Well, where to begin! Ok, I'll start with the oldest and work my way down

Sami. She is becoming quite the young lady. Turning into a teen right before my very eyes. Every day is a step closer to the dreaded teen years. Talk about attitude! Not all bad, but really, I know what's coming! Help! LOL She still helps with the little ones, so that's a blessing.

Keiraleah. hehehe What doesn't she do! A mile a minute right now, into everything that isn't nailed down. She's talking all the time too. haha I should say 2, 'cause that's the favourite word. Lets see' some of what she says is - wait, there, chair, cat, TV, babies, them, blue and more(the word that is lol). Yep, I'm loving it! Her favourite thing is counting. How good is that!

The twins. Now I've been trying to remind myself not to keep calling them that LOL. So I'll rephrase that. James and Jacquelyn. They are growing, growing, growing! I swear they get bigger by the day. Eating and sleeping like little dream babies, I couldn't ask for better. They have their restless days but I call that a growth spurt LOL Trying to get photos of them with their eyes open but of course every time they keep shutting them!! Not into modelling

Me, well I've been able to get a decent amount of sleep. Mainly as Shane is still here and hasn't gone back to work full time yet. He will be soon though. That's going to put me in the deep end!! Oh, but I keep forgeting. I'm getting a volunteer for one day a week for a few hours. How incredibly lucky is that!!!! An absolute God-send thats for sure!! The lucks going pretty good right now, got my very first car last week!! I was so excited!!! Now all I have to do is learn to drive it LOL  LOL.

Here's some recent clan photos. hehehe

As you can see, Jacquelyn is interested in her hands and James likes to sit back and relax LOL. I think they are going to be spoilt by their big sisters!!

Love to all, and a special howdy hello to Marg. Thanks for asking after the kids.

The R and the M go together , a two word something.

Think parenting.  Think what people look up to.

The C is obvious really.

Look in the comments in the last blog.

And this one LOL

What does it stand for? I will let everyone interested know on wednesday PMSL

First clue- no cats

Second clue- maybe its coz im a bit older.

My little baby isn't a baby any more! Today she said a lot of words. So cute!

Here is a list: bottle, bowl, chair, door, star, whats that?, baby. There's a few more but I can't think of them at the moment! Oh thats right, she counts! 1,2, 4,5,6 hahaha don't know what happened to 3!

Not just that either, She's begining to understand the wee/poo thing. The nappies keep being pulled off! Bit of a worry but it's great to know the potty is on its way YAYYYY. Only two in nappies then!!! Won't that be GREAT!!!

My older girl will soon be 12! Yikes, where did the years go?!! Growing into a horrid teen all to soon. I looked at her this afternoon and realised she's nearly as tall LOL. Does that make me feel short or what!!!!!

Oh and the oldest will be 18 next year, Gosh but that just makes my head spin.

Feeling slightly old........

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

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.

I tried to get around to everyones lounges but unfortunately ran into time constraints and my comp decided to play up as well.

So....Happy Mother's Day to all. I hope everyone is having a great, relaxing and fun day!

Well the child nurse came today to weigh the twins. They are now chubba bubba's!!!! James has put on 380 grams while Jacquelyn put on a whopping 500 !!!!! I could see they were starting to fill out but that was way more than I expected. YAY Now they can start going to the four hourly feeds!!! Thank Heavens!!!!!!!!!! This will give me an extra few hours of sleep YAY!!!!!

We're having an early mother's day tomorrow with the family. My two aunts will be coming as well as my parents.Should be a great day! I'll post some picy after.

Something I've Been Meaning To Say - Thanks to everyone for the compliments. They really do make my day and they are all very much appreciated!

------------------------------------------

I am wishing everyone the very best Mother's Day. Sorry I don't have the time to get around to everyone's lounges. Hoping you all have a FUN day and remember, no cleaning allowed!!!!!!

Jackie and Jamie are settled and happy babies. Very easy babies really. Keiraleah the monster toddler is more of a challenge. That being said, she has been really good with the twins. Not jealous at all, mostly she likes to kiss them. Sami looks after them all like a little mum.

They had their first trip to the shops yesterday and were perfect angels. Not a peep out of either of them.Quite a sight with a double and single pram!!!

Quite a spectacle at the shops!

This one I think Jackie is waving LOL. Sorry i couldnt turn it around.

Shane's mum and brother came for a visit yesterday. It was a 7 hour drive to get here. I get on with both of them, they're really nice people. His mum brought dinner with her. Yummy home cooked roast and bread n butter pudding for desert. As well as chocolate cake!

A total surprise, his mum had bought the twins a double pram!! It was sooo appreciated!! Not only that but a blanket for each and even some pj's for Keiraleah. We were spoilt!!!!

Keiraleah was having a ball, showing off! She loves the attention!! Even Sami wasn't shy for once!!

On the twin front, they are still going great.They are very settled happy babies so that makes it much easier.

I AM MANAGING TO GET SOME SLEEP LOL

They're about to wake up, so I must go....More pics to post later!!

I've worked out that we are now going through 24/30 nappies a day!! We are also making 20 bottles a day!!!  No wonder things feel like an endless cycle 24/7, coz it is !!!!!!!!!!

Just wanted to share LOL
