Winter jammies

Even in Brisbane it gets cold. But we can't actually wear these through the night, Sweetness has already started the "umm its a bit hot maybe asking and pleading to wear these to be like my sisters was a bad idea" re: the open zip (lol). Super cute though.

12th Anniversary

Life is a bit difficult, a bit scary, a bit exciting, a bit anxious. But life is also a LOT happy, a LOT joyfilled, a LOT blessed and a LOT lived in faith. Thank-you God for this man and the amazing life he has helped you create for us.

Guess who is turning two this week

She's such a special girl :)

What a difference a year makes

 

 

I had no idea that one year could make such a difference. What on earth is next year going to bring:)

What fun

None of these are my photos but have been copied off facebook from various people. Lots of fun but I must say I'm looking forward to next year or maybe the year after when the girls are just that bit more grown up. Or maybe not because they may think they are too old for the egg hunt.:)

Just a whinge from a tired mummy

It can really be so exhausting looking after little children and at the moment there is one little munchkin in my life who is tiring me out. To be honest some days she has me close to tears with her enthusiasm for life. She doesn't enjoy stillness which is a little foreign to our family. Ever since Princess and Sweetness were young I have had not too much trouble when taking them out to shops. I could even treat us to a coffee and milkshake but now that little miss loud has come into her own we literally have to run in and out of the shops. Her sisters have had to start shutting there doors just to keep her from making messes in their rooms. It can be quite funny when she is determined to play with them and she just stays outside their room and just yells and bangs on their door until they just let her in or they come out and play. I find it funny as she doesn't just wear me down she is doing it to her sisters too.

I know this is just our season in life at the moment and I know that I will miss having a toddler who has more character in her sleep than some have at their peak but right now it is just a little hard to be out 'in the world' and social.

I'm really going to miss my big girls when school starts again next week, what is little miss loud going to be like without two other people to amuse her:)

Wish me luck, or better still say a prayer for all those mums of young bubs because although I don't think it's the hardest job in the world, I do think on those bad days, it's right up there.
