1st sleepover

Lucy had her first sleepover last night at Aunty Katie's, apart from broken sleep she had a great time, thanks Aunty Kt xx

Early morning random antics

Harry woke up this morning at 7am, troddled into our bedroom, climbed up onto our bed an put one of his hats on my head, then one on Andrews, then troddled back to his room and hopped back into bed!
He is one funny boy that most certainly marches to the beat of his own drum!

My perfect trifecta xx

How grown up is she???

Funny saying

Harry has the funnies saying at the moment. When he is trying to convince me of something instead of saying "for real Mum!" which is what Holly says, he says;
"It's for my real life mum!"
It's very cute as he says it with such conviction!

When your tired....

Yesterday while Holly and I were at a party, Andrew was home with Harry and Lulu. Harry hurt himself, so Andrew picked him up and put him on the bench. Luce then started screaming so he left Harry, got Lucy only to find him like this 2 minutes later!!! He stayed like this, out like a light for s good 20 minutes, when I came home and transferred him to the couch - he didn't even flinch!6

Please put down your toast before reading.

I have been meaning to document this moment for a week. Not so much for the memory of it, but more so, so I can remember to bring it up on their 21st's.

Last Sunday we had a very lazy day. We all stayed in our Jammies most of the day until we went to Billy and 'Nets' for an early dinner.
Just before we left Harry was on our toilet and he called out as there was no toilet paper left, I got in there and cleaned him up and sent him out. 5 minutes later I realized Lucy wasn't in sight, I went to our bedroom and found her in the ensuite chewing on an empty toilet roll. I scooped her up and transferred her to the playroom. A few minutes later I could smell poo? I couldn't quite figure out where it was coming from. I started with Lucy, thinking she needed changing. She stank of poo, but not her nappy? I then realized she had been crawling in the bathroom!!! I scrubbed her clean, revolted by the fact she somehow had poo on her.
After she was all changed and clean, I was still baffled as to how she smelt like poo? I then walked back to our ensuite picked up that empty toilet roll only to find it covered in chunks of POO!!!! Putting 2 and 2 together, I quickly realized My darling Harry had resourcefully wiped his Bum with the toilet roll before calling me.

I swear I did not sign up for this shit when I had kids ... Literally!

Funnies

I was putting Harry to bed last night and while we were chatting I said to him;
Harry, you are going to be a seriously amazing man when you grow up.
To which he replied;
When I am a man, I'm going to be on Masterchef, do you know why?
Why? I asked
So I can make chocolate ... AND EAT IT ALL!!!!!!

I had a laugh, after he was asleep I was telling Andrew about the conversation, he laughed because he and Holly had just had a similar discussion .....

Andrew: Holly, I am SO proud of you.
Holly: for Jack in the beanstalk? (school production)
Andrew: no baby, just for being you!
Holly: (with out missing a best) Well who else would I be?????

We both had a good laugh. I just love how our kids think xx

A quick escape

Yesterday after a lovely catch up with the cousins in the botanical gardens, we had a mini holiday in the city. We checked into a suite at the Stamford Plaza, after a rest we trained it into the Melbourne Show. We stayed for the fireworks. The kids had fun and it was a nice little getaway in our own city.
