Ramblings....

Gosh I love finding things on the internet! Seriously. I could sit here all night, kids in bed, coffee my my side, tv flickering in the background searching for things I'm not sure I want till I see them.

Look at this lovely chore chart for instance:

Head on over to draw! pilgrim to print out your own FREE copy! Yay!

And sticking with my slightly green imaged theme, gosh I wish I could find these shoes in my size - lovely green Keds wedges. These size 10's are available on ebay at the moment.

And just a wee side story - why is it always the way that when you have no money you find lovely new clothes to buy? I headed out sans smalls this morning for errands and came across mountains of things I could have bought given an endless supply of cash! Grrrr, to Sussan for not letting me layby the lovely dress on sale in your shop! The husband has me on a tight budget at the moment as I have been lucky enough to be driving a brand spanking new car - a beautiful black Chrysler Grand Voyager! So, while I have no lovely dress or the above perfect shoes to match, I am driving a swish new car with loads of buttons and leather!

Wishing and dreaming...

Please. Will someone come and look after my three smalls so I can go to this? Oh, and if you could spare me a $1 or $3 so I could buy nice things that would be great too. Cheers, Sonia

Point and Shoot: Jemima's granny rug

Sunday night, October 3rd, 2010

Jemima is modelling my first attempt at a crochet granny square rug, the height of comfort and fashion for Play School toys at the moment! Yay for me! Dont look too close as it's pretty raw but it's a perfect size for Jemima and her friends. She didn't really need it last night as it had been a beautiful, warm, sunny Melbourne day and our house stayed nice and toasty all night. Lucky I left it with her though, as she had to pull it over her eyes several times during Offspring when Nina started to get a bit naughty with her sister's ex-boufriend and then the man she really loves who has decided to forget about his missing wife showed up to declare his undying love for her whilst she was still in an intimate state!

Want to join in Point and Shoot? Just head over here.

Just call me nanna...

Apparently this is what happens when you actually follow directions! I am becoming a granny square queen! Yay! So, I admit, that some of them are a little untidy but I dont think my daughter's baby dolls will care too much.

Do you want to try your hand at granny squares? Head over to Pip for wonderful directions.

Oh dear....

Is this not the saddest wee attempt at a granny square that you ever did see? I am really not sure what went wrong. I have been following Pip's wonderful directions and video - and trust me when I say that the dodgy workmanship is all my responsibility. Anyone got any tips for me? Where on earth did I go wrong?

And so it begins...

I have a wee man turning 4 next month. He is sooooo excited he can barely wait. Lately if anyone annoys him he strikes them off his party list he's creating in his own head. I caught him going through his kinder photo giving them yes's, no's and maybe's! He struck one little boy off because apparently he throws sand!!!

I am sure he's not the only little man currently obsessed with Toy Story so this has become his party theme - a Buzz Party: come dressed as your favourite character! We did his party invites last night and have found these - hello, free toy story fonts!!! Small things like this make me far toooooo excited!

Addicted...

Anyone else loving Aussie tv at the moment. Spirited on Foxtel, and Offspring and Rush on Channel 10?! I cant get enough of them. I have a wee girl crush on Claudia Karvan. Don't you? Ooh, and I think I'm needing Asher Keddie's hair too. And I think Callan Mulvey can park his slippers under my bed anyday... if only my husband would shift out of his way!

You can head over here to watch full episodes of Offspring - especially that lovely kiss and they way he tells her she's remarkable! Lovely.

I think it might be the uniform?!
