What else has been happening in our lives???


This is the kids this morning all snug in my bed watching tv. So cute.... Sam is a quick learner he is starting to smile as soon as I pull the camera out got to love that being a scrappaholic LMAO.


Mia and Brie went to their first disco a few weeks ago, it was a halloween theme and they dressed up as witches. Brie just loved every minute of it. Mia was a bit shy and said it was a bit noisy but had a good time mostly. I don't think it was what she expected.

Some scrapping that I did for the newsletter, I think these are the first LO's I have done in what seems like months.

A few weeks ago I wanted to get a few photos of the kids now why is it that 2 will cooperate and 1 wont! Brie was in fine form and wasn't having a bar of it. This is the one photo I got of the 3 of them I still love it though cause she is just so gorgeous LOL. She has a mind of her own and not one bit of bribery works to get her to do something she doesn't want too. Mia on the other hand I could always bribe LOL. She is just well practiced now and poses for me whenever.

So I ended up with some gorgeous photos of Mia and Sam.

Mia enjoying some soccer at Gilgandra a few weeks ago. Last week she got the most improved trophy again which she was pretty happy about. On saturday we go to Cobar for our last game of soccer. I will look forward to my saturday sleep ins again.

Sam in the last week has turned into a rolly polly baby. He loves it, it is really cute to see him trying to get around on the floor. I cann see him getting stronger in his arms everyday so it won't be long and he will be crawling. He is going to be 8 months old next week and I know I say it all the time but I can't believe how quick it is going. He went into his cot on the 1st of september and is slowly getting used to it. He likes to be cuddled to sleep or at least know that your in the room. It is like having Mia all over again, he has the same sleep patterns as her sleep for about 4omins - 1hr about 3 - 4 times a day and she liked sleeping in our bed too. Brie was the best she would sleep for 3 hours straight during the day and all night and would not ever sleep in our bed if she ever woke in the night I would have to rock her back to sleep on the l0unge.

I can't remember if I have mentioned this on here but we have brought a block of land and are going to be building a house on it over the next few years I say over because Salt is building it himself and it is going to take ages. But today we brought out shed to put up and I am a bit excited cause once it is up I can put our house on the market and move into the shed as it is a 21 square she which is heaps bigger than our house we live in now. Not that it will be for living anyway only maybe a 1/3 of it will be made to live in but at least we will have space to store every thing else.
