This afternoon I had my VT’s come to visit and they brought with them 2 little chocolate easter bunnies for the kids.  I told them they wern’t allowed to have them until after dinner.  So while I was making dinner tonight I started having this sneezing fit and started feeling pretty terrible.  It was at [...]

Last Friday we bought the kids electric toothbrushes as they seemed to be getting very lax on brushing teeth.  So Brian suggested a new exciting toothbrush might enthuse them into brushing teeth again.  Over the weekend, he has been in the bathroom with them especially at night, telling them how to brush and helping them.

Well Ashton passed her half grading last night so now she has a green tip on her white belt which is really cool.  You can see a photo of this here .
Usually when anything needs to be repaired in this house the kids automatically say “Oh look mum, this is coming undone, we better take [...]

Jett has been really good of late taking himself off to get dressed ready for school.  I haven’t been checking up on him for ages cause he will finish his breakfast, go off and get dressed and usually will do an alright job.

Well I am glad Tiger Woods has gotten back with his wife, cause it has taken Lara Bingle and Micheal Clarke off the front page of the news.
What is this world coming to when people are dying and all reporters think we care about is some 2 timing (or is that 19 timing) golfer and [...]

Yesterday when we were driving to school Jett said…..  ”Mum, you know Ashton and Dad will die first and we will be left…..”  I asked him what he meant by that and he said  ”Well, Dad is the oldest and Ashton is the oldest so they will die first and we will be left….”
I reminded [...]

So a few weeks after we moved into this house, I slammed my fingers into the back door.  No need to go into details as Brian has done this here and here.  Well today, finally one of my nails feel off.  It looks totally ugly and looks like I have bitten my finger nails down [...]
