This is the first Weekly Winners for 2009.

Check out Sarcastic Mom’s blog for more participants.

We’ve been lying low at home this week because Ivy has not been feeling the best but on New Years Day the kids jumped in the pool and the little twins had some water fun too.

The following day a storm blew in.

They’re both a little scared of the high winds.

We went inside but not before I discovered they had consumed a tube of toothpaste (is there gluten in toothpaste?) and opened a packet of make up sponges.

They declared them cheese.

Ivy sorting the different cheeses. Clearly that child has a sorting obsession.

They had a picnic on the stairs before the rain came.

Sorting is such a functional behavior - useful in so many ways. They are SO DARN CUTE!

Sorting leads to organising, she’s clearly a homemaker in training.
“Checking her reflection” is the sweetest photo.

Aww such sweet pics! I love seeing the little ones sorting - Zack LOVES it, has done for as long as I can remember. :)

No one in this household is a ’sorter’ except me. I’ll trade you one non-sorting husband, girl child or boy child for your girl child that does sort! Does she sort laundry? If she does, I’ll take her and won’t even make you trade for one of my many ‘non-sorters’! :-)

I love, love, love those hats!

Lip glossing Gran looks like serious business!

I love all the moments in time you capture Tiff. I look forward to this each and every week.

Oh the water play looks like so much fun :)

I didnt realise till I saw last weeks winners that you have gluten and lactose intolerant people in your home - so do we - the whole family except my dad!!!

I can see your kids have grown. That’s the best part of this thing we do together. Watching our beautiful children grow and blossom.

Love all of them!

Oh the stories I can tell about a sorting obsession (and a lining things up obsession, and a penguin obsession). :)
Great shots!

Grandmas are fun! Hope your weather has been better than ours lately.
Melting in the 38+ heat, I’m hearing 42 for tomorrow. Must find a nice shopping centre to hide out in.

Well, of COURSE it’s cheese!

Sorting is a sign of genius.

I love these pics… I need to see summery things right now as it’s freezing cold and snowy.
