The last time we went to the beach Riya was freaking out about the sand in her toes.  And the water.  And the dogs.  And the sun.  And the…  Well…

So a while back there was this big special day that we celebrated but I was kind of busy at the time so I didn’t blog about it.  But I…

Just before the holidays ended we decided to spend a Saturday morning at Giraffe House with special friends, relishing in the little bit of time that we had left together to…

It’s amazing how you can go to the same place over and over but each time you find something new to experience. We ventured out to Imhoff Farm for some…

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…

When the girls, Knox and I are home together all day on Friday’s I have been struggling to manage my time to be with them when I don’t have to…

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…

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,…

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 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…

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”…

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…

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…
