Sometimes I get lost in/on the internet. And I’m not only talking about the times that I wake up with a weird leg pain and after a bit of self…

Apparently a picture speaks a thousand words. I’ve never really put it to the test, but I often stare at a picture and have what seems like a hundred different…

The kids rooms have been looking rather dull since we’ve moved house (Especially poor old Knox’s room, but that’s for a whole different post). For the girls room, we managed…

Flip, our poor dogs. In case you were wondering about adding a pet to your life, let me give you a little heads up – DON’T!  I mean I love…

Please don’t put me in a mommy box. Right now you’re thinking, “what are you even talking about?!”  But you’ve totally heard of these boxes, you just don’t realise that…

I’ve been trying to think of cool little posts about the kids or something more interesting, but actually, when a big change is made in life, it has a tendency…

A brand new year calls for a brand new series.  And not the kind that you sit back and watch on TV – it’s the kind that you will make…

It’s Seth’s birthday soon (like on the 5th of Feb soon!) and I have been wracking my brain on what to do for him. Party details aside, what you have…

We officially have no more babies in our house. I’m simultaneously ecstatic and miserable about this.  Weird hey?  I guess it’s because I know that he is the last baby…

Sunday mornings aren’t really the time to talk about work.  Although if you really think about it, there is never really a good time to talk about work is there?…

So the start of the new school year happened yesterday. Just thought I’d tell you in case you weren’t on any form of social media yesterday or maybe you just…

Another tattoo has been added to my little collection. I guess it’s a bit like Pringles, in that once you start you can’t stop. But seriously, I’m sitting here with…

Man oh man, I didn’t think it was possible to be sick of braaing, but let me tell you, it totally is. Last week alone 6 out of 7 dinner…

Scenario: It’s dark in my room, my bleary, tired eyes manage to make out the light that is fighting to make it’s way through the curtains – so I know…

Yo yo yo. I wasn’t really planning on doing a review of the year, but after reading so many of my favourite bloggers reviews, it made me feel a bit…

My exciting news this week is that I have gotten my 4th baby back from the hospital.  That’s right, my camera is back from it’s service and I don’t think…

Oh hello there. I’m going to take a break from current regular program (of giveaways everyday) and share loads of photos of a super cool Minnie and Mickey Mouse party…

THIS COMPETITION IS CLOSED In this glorious Summer weather, there really is nothing better than having our girls in dresses.  Not only are they cooler, but they just look so…

OK…  Are you ready? Stretch your arms out wide, then wrap them around yourself and give your body a little squeeze. Weird?  Maybe, but that is my little virtual way…

A couple of Saturday’s ago – when it was really rainy and wet in Cape Town, I bundled my kids up into the car and we set out for the…

We got Christmassy all up in our hizzle this weekend and it was glorious. I decided to heck with it, we feel like putting up the tree now so we’re…
