I think “retainer” sounds gross, doesn’t it? It’s really called a plate, but I say retainer in an American accent just to annoy my family… My middle baby is getting a top plate. I’ve always known he’s had a shocking cross bite. He was about 18 months old and I…

My weekend: kids antics & a hair and make-up workshop…
Hey there Monday morning! How are you all today? Ready to tackle a new week? I am (just!)… How was your weekend? Mine was busy with kid’s sport. We’ve gone from Rugby League to Touch and Cricket… God gave me these boys and now I am suddenly this sports nut.…
The school holidays are ending (happy or sad?)…
I can’t complain. These holidays have been pretty good actually. The weather has been nice and the boys have been kept busy. My eldest is at that age where we wants to “go for a walk” with his older cousins. I get so nervous and find it really hard to…
The special things
2 of my boys were busily drawing last night and yelling out “don’t look, don’t come over here Mum!“. Love them… I think you can tell a lot about the child from how they draw their family. Don’t you? Here are their drawings… This one is from my middle child,…
We had a combined Birthday and Father’s Day
My baby turned 6 yesterday. Cheeky cute little kid. He made up a song about not being 5 any more. He thinks he’s suddenly very grown up now! Look at the cake Amie made! He loved it! Thanks Aunty Aims! He was very lucky. We went to the park for…
Some days I don’t feel like I’m being a good Mum
There are no rules and we shouldn’t feel the pressure, but sometimes I just think I am crap at being a Mother. I just can’t shake off that feeling. I was beating myself up during the week… ♥ They watch too much tv ♥ They play their ipods too much…
Unusual and hidden talents
We all have a talent (so The Universe says). Some of us have discovered them, some of us haven’t. My sister, Amie, discovered hers only 6 weeks ago… We always knew Amie loved to bake, but we never knew she could do this. Heck, she didn’t even know! Amie has…
Our Yarrangobilly Caves Road Trip
…On the weekend we went on a little road trip. I have all boys, so we have to do ‘boy’ stuff! No shopping and morning tea for me ha! I’m not complaining, I love the adventure!Above is a timelapse video of part of our day (it has sound). If it gets…
Shopping at IKEA today. I’m doing it.
I am that clever today because I wrote this post yesterday. Check me out! I hardly ever plan in advance for my little bloggy. But today, when you read this, I will be on my way to Melbourne. I have a few doctor visits today. A few tests, a chat…
What do your kids know about social media?
I have 3 school aged boys and I know the day will come soon when the eldest will start pestering me for an email account and facebook. Luckily, I haven’t had to deal with any of that yet. It frightens me though. It’s probably something I can’t control. I can…
No good can come of this
Fancy sending this home with my kids. What a mean thing to do. Ok, I may have fist pumped and written “YES thank you” on twitter last night. They’ll be gone in a week if they sit at my house. The fights have already started. No good can come of this…
Boys bedrooms – I have 3 of them to decorate!
As my new house kicks off, I have been thinking about the boy’s bedrooms. There are 3 of them for me to decorate (I’ve missed talking about interiors over here on my blog!). I’ve been looking for some inspiration and I can tell you I am feeling flat. I am…
