kurrabi kid: December 2011
http://kurrabikid.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 9, 2011. Don't you love some of the things kids come out with while you're driving? I want to remember this one:. Scene: way home from school. E: "Mum, did you know some kids don't believe in Santa? E: "Yeah, they don't think he's real . is Santa real, Mum? E: "The kids who don't think Santa's real, when they wake up and see their presents, they know that God brought them.". Me: "Mmmm-hmmm" [stifling giggle]. I love how this little guy thinks! Friday, December 09, 2011. The kids had a ba...

kurrabi kid: September 2012
http://kurrabikid.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 11, 2012. So, this delightful little lady turned THREE at the start of this month. And I must say, I will miss her 'two-ness'. She wasn't a tricky two-year-old at all. Perhaps she's saving that up for her year of being three? I wish I had the headspace or inclination to write a long, loving post about her gorgeousness. But I don't right now. Another day. Maybe? Happy 3rd birthday T! Tuesday, September 11, 2012. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). WINTER 2016 JULY. I'VE DONE IT.

kurrabi kid: January 2012
http://kurrabikid.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 27, 2012. Where are the words? Certainly not here, on this poor, cobwebbed blog. And they're not in my diary either - I think the last time pen touched paper on those pages was new year's eve (and I don't think I even finished that entry). The words are also missing from, er, Word. Yes, those plans I had for writing a short story have come to very little indeed. You know what is frustrating? The words, they are all in my head! Anyway. I will get there. (Sigh). Meanwhile, E is killing me s...

kurrabi kid: February 2013
http://kurrabikid.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 12, 2013. So, it's happened. We've cruised passed February 9 and that makes me . FORTY! I've been doing a bit of navel gazing in the lead-up to The Big Day - doesn't everyone? And a bit of wrestling with the idea of entering a new decade. I can't think of one. Hard work at times, for sure, but I have to pinch myself when I think of how much more enriched my life is now than it was when I turned 30. Goodbye the Golden Years of the 30s (sniff) - you were AWESOME. They are the most beautif...

kurrabi kid: Last year - July to December
http://kurrabikid.blogspot.com/2013/01/last-year-july-to-december.html
Saturday, January 19, 2013. Last year - July to December. OK, where was I in my dodgy 'the year in captions' recap? My biggest turned seven. My littlest decided she needed piggytails. TT takes a ferry. Backyard soccer was played. Thea turned 3. Here she is doing one of her favourite things: collecting rocks. We took the kids camping, which was all fun and games until someone - not mentioning any names - cried all night because he hated being constricted in his sleeping bag! In the Snowy Mountains. And I ...

kurrabi kid: June 2012
http://kurrabikid.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 24, 2012. Some days just sparkle, don't they? Today was one of those days. Beautiful weather always helps create a sparkly day. Add happy, well-behaved kids to the mix and I reckon you're about there! We didn't really go anywhere too far today. I was supposed to do a 5K fun run, but snot and a head cold got in the way. I didn't feel much like running. There was lovely news this week that there had been seals (! Sighted (twice) in our river. Seals! Sunday, June 24, 2012.

Bumparella: October 2013
http://bumparella.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Running for the Fertility Express on Route IVF to Babysville. And making it. October 8, 2013. I hadn't planned to do anything special for my birthday this year. After all, forty-five isn't a 'big' year ending in a zero and, unlike Jack who celebrated the big double-figure milestone this year, I have been in double figures for quite awhile now. Forty Freaking. Five. Quick, pass the champagne. Let's turn it into a birthday week! The thing is, when I think of that number (let's say it again shall we? I pray...

Bumparella: A Luau Party
http://bumparella.blogspot.com/2013/12/a-luau-party.html
Running for the Fertility Express on Route IVF to Babysville. And making it. December 13, 2013. Last weekend we channeled our inner hula-hula and threw a luau for Francesca's third birthday party. We hadn't held a party for her before because, well, who wants to throw a party where the guest of honour is likely to face plant in the cake (one year olds) or snatch things out of the hands of party guests shouting "MINE", leaving a trail of wailing toddlers and distraught parents in their wake (two year olds).
