Why do babies wait until you’ve put a fresh, clean nappy on them before they do the foulest, sloppiest poo known to man?
My babies have worked out how to hold it in. I know this because I have tried waiting it out for their morning defication. I’ve tried waiting until the nappy is almost falling off […]

I see this alot on some of the blogs I frequent;
Ass Hat.
What is an ass hat?
Can some one tell me?
Is it a bonnet worn by a donkey? Is it some sort of outer wear that you place over your backside? Literally a beanie for you bum?
Can someone please explain.

Ivy had a hearing test today and passed. That’s the good news.
When the audiologist checked her ears out she found:
Grommet out on the right side and rip roaring otitis media. (Her ear drum perforated on the way home).
Grommet in on the left side but discharging again.
Poor baby.
The paed is missing, presumed dead.

* Sorry, rant ahead*.
It’s November people, November!
Warm weather, hot actually. So why is Ivy still sick? Why, a mere 36 hours after stopping the antibiotics, is her nose running green and her chest sounding like the old rattling carriage of my school train? Why is her temperature high? Why, Why, Why?
Can anyone tell me?
Can anyone […]

Lily has gone on school camp for three days. It’s her first time to camp and her first time away from us for any length of time. It was bad enough when the big kids went away to Canberra but Lily is on her own. There are no twin sisters or cousins to keep an eye […]

It is an award that was started by Chrissy at Chrissy’s This and That to honour wonderful women and was inspired by a post that her husband wrote about her.

What’s a girl to do?
When you are a shoe hound, like Ivy is and you are going on an excursion out into the front yard and you have just too many shoes to choose from.
You wear one sandal (to show off your toes) and one gumboot (to splash through all the puddles)!
Of course.
See […]

He likes to run and play with cars.
He likes to be outside. He rarely plays with stuffed toys, except for ‘Ted’.
He is two this month. (Both Noah and Ted).
Of all our children, he is […]

I was reading an interesting post by Dr Rob the other day. He was speculating the possibility of doctors and patients being friends and, in that context, disclosing information when having a particularly bad day. He wondered why patient’s asked how he was and attempted to probe into his life outside of his practice. He […]

Before I throw you into Ivy and Noah’s birth, I thought it would be good to give you a bit of history as to how we got to this point. To understand how I was feeling, I guess you need to know William’s story.
Read it if you like but basically;

Imogen and Madeline […]
