Three Ring Circus

December 9, 2007

100 days until my blogaversary and it rains down with shiny, bloggy goodness.

Wow. I am truly blessed to be part of this community.

It is so giving and encouraging.

For a socially inept person, like me, someone who is clumsy and not confident in a crowd, getting positive comments and feedback really boosts the morale and does alot for the self esteem.

This week I have been gifted with four awards.

 

The first two are from the amazing Michelle at In The Life Of A Child. Michelle is having a terrible time of it at the moment with illness and trips to the emergency room, so I thank her from the bottom of my heart for thinking of me.

I have to give the friendship award to Trish at My Little Drummer Boys and Tracey at Why Bother because they have always been there for me but I also want to give it to my XBox man. His blog is a great read. It is a threadbare look at a male’s journey into trying to conceive. It is often funny, sometimes heartbreaking but always honest.

I am giving it to Veronica at Sleepless nights even though she has already been awarded this,she’ll just have a double up! I’m going to give it to Kim at Frog Ponds Rock too.

Both Veronica and Kim always find the time to comment on my posts.

The Christmas Spirit award easily goes to Kelley at Magneto Bold Too and to MamaLee at Full Plate.

Note: This award is a little different… It’s actually a flash movie, so click here to get the code so you can post the award on your blog and pass it on.

Thankyou ladies for keeping the season merry and bright!

Speaking of Kelley at Magneto Bold Too.  she has been very busy.

It is a new award that she and her daughter created, called the <3 . You can read all about it here.

If you haven’t been over to Kelley’s blog yet - GO! What are you waiting for? I’m sure she is the only blogger you will ever meet who dresses up like a Ninja for her readers!

I am awarding this to Kate from Picklebums, Karen from Pediascribe, Michelle from In the life of a child, and Jennifer from Playgroups are no place for children  I love all of these blogs for different reasons.

Just tonight I received this award from Veronica at Sleepless Nights.

Veronica is amazing! A wonderful blogger and a brilliant Mummy to her revolution leader baby Amy.

I would like to give this award to Mrs Chicken from Chicken and Cheese. Her posts are a wealth of emotions, another who blogs with her heart on her sleeve and also to Laura at Adventures in Juggling. I love reading about the rich tapestry of her life.

Thank you to all of you. It’s so nice to feel loved!

Here we are at the end of another week! Thanks to Sarcastic Mom, I get to show off some more of my favourite photos. Over the course of the last week, I managed to shoot off over 300 photos and it was hard to pick out only a few…

 

David gave me these gorgeous Birthing Day flowers on Ivy and Noah’s birthday.

 

Ivy and Noah’s birthday cake - Dorothy the Dinosaur. Did I really make that? Noah indulged in his favourite thing on his party day… CHOCOLATE!

We went to a birthday party yesterday for identical twin girls, Chloe and Nicola, who were born a week after Ivy and Noah. We all spent time in the NICU together. Noah loved the sandpit and Ivy loved the plastic beads. My little bling baby. I love her hat. She reminds me of a little vintage dolly.

House humour and a query…

Filed under: Daily life

Heard in the house recently…

2am

wifey to hubby;

W: "Have you seen Ivy’s dummy"? (Searching frantically in and around bed)

H: "Wah"? (half waking from man sleep ie; not waking at all) "It’ll be around somewhere"…

Yeah thanks for that.

5am

Wifey sits up from restless dozing with Ivy, something lumpy growing from her back…

H: Peels thing from wife’s back and cries triumphantly: "I found the dummy"!

W: Sizes up dummy… "I ain’t no princess"!

********************************************************

At breakfast;

H: "Don’t pinch me there, I’m manstruating, you know"!

W: "I am so blogging that"!

Why is it that dogs wait until you have visitors and everything is quiet before they break wind with the most putred post No Frills dog food smell and why do the kids all snigger uncontrolably and then blame the parents?
