Wrestle time with Joshua

In this series of photos is Joshua having a wrestle with Olivia. Poor Olivia was far from impressed.

Meanwhile Jasmine is keeping her distance as she is not keen to be Josh's next victim. If you look closely between the fridge & the wall you can see her feet as she backs herself away into a corner where she thinks she'll be safe.






The second photo is Olivia trying to get away, but no such luck; Josh is persuing her.

The third photo in the series was me breaking them up.

Jasmine on the rocking horse

Just another cute pic that I had to share. This one is Jasmine on our rocking horse. Unfortunately it's not often that she gets to use it as Joshua is terrified of horses for some reason, so 99% of the time the rocking horse is covered in the rumpus room (or sleeping according to the kids)...........That lucky horse. I wish I got that much sleep!

Cute kissing or just plain naughty?

Now isn't this the sort of thing you want to see everyday. Beleive me this was a one off & has been close to two years in the making. Usually its hair pulling & stealing toys, but I got lucky today & managed to steal a pic of Jasmine & Olivia having a kiss.....Oh how sweet!

Never mind that they are being naughty & getting in behind the TV. I think they were tugging at my heart strings for this photo thinking that a nice kiss would prevent me from dragging them out of there.............!!!!

Well, they were wrong, but of course I had to get a photo first.

We've got a bike trailer

In this pic you can see Jasmine & Joshua in our new Croozer 535 bike trailer. Unfortunately it only seats two of them, so the third is usually seated on the back of my bike & there is usually a fight over that.

Keeping helmets on requres bit of effort. It seems we have a choice of three happy toddlers without a helmet or three screaming toddlers with a helmet. 90% of the time toys & food makes for fantastic bribes.

More mealtime mania

OH NO, what have we done!

Firstly we made the mistake of taking them out of their highchairs & now we can't get them back in them.

Secondly, they keep getting out of their chairs & running around at mealtimes........You can see from the pic here that we have had to start tying them down to their seats with stockings.

Thirdly, we gave them a spoon & their own bowl & look at the mess, its just atrocious.

Our maltese, Lily is loving it. For her it means a change from her once a day mealtime, as she is now fed 3 times a day, with her diet consisting of anything the kids eat (or don't eat)

Up to no good

I guess every parent has their 'naughty' photos on file & beleive me we have plenty of them.

I cant leave them alone for a second & I would have another 'naughty' photo if I wanted to.

We have those 'child safe' latches on our kitchen draws & cupboards but the little blighters have worked out that the drawer doesn't need to open all the way for them to drag the entire contents out on to the floor....Arghhh.

Can you see the little biscuit crumbs all over the floor too. We are constantly opening the drawers only to find in addition to cutlery there are often stale biscuits.

Playtime with Cousin Emma

This one is a cracker. I just love the look on Cousin Emma's face as little Jasmine pushes her around the living room. It's all Oh so serious!

The next photo is Jasmine pushing Josh around the living room. Unfortunately Olivia didn't want to come to the party.
