When Mummy hides the Playstation

 

Jai looks like this

(Mummy felt very mean)

 

When Fatboy wears the rainbow babylegs

 

his chubby lil legs are adorable.

(Mummy is addicted to babylegs)

When Rani has a friend over

they get up to all sorts of mischief!

(Mummy is going slightly crazy)

Short post tonight, am writing this while holding my eyelids open with my fingers ( well, not really but i am tired)

I am giving away tim tams and vegemite very soon, and hopefully making an announcement very soon :)

Not Me Monday

Courtesy of MckMama

I have not been trying to convince Jai he is really too little to play the PS2. I did not think I was succeeding quite successfully.I did not wake up last night to find him at midnight, (after mum and dad were asleep)playing the playstation! He did not have a screaming tantrum when I turned it off, and he was not asleep in 2 minutes. I have not hidden the Playstation.He is not still asleep now.

We have not gone from pet-sitting a dog, to pet-sitting a snake. My hubby does not have a snake phobia. He has not been asking me at least four times a day “Are you sure the snake is in its tank? Are you sure? I don't see it!”

Fatboy is not becoming a little parrot. He did not bring me the biscuit I gave him for a snack, and tell me “Its gross” He did not proceed to put it in the bin, and tell me several more times “Muhm,its gross” I was not slightly hurt ( I did not make said biscuits)

I have not bought several more pairs of babylegs to torture you with pictures put on Fatboy. They should not be here this week, I am not waiting impatiently.

I did not watch the New Moon trailer and immediately start reading the books again. I did not read when I woke up at midnight, and did not wake at 4am on the lounge with New Moon about halfway through.

School holidays have not started, I do not love school holidays now more than I did when I was a kid.

Dakota and Rani are not chasing each other around in their pyjamas as I write this, and Fatboy is not behind them trying to catch up.Cara is not already at a sleepover. She did not wash up, peel potatoes and hang the towels on the line so I would let her!

I am not writing another Word of The Day, due to the fact that no one else uses fortnight ( its 2 weeks, I had no idea we created that haha)and working on my question and answer post. I am not ecstatic that I have more than 1 question to answer:)

I am not planning another Tim tam giveaway, and I will not include Vegemite! You will not have to keep reading!I do not use too many exclamation marks!!

I am not planning to spend most of today reading blogs.

Nope, not me!

Just call me a pet sitter.

Remember how we looked after Bailey, my brothers dog?

 

Well, he went home, and now we are looking after my sisters pet.

Meet Tashi. The Carpet Python. Secured in her tank in the garage. (hubby HATES snakes-every time summer rolls around,he gets all snake-paranoid whenever we go outside. I didn't tell him the neighbour told me they have had 3 extremely poisonous brown snakes in their yard)

Fatboy  was intrigued

and not scared at all. Expect more photos soon:)   (oh, like that HUGE bruise? that's what you get when you swing between the lounge and coffee table. That bruise is almost permanent, he always hits it again just as its going away. i swear he has had that bruise for 3 months)

So, new header picture! You like?I took 32 photos, that was the absolute best. (Im still not happy with it) Wanna see some outtakes? 

I would like to do a question and answer post soon! So, do you want to ask me anything? I know I've been asked about my camera, I've got that in there!  If you do have a question, just write it in the comments and Ill answer! ( and can at least 1 person ask something, just so I dont feel like a total loser,hehe)

Which is why this post is late:)

10 ( totally honest) things about me!

1. I hate cats. Im sorry but its the kitty litter tray. We have had many cats, and I always think ‘why did we get another cat? I hate cats!’ (dont worry, all are neutered and given to good homes, except for the last one who disappeared off the face of the earth while we were moving)

2. I am in the middle of major in-law dramas

3.I hate driving! Even after 2 years,  still feel like Im just gritting my teeth until I can stop driving!

4.I don't mow. Look, the way I see it, I do many, many things. Mowing is  one thing I will always think of as a mans job, therefore, I'm not doing it! I have mowed, once, in an effort to bring on labour (Dakota, it didn't work)

5. I love to read true crime. Sick , but I'm  fascinated! I always say if there is ever a death in our family they are going to look at my bookcase and go “ This woman is a definite suspect”

6. I am possibly ( hope and pray) nurturing a tiny secret:)

7. I love junk food. Since we moved out here, whenever we go into town (usually once a week to shop) I HAVE to have McDonalds ( do you call it Maccas too?) . Love my double cheeseburgers, and I justify it by the fact that my husband works at the abattoir that makes the burger patties. hehehe

8. I would LOVE to be a photographer, but am TERRIFIED about upcoming (1st) job. Like, panic attack terrified,

9. I am completely obsessive about the house being clean AT ALL TIMES!! Only because, have you noticed you always get visitors when the house is a tip? Once Jais godfather was coming down from Cairns and my sister wanted to surprise me. Hubby said they had to tell me because “ She will kill you if she doesnt have at least 2 days to clean” (actual quote lol)

10. My wardrobe is limited. Seriously. I do not care about clothes at all. I own one pair of shoes ( I did own 2 but the dog chewed the other pair up)

Since I am finishing this late already, ill pass this on over the weekend:) Watch this space!

 

10 things I love about Hubby

1.He always kisses me goodbye when he goes to work (at 5am) Even if we are not speaking, he kisses me goodbye.

2. When he gets home in the afternoon he always looks for Fatboy and says “give us a hug”

3. He goes to work at a horrible job just so i can stay home with the babies. And he has stuck it out for 10 years!

4. He treats all the kids equally , never preferring the boys to the girls ( you should have seen him at Cara’s netball final last year!!)

5. He is super fertile …………………..sorry

6. He will hold Fatboy on the ride on mower the WHOLE time he mows the HUGE yard. EVERY time!Oh and he understands my ‘no mow’ policy

7.Sometimes ( rarely but sometimes) I get flowers for no reason:) More often, I get a slurpee, which is just as good in my opinion

8.He still thinks Im beautiful despite the sag, and bear claw scars (stretchmarks)

9.He still remembers the moment we met

10. He has made me feel like I belong, from the minute we fell in love. ( Im making myself slightly ill)
