Little Red House: Today is my Dad's birthday
http://littleredhouse-jr.blogspot.com/2011/07/today-is-my-dads-birthday.html
Tuesday, July 05, 2011. Today is my Dad's birthday. Today is my Dad's birthday, he is fifty eight today. Except he isn't here to celebrate with us anymore but I like to remember it anyway and will always mention it to my sisters and Ashley when the 5th of July comes around each year. For a long time after he died I was very sad and could hardly talk about it to anybody but now fifteen years later the words come a lot easier but there is still a tear in my eyes as I write this. Journal of family memories.

Little Red House: Our backyard project; where did we end up you ask?
http://littleredhouse-jr.blogspot.com/2011/06/our-backyard-project-where-did-we-end.html
Tuesday, June 28, 2011. Our backyard project; where did we end up you ask? Seriously how fast does time go? Looking back to one of my very first posts. Written in August 2010 I proclaimed that Ash and I were planning a landscaping project to makeover our fairly dull backyard. Almost one year on I thought it might be about time to record exactly where we ended up. I will be the first to admit that perhaps it didn't end up as planned but the completed work is amazing and I am in love with my backyard!

Little Red House: January 2011
http://littleredhouse-jr.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 29, 2011. I love trying to take photos as often as I can and when out and about my iphone is a great way to keep this up. I only just started playing with a new app I downloaded called Hipstamatic. I love, love the way it makes photos look. Here are a few of my favourites. Em at a little beach next to Gosford pool, taken this morning. Friday afternoon piklets in the backyard. Wednesday, January 26, 2011. A big girls sleepover. Josh on the other hand enjoyed some solitude and having excl...

Little Red House: This place where we live
http://littleredhouse-jr.blogspot.com/2011/07/this-place-where-we-live.html
Thursday, July 14, 2011. This place where we live. I love exploring this beautiful place where we live. Finding a new place that makes you wonder "why don't we do things like this every week" and has the kids exclaiming "wow". The last time we explored was last year so yesterday we explored a local nature reserve, Kincumber Mountain. It was freezing and windy but we braved it anyway and the beanies actually stayed on the little heads so it must have been cold. These are the days I want to remember. It is...

Little Red House: The shy girl in the corner?
http://littleredhouse-jr.blogspot.com/2011/07/shy-girl-in-corner.html
Tuesday, July 19, 2011. The shy girl in the corner? It is hard sometimes to be critical of yourself and wonder why you act in a certain way but I think it is important to acknowledge the parts of yourself that you can improve on. Geez, this is a pretty honest post from me but now that I have written it down I am going to work out a strategy to get on with it. Maybe next week I might just get there. Have you ever felt nervous going to meet new people, how did you manage it? July 19, 2011 at 9:18 PM. Welco...

http://littleredhouse-jr.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 26, 2010. Half way to three. Look at that face! Little J is half way to three! This age is so beautiful, I wish I could bottle it up so I never forget what he was like. Love you Little J. Thursday, November 18, 2010. So here goes, we have been. Swapping postcards with other bloggers. Watching the paving contractor make laying this square of paving look super easy. It took him only five hours! Finding new places to play hide and seek in the house. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I love how th...

Little Red House: Backyard Dreaming
http://littleredhouse-jr.blogspot.com/2010/08/backyard-dreaming.html
Friday, August 06, 2010. So here at the Little Red House there is a big project in the planning which I thought you might like to read about. So what are we going to? Paving and pergola big enough to accommodate an 8 seat table and BBQ, drainage, new lawn, sandpit, dwarf fruit trees, new washing line, a kids blackboard, expanded veggie beds and loads new plants to look after and enjoy. That pretty much sums it up, we will see how many of these we are able to achieve before the onset of summer. Welcome to...

Little Red House: April 2011
http://littleredhouse-jr.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 24, 2011. Today you are 2. Today my boy you are 2, for two years you have made life so much more fun, your beautiful sunny yet cheeky nature brightens even the dullest of days. You are very affectionate and love "cuggles" and kisses. This year you have learnt so much; how to feed yourself, walk, talk (we at least a bit), how to get yourself off to sleep unassisted, and so much more. As a little boy you love making noise and crashing things around, not to mention that you love putting on a s...

Little Red House: July 2011
http://littleredhouse-jr.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 26, 2011. Shy girl in the corner - a follow up. Last week I wrote here. That I was feeling tentative towards taking Joshua along to the local playgroup. It was really nice to have friends share their experiences in meeting new people and this helped me to take the plunge today and go along. I thought that there might have been a few more activities for the kids to do like craft, painting or playdough but it didn't really matter as Joshua was having heaps of fun anyway. So all up I hope that...

Little Red House: June 2011
http://littleredhouse-jr.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 30, 2011. Our Little Red House is seven today. I always remember this day, it is a bit like a birthday in our family; the purchase of our first house, as in the. Little Red House that is the namesake of this blog. Today our family fills the house with lots of laughter and fun as Ems and Josh gallivant around playing together with our dog Zorro never too far behind them. We might be starting to grow out of it but for the next few years our Little Red House will be just fine. Almost one year...
