A three year old shouldn’t have to remind herself that she’s nice or that she’s good because other people are telling her otherwise A three year old shouldn’t start panicking in the morning over whether she has two lunch boxes or a lunch box and a smaller container for snacks becaue someone has been giving [...]

Things to Love

So I guess we can all agree that yesterday was bad and a big pity party on my part and we can just move on and pretend it never happened? I’m going to pretend that you all agree with me. The problem with hormones is once you get sad, they take you over the cliff [...]

When It All Goes To Hell, Just Remember . . .

Thumbnail image for When It All Goes To Hell, Just Remember . . .

I’m having a day. For no particular reason. It’s what I refer to as a F.I.N.E. day {fucked up, insecure, neurotic and emotional} There’s no reason for it. The baby helps, I’m stocking up on those big, bold smiles today, but still I’m having a F.I.N.E. day. Occasionally it happens. It all goes to hell. [...]

A Little Bit of Busy

This week is a big week. I’m busily working behind the scenes for the launch of the new site on the 12th and I’m a wee bit overwhelmed. It’s always those last little details that are actually a whole lot more involved than you originally planned for. Or maybe that’s just me. So I’ll be [...]

Things That Make Me Mad

Thumbnail image for Things That Make Me Mad

* clearly this photo does not make me mad. I tend not to take photos of things that make me mad. But it is a photo of a ‘good’ baby. Which definitely makes me mad. It makes sense if you watch the vlog. Sort of. This topic idea came from Miss Pink of the Mummy [...]

Vlog: Blogopolis or Nervopolis?

Not content to blog about my awkwardness, I am now in possession of my very own t-shirt. Which might indicate that I have too much time on my hands or that I am a truly gifted procrastinator. Either way it will be on display in Melbourne. Cold or no cold, I will freeze for my [...]

Raised by Fairies

There aren’t a whole lot of photos of me with Riley or with Piper. There are a few here and there of course. And there aren’t that many with Josh either. Let’s just say we are both afflicted with a heavy case of dear-god-i-look-awful-in-photos thing. So in most of the photos, the kidlets are on [...]

Teeth. The Other Arch Nemesis.

Teeth. The Other Arch Nemesis.

Look at that smile. Blissfully unaware of the lifetime of oral health issues before her. I’m hoping that she has Josh’s teeth and not mine. In fact, I hope that both her and Riley are on the receiving end of his genetics in that department. Most things I’m pretty calm and rational about, on a [...]

Escape to the Aussie Bloggers Conference

Escape to the Aussie Bloggers Conference

I am leaving my beautiful baby in the doting hands of her father for the next few days and heading into Sydney for the Aussie Bloggers Conference. I will miss her terribly. I will miss cuddles and kisses and non-stop chatterboxing and random protestations of undying love. But, I will equally enjoy wandering around the [...]

The Mama Guilt

The Mama Guilt

6:00am Nothing more likely to make me feel like a royal shithead for going away for three days and two nights like having a poor sick munchkin on my hands this morning. Vomiting at 3am. Which initially I thought was just an upset tummy, but more vomiting at around 5:30am says gastro. So now we’re [...]
