School holidays just got a whole lot harder.
Filed in Daily life, pre teen angst, toddlers, July 9, 2008, 10:02 amDoes anyone else find the Winter school holidays hard?
It’s cold.
It’s a stay inside kind of season.
Traditionally we do the kinds of things that keep us warm and dry.
Movies.
Bowling.
Cooking.
Craft.
Today we wanted to do something, get out of the house.
Anyone who has been reading for a year, might remember when we attempted the movies last year. It […]
Questions & Fodder…
Filed in Daily life, Ewwwww!, children, family, toddlers, too cute, too funny, March 17, 2008, 11:55 amNoah and Immy were playing together and things were not going the way Noah thought they should…
Immy: “No, don’t do that Noah, that hurts Immy.”
Noah: ” No”
Immy: “I won’t play with you if you are going to do that”.
Noah: (increasingly angrier) “NO”!
Immy: “Oh well, I will just have to…”
Noah (interjecting and pointing to Immy) : […]
Bedtime antics.

I put them to bed. I snuggle them down. Noah has Ted and Ivy’s arms cling tightly around BokBok, boa also in hand.
They are so not ready to settle but I sit with them anyhow, willing them to go to sleep.
As twins they have the right, it seems, to suddenly start a banter […]

My Parents in Law came up to visit yesterday and made me feel as though I was a partially competent parent.
My children were all ecstatic to be spending time with them.
We had a roast lamb ( with gluten free gravy).
Ivy had her first (almost) solid poo since…well, I don’t remember really… September 07, I […]
‘Trying to make light of a stressful situation’ or ‘What’s worse than 1 toddler on prednisone’?
Filed in Health, illness, I hate prednisone club, Male slandering, Sleep deprivation, crazy mummy moments, doctor related posts, toddlers, February 4, 2008, 12:32 pmWhat’s worse than one toddler on prednisone?
Two toddlers on prednisone, of course!
That’s right. You know that little cold that Ivy aquired at the paddle pool? Well, Noah got it too and it became an asthma attack that needed prednisone. Yesterday was day three and the ‘roid rage was in full swing… or should I say […]
Better, and yet?
Filed in Health, illness, crazy mummy moments, doctor related posts, toddlers, worry, January 23, 2008, 10:39 pmI don’t know where to start.
We went to the paed today.
There. That wasn’t so bad. A start.
The paed was lovely, kind, caring. I seriously couldn’t fault him today. He even charmed Maddy, who had come with me to help.
Noah is fantastic. Growing well. Chest is good, the Singulair is working. He is developing well. You […]
That’s what I am…
Filed in Daily life, toddlers, too cute, December 22, 2007, 3:42 pmEarly this morning, I was lying on the lounge having a snuggle with Noah. He has been feeling a little left out of late. A sweet moment between mother and son.
Until Ivy came storming into the room and smacked Noah square on the head…
“Ge orff, No - No”, she screeched, trying to pull Noah from […]
