The Things We Do

In the happy days when I let them share a bath.  As of 28.3.13 I vow I will never let them do it ever, ever again.  I'm too uptight to deal with splashing, kicking, fighting, pinching, not sharing and general 5:30pm shenanigans.  I'm so over it.  I even wrote all over the bathroom mirror a reminder of my vow. They have sent me to the edge too many times.  Enough!  But isn't this a lovely photo?! (Give me a week and they'll be back in together)

This is how they roll.  It all started during Siley's first 6 months when he screamed for the entire car trip, short or extended.  AB holding his hand often helped him settle or be distracted for a time.  Even now, as soon as they are all clicked in, Siley reaches out his hand to AB for the ride.  It is unspeakably gorgeous.

Barr vs Harris.  The rational and ordered vs the creative and ... non-lineal!

Thanks for helping, Jem.

Kids joining in with M's PT class in Kings Park.  We've started a tradition late in the summer season of having a picnic while M trains.  It's simply divine.  The evenings are still warm and sunny and there is no floor to mop at the end of dinner. 

While AB is at Kindy we have had a little bit of girls fun.  Peppa Pig got pancakes for afternoon tea this day.

This is how many tissues we've used since Siley was born.  Snot, tears and vomit! Jem's trying to blow the tower over.

Sore lips, apparently.

Here's us on one of our daily supermarket visits to do a weekly shop. 

App-reciation Party

 

Carmel has spent a year working on her Rehab Minder App for hand therapy.  It has nearly hit the store but we have already celebrated with App-li-cake-tion cakes and a small shindig for all those people who have helped her get over the finish line. She done good.  We are really proud of her and we reckon Cam would've given this type of entrepreneurial spirit and achievement the thumbs up.

 



Teething March

I got 4 teeth...gnaw, gnaw, gnaw.

I lost my first tooth.  Really lost it.  Woke up in the morning and couldn't find it anywhere.  Probably swallowed but the tooth fairy was full of compassion and left an offering based on undeniable evidence.

I Just Love Him So

There are plenty of times he's not smiling but why would you want to remember those times?
