Just thought I’d show you a little of the fun things that have been filling our days. Here is what we did yesterday- dress ups. So all we did was cut out the shapes from poster paper, which is always handy to have around, draw on them and then stick them to our clothes with [...]
We have some friends, some lovely friends, really lovely friends who gave the kids a gift when ‘the little one’ was born. It was two matchbox cars with a little stopwatch. Such a thoughtful gift, truly lovely. Well Wrigglebot ripped open the packet pressed all of the buttons on the stopwatch then forget about it [...]
Wrigglebot has discovered a Big Bird puppet that used to be Husband’s. I thought he would just play with it for an hour or so and then be over it. Not to be. Not only did he insist that I have it on my hand the entire day, he would talk to Big Bird, read [...]
Okay by now most of you know that I am not the most domestic person in the world and this is why. The other day my floors got to the point that I just couldn’t ignore them anymore. Wrigglebot had brought so much sand inside that when you walked your feet crunched and you dare [...]
Husband and I both like to consider ourselves creative and so we were naturally excited for the time when Wrigglebot’s imagination would be unleashed and it has finally happened. He stands on the arm of the chair surfing and then a wave comes and knocks him over and then he needs to take his surfboard [...]
Sometimes it seems like we get so busy with other people and work and just stuff that we don’t get time just with our little family. Well, we had a family outing. Husband had just finished a big job so the late nights and weekend work was over (until the next one) so we gathered [...]

Last night I got dressed up (wore that little black dress that I have had no occasion to wear post baby), left Wrigglebot with his grandmother and went to see Miss Saigon. It is always an interesting experience seeing live theatre and I have seen most of the big musicals; Phantom, Les Miserables etc. I [...]
Soon I will have my first Mother’s Day. I tried to claim last Mother’s Day as I was six months pregnant but to no avail, it didn’t earn me present and pampering status. This Mother’s Day should be good, Mr Wrigglebot is still too young to present me with paintings and toilet roll holders and [...]
How great are long weekends? (Definately a rhetorical question because the answer is so obvious) (sorry that is the English teacher coming out in me.) We had beautiful weather and so it seemed like the perfect time to get some of those outside jobs done. We are doing a play area for Mr. Wrigglebot, it [...]
