Firstly, thank you for all of the birthday wishes! The twins had a great day eating their beloved chippies for lunch and sushi train for dinner. We did a little cake at home, normally I would make it but I have been flat out so I cheated. Retro Daddy is keeping miss tillie’s hands away from […]

This girl makes me laugh….honestly she does. Today we had to go back to the dentist so they could ‘paint’ two of her back teeth which have some deep ridges and might attract cavities in the future. Anything preventative is worth it in my books. I was a little nervous how miss keira would go […]

Plus I have bigger things to worry about like my 2 hour glucose test tomorrow (because I had high blood sugars […]

Yes, people, they are all my children. And yes I am pregnant with number 4. And no I’m not brave or crazy, I’m actually very lucky. Do you want to listen to my whole infertility story and know that this baby is a little miracle that required no drugs or doctors visits to get inside my tummy. Or […]

In the last week or so, this pregnancy has really been catching up on me. At home we are calling it the fastest pregnancy on record as it is flying by. But now the 14kgs I have gained (did I just say that!) is slowing me down. I pretty much count down the hours till […]
