** Today was a perfect Perth summers day....
** Temps got a little hot at one stage, getting to 34 degrees C. But with perfect blue skies and a light breeze, who could ask for better weather otherwise?! I love it when the sun shines!
** Perfect weather for (as the Australian's say) "Icey poles"... (Ice blocks? Ice lollies?)
** Want to see the (main) reason for my lack of sleep recently?
** Please excuse the worlds worst photo - but that's Abbie finally asleep in her new big bed. We moved her into it a few days after Christmas and it has taken her until the last couple of days to get the hang of it.
- So I wasn't exactly going to muck about trying to get a photo after she FINALLY fell asleep after hours of screaming and getting out of bed.
** I have two words to describe the experience:
Hard.Work!...
** That is enough said. If you ask me sleep deprivation is a slow form of torture!
** Which is making me all the more appreciative of the TV I got for Christmas for our bedroom, to go with the DVD player I got for my birthday. I'm not usually a TV watcher myself (which I'm sure you can guess by how much stuff I make) but at 5.30am when the kids wake up early and won't go back to sleep, after a VERY unsettled night with Abbie, then this is my new best friend...
** Quiet movie time for the kids = roll over and go back to snooze time for Mumma!
** Speaking of being a Mumma... Yesterday I took friends of ours that had just had a new baby dinner, meaning that I could fill up my baby cuddle tank and get all clucky, much to my husband's disgust....
** I should note that I'm not usually a clucky person and never have been. But now that we are done with growing our family, something has changed in me and all of a sudden I love to cuddle babies. What's with that?!
** I think it's making Neil pretty worried LOL!
** Want to see the state of my sewing room?... Still working my way through the endless scrap supply...
** But they look pretty cool once they're cut - here is a little portion of the ones I've cut...
** K I hear fighting, that means it's time to come in from playing outside and put the munchkins to bed...
See ya

Love the photo of the girls tuned out to the world watching telly. Sometimes needs must!
Heh, think you need a nap too after all that ;o)
Loving your organisational skills :-) No wonder you're short of sleep though. Hope you can catch up a bit soon.
Oh, don't worry about sorting/cutting scraps for me. I'll just take the pink bin you have there ;)
Isn't TV fantastic!!
oh dear, it sounds like hard work :-(. Remember things can only get better!! And tv is usually the answer :0
It was just a tad too hot for my liking yesterday!
Sleep deprivation is the worst form of torture...thankfully kids get to the point where they can't gt enough sleep...trust me :)

too funny... as I was reading this I was eating a freezie (ice lolly) for dessert LOL
You look fabulous holding that baby Kat . Maybe you need just one more of your own!
Cant wait to see your blog posts about having to pry your kids OUT of bed with a crowbar when they're teens. They're about as active as sloths from around 14...
