Me and My Family

Hi, I am a busy mum like the name suggests! (aren't we all!) I have 5 kids- 17,12,15months and new born twins. My partner, Shane is very supportive, so I count myself very lucky indeed. Not much time for anything else at the moment, nappies and bottles rule the household. All my spare time is for Minti LOL. Life is crazy hectic, but that's the way I like it!!!! When I do have time, I like to read, do jigsaw puzzles and watch movies.

Just a little about the kids....Annabelle is very creative and a bundle of energy but doesn't live at home now. Samantha is obsessed with music, Keiraleah is very energetic, loves music and dancing all day. Jacquelyn is very alert while her brother James is more laid back.

We also have Bon Bon the cat and Cheeky the parrot.

Beyond Excited!!!!!! :p

Comment Published at 23:4823:4813 comments13 comments16 Visits16 VisitsReport

My first car EVER!!!!!! I'm beyond excited, I really can't believe it!!!!

I't's a Mazda MPV. 8 seater of course! hehehe. Now I'm not mechanically minded, so I won't go into details about the motor ect. As long as it goes hehehe I've got no clue about all that stuff. It has power steering and windows, and its an auto.  Oh, and its white!

Shane has to go pick it up some time this week coming.The sooner the better but probably on wednesday.It'll be the first day in a while I've had all the kids by myself. I hope he's not gone to long but he has to go up the coast to his brothers to get it and drive it home.

Now I had better get my finger out and get my P's. LOL yeah, I've only got my L's so far. Luckily I can have heaps of lessons with my dad. He only lives 10 minutes away. Shane too, when he's not working.

Ican't believe they want me to clock up 120 hours! Abit much. If I wasn't so lazy I could of had my lisence by now with only 50 hours or better yet could have done it when it was the old way  (OMG) back in the 80's or 90's when it was much easier still.

I feel like my luck has changed lately. The kids have all been good, mother's day I was spoilt rotten(brekkie, chocs, sleep),got to meet the wonderful Cass and Austin and went gold as well. The car on top of all this!!

All I need now is a magical cleaning genie!!!! lol

I met Cass today!

Living on the central coast, I was lucky enough to have Cass stop by on her travels. I can't say enough good things about her. She was really lovely. Austin is sooooo adorable! Keiraleah loved having a playmate! They got on well which was good. Sami looked after both of them so we had time for a coffee and a chat. We took some photos of course lol.

Thanks Cass for taking the time out to drop by my place and say hi. It was a pleasure meeting you!

This is Keiraleah, me, Cass and Austin.

Sami(who doesn't like her photo taken) keiraleah and Austin. The kids all had a good time too.

This will give me an extra few hours of sleep YAY!!!!!
