Keep on keeping on...........

Hello again

A nice photo of Greg and I

We are just plodding along as per usual in our very crazy busy world, trying to have fun at the same time.

It's been hot, cold, rainy and windy.  I got a yukky head cold and had to have two days off work.  Felt quite off, but on the mend now.

I had lunch with a lovely friend and coffee with a few others.  How good is that!!

I went through the boys clothes and am giving people two bags full of clothes for their kids.  Our boys are getting big now and all the baby stuff had to go.

I got the twins vaccinated.  That was fun - NOT.  No, it was fine - they were really good and nothing a jelly bean and the promise of McDonald's chippies couldn't fix.  Thanks to Daddy for coming to help.

I have been very naughty and haven't been walking.  I need to start because I can feel the weight creeping back up eeeek!

We had a nice dinner for my brother in law's 50th birthday.  He then came over and stayed on his actual birthday.  It was fun.

I worked ALL DAY on the school cake stall at the Fete.  Had a ball and we sold every single item for the school.  I made a lot of Minion Fudge.  We sold it all which was great.

I had a Multiple Birth meeting and got home just shy of 12am!!!  Lots to talk about and good company.  I was very tired the next day.

We had a lovely home visit from our Geneticist.  I really am an X-woman with my genes that have mutated in a way that the genetics people have NEVER seen before.  Special enough that they are going to write a paper on us and present it in the USA.  I passed it to my kids so we are all X-Men.  

I always knew I was a one of a kind mutant........  come and get me Wolverine  :-)

Got to love a bit of Hugh Jackman eh.

Have a great couple of weeks xxx

 

Finding my groove

It has taken a while, but I think once a fortnight blogging is probably the maximum I can do at the moment - it's all about finding my groove.  Ideally, I would like to update once a week.......... that will be what I will aim for.

We have been on school holidays here and Michael went to vacation care when I worked.  Playgroup on Wednesday was still was on so we all went along to that.  We had to stay at home to be here for my home help to come around on Thursdays and Fridays I spent catching up on paperwork and running madly around getting "stuff done".

I also caught up with an old friend who I hadn't seen for quite a while.  This was a lovely brunch catch up.  She supported me significantly when I was going through the awful time last year.  Thank goodness for really good friends.

Borrowed from a blog I follow.  So glad I'm not fake - what you see is what you get!

Last weekend, we had a lovely day at Bobbin Head.  Next time we hope to hire a paddle boat.

Doing the superhero moves

I had a farewell for a friend and made up some yummy treats.  Very sad to see her move away but we will be able to keep in touch via Facebook thank goodness.

Home made sausage rolls

Chocolate mousse and cream

It has been hot, hot, HOT here this long weekend.  Here is a very yummy and healthy smoothie I made for my breakfast.  Delish!

Blueberries, banana, grape, yoghurt, oat, ice and skim milk smoothie

I am VERY excited that my daughter Alex and her partner Ben are coming to Sydney for Christmas this year.  I haven't seen her since last Christmas when I went up to Darwin to see her.  We are having Christmas at our place this year so it will be wonderful for her to be here.  Ben hasn't met any of us (only Mum and I) so it will be lovely for him to meet us crazy bunch.

Love these two kids so much xxxx

A relaxing weekend for us this long weekend.  It was too hot to do anything significant.  I went through the boys clothes and have two bags full for family.  I have gotten all the summer clothes ready for the twins this summer.  Yay.

Have a lovely week/fortnight...........<3
