Day 30 - Bathtime goodness

One of her favourite things to do.

ps) while playing with Lil on the bed tonight and giving her 'noodie tummy time' post bath - she rolled over onto her back. About 4 times.  She was celebrated like a star :) So.Very.Exciting.

Day 29 - Family Night

Scooter-ing, biking, walking, berry 'raiding' and smoothies. The perfect activity and treat for Family Home Evening!

Day 28 - Sharing

 

So lovely to watch :)

Day 27 - Saturday Loveliness

 

Day 26 - 3 months

ahhh sigh. I need say nothing more than LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE :)

oh and please stop growing so fast!!!

Day 25 - Out and About

With my babies.....

My most favourite accessories by far :)

Day 24 - Evidence of childhood

 

If the day ever comes that my kids stop leaving their "treasures" around the house, I'm pretty sure I will
miss stumbling across the little evidences of children living in my home.

In fact, I think I will desperately miss it. Especially the smile that spreads across my face when I find things like a dumped toothbrush next to a bitten tomato or teddy bears set up with someone's discarded lunch (clearly they're having a picnic ;).

{Ahh Sigh}This thing called life is moving WAY too fast!!!!

ps} hmmm on second thoughts, I'm pretty sure i'll never miss used undies dumped on the bathroom floor......

Day 23 - Morning Glory II

Day 22 - Changes

Finally I am reacquainted with the gym!! Hooray!! Oh how I have missed it and promise to visit 5 days a week from now until the end of the school year. 

Maybe. 

Definitely.

Hopefully. (can you feel my resolve here???)

(I tried a Zumba class today and was once again reminded that the 'latino moves' are SO not for me.....the 60 year old lady next to me was better at doing the 'bootie shake' than I was.......bahahahahaha. Not pretty I tell you. Not pretty :)

And speaking of fitness, if you want to be part of Australian Women's sporting history, it's not too late to register for the PINK triathlon this weekend. They have 3 different entry levels so pretty much anyone can participate. Trust me, if I can do it 5 months pregnant and finish without dying ANYONE can do it (yes even my 60 year old friend from Zumba could do it ;)

I think you can kinda see my 'Jazzy bump' under my number :)

Day 21 - Favourites

ONE of my {many} favourite quotes from general conference this weekend......

 “We have to forego some good things in order to choose others that are better or best........" 

Simple and Poignant.

So often I find it is the simple words like those above, that touch me the most and inspire in me the desire to change. To be better, try harder and choose that which is BEST. Not just good.

I LOVE that we have the opportunity to watch conference together as a family and for the spirit it brings into our home.

Day 20 - Delicious

I want to eat her!!

Day 18 - Spring

Evidence that warmth is coming

Such a happy sight!!

Day 17 - Rain Rain

I have been trying to convince the boys for-EVER to play in the rain. But to no avail. They'd much rather lock themselves away in their creative world of lego and sing "rain rain go away"....... 

This little lady on the other hand is happy to do whatever I tell her is 'fun'.

And she loved it. The only way I could get her back inside was with promises of a warm bubble bath with Lily.

Next time I think I might have to force the boys to join in :)

Day 16 - After......

2 1/2 hours worth of driving

crazy parking

1 missed flight 

1 new flight booked

1 new flight delayed

4 hours of waiting around at airport with 4 kids in tow and 

1 million dollars spent

.....we finally got Zara on a plane and on her way home.  After all that the boys said they wished she missed the second flight and was stuck in Sydney forever :).

They miss you Aunty Zar. Already!!

Come back soon!!

Day 15 - Home

 2 pairs of big feet in amongst little pairs! Hooray!

Day 14 - Sunday night

'Testimony sharing' by the fire with family.......

One of my favourite things to do.

Day 13 - Six years

We have a six year old in the house........

My babies are growing up WAY too fast!!!

Day 12 - Morning activities

Day 11 - Family dinner

This is how we had family dinner 'together' tonight......I laughed the whole way through it. I think you can see why.  Incase you can't, notice 'larger than life size head' at end of table ;)

Day 10 - Morning sunshine
