…

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…

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…

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 don’t normally get involved in these things.  I see them and I tell myself that I don’t have time, that it’s “lame” or some other random excuse like I…

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…

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…

I’m not going to lie, it’s been a rough couple of weeks.  I am thinking that it must just be preggy hormones going ballistic, but flip.  I am really struggling…

5 and a bit short weeks left until we welcome little Thumper into the world.  That’s if he stays a womb dweller for that long – which I’m hoping he…

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…

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.…

In the last couple of weeks, I have been privileged in being able to help plan Julia’s baby shower with 3 very talented ladies!  Kirsty, Zoe and Julie really know how to…

This is just a quickie in case you want to hear about our family and not only who won the photo shoot competitions. One afternoon last week were were having…

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…
