Summer!

Image
I've been seeing all these photos of snow everywhere courtesy of Facebook and Instagram. Can I say I'm kind of jealous at the moment? I always loved summer, the consistency of long, hot, sunny days just made me happy. But as I get older it starts to wear a bit thin when it's ridiculously hot.  According to the news, our summer hasn't been too hot (although it feels like it has been), and we've had a few milder days and colder nights in the last week or so which was awesome. We have had 15 days over 35 celcius (95F), in January, and I know there were a few in December and November too. But today is another one, and according to forecasts we are set for a record breaking heat wave over the next week. It's supposed to get up to 42c (110F), and not go below 39 celcius (103), for at least the next week possibly longer. I got a text message from the girls' high school earlier today advising about the extreme weather for next week which I've never had bef...

2013, A Look Back

Image
Today is a stay at home do nothing kind of day - I don't even plan on getting out of my pj's. And so as I sit here and reflect on the past year it occurs to me that it has been pretty full on! So I thought I'd do a post on what happened, month by month. So much can change in 12 months, it's interesting to look back and remember things.....I wonder what 2014 will bring? January ...saw as it always does, Miss Emily's birthday and mine as well as a big cross country move! On the way Penelope gave us quite the scare before we knew she was Penelope that is, and proved to us that she really is destined to be a superhero!   My Dad and The Awesome One packing our shipping container for the move Driving across the Nullarbor Plain on the way to Western Australia February came and we found out that our Little Lord Nibbler was actually going to be Little Lady Nibbler! The kids started school for the year, The Awesome One set up my art studio and I star...

How to: Baby Sleep Sack (for next to nothing!)

Image
Penelope loves her sleeping bags, or sacks or whatever you'd like to call them. I love them because it means that in the really hot weather she can wear just a nappy and her sleeping bag and I know in the middle of the night when it cools off a little, she won't get chilly but rather will still have that light layer on.  It will also mean in the cold weather she'll have that extra layer on so that when she kicks off her blanket, she again won't wake up cold! But they are expensive! Ranging from between $30 at the cheapest end on sale, to well over $100 they make for an expensive blanket/bodysuit! And considering the Little Miss is somewhat of a chucker (read, spews milk on a more than frequent basis) they really can't be worn two nights in a row without a wash in between.  I don't wash her clothes everyday so ...... We had three sleep sacks and we were managing although I was saying I needed a couple more. Then we lost one. Don't ask. Something to do wi...
