Bad girls.......

Ok so i did the unthinkable and entered into a scrapping contest..o my!!! now all who know me know that i severely lack confidence in everything that i do......

but nevertheless i entered and can you believe i have made it to the fourth round!!!

i'm still pinching myself to make sure its real! The last couple of mondays have had me a nervous wreck waiting to see who made it to the next round! O my!! the talent out there in this colourful world of ours is just amazing!!!



here are my pages so far.



week one.......


Was all about layering......easy peasy one of my favourite techniques!!

Week two......


Was all about mixing different patterns and using the colours in your photo to create unity

Week three.....


Was all about white space but using it to create unity , balance and harmony

Week four.....

is all about texture, but also using thetechniques of unity, balance and harmony.....

Phew...its been a ride i'm telling you, but seriously think the ride is over this week for me, hand my ticket over i'm about to get kicked off the bus......

But i wont be sad and carry on like some who have been expelled from class. its just been the biggest thrill for me!

Ok its the witching hour in my house and theres yelling and screaming everywhere!

must be time to go and try to tame the wild beasts!

Nearly October...

already. can you believe it??

Life is still crazy here. When will it ever be sane in the next 15 years?? probably never!
Not much other than the ususual has been happening!



Jack is a live wire but coming into that O so funny stage! He starting to say more and more words. its so cute! He calls Kloe 'Oeeee" at the top of his lungs! he loves going outside with her, and if she doesnt take him he stands at our back door rattling on it yelling out her name!! cute but also annoying!! And he calls my dad 'Bop' instead of 'Pop" which is just the absolute cutest and my dad loves it! he is such a happy boy and makes everyone around him happy with his funny antics.Chocolate face!!!Love this photo of him! My current fav!

Flyn is growing like a weed. Already 4 months...where has that time gone?? He lays on his belly already starting to push up. digs his feet in! He so wants to be off with the kids out the back playing! Wont be long and he will be! LOL. He is at long last sleeping through the night, although wakes at 5am and thats morning to him! EEEK!!!!!
We have taken to calling him 'Miley!" have a look at that smile!!! And its on his face all the time!!

OMG how cute is this photo! makes me laugh everytime i see it! He so funny already!
And kloe .....well she never changes just gets bigger now!She has just started School holidays for two weeks, so wil be driving me crazy with....I'm bored, what can we do. Do you have to scrapbook all the time. Stop taking photos of me......You know the drill. Never ending whinging! LOL She is doing really well at school, passed her LAN test with flying colours so that was a big relief! She starts basketball again after the holidays, but as yet we havent heard what days she is playing , who her coach is or anything!!!
My fave photo ofher at the moment!
Her latest self portrait! No idea why she loves taking photos of herself but hates me doing it! She a dag like the rest of them! LOL



Ummm..what else?? o i had a visit from a very crazy lady who drove for 11 hours to see me!! Over the roughest roads in Australia (otherwise known as the birdsville track!) and some of the mostbeautifuliest countryside 9outback SA and the Flinders Ranges!! lucky i love her or i would have had her commited!! She blew two tyres and was stuck on the side of theroad for over an hour, but she got here. it just wasnt long enough time to spend together!





She brought her kids with her and all the kids got on really well! i was worried they wouldnt as


hers as boys and mine is a girl and two babies. but nope all was great!

Jack had to sneak into this photo! LOL he was Corey's little dude!!



And Scott took Matt out fishing and gave him theexperience of a lifetime Spencer Gulf stlye! Feeding wild dolphins by hand!!!

Where do the days go??

Dont ask me because I have no idea!!!

Life is just zooming past at 100kms an hour and I just cant seem to catch up!

i'm trying to get back to work but it is so hard with two young ones. one who is extremely busy all the time, and one who likes lots and lots of attention!!

DH has been really sick with the flu which means i dont really want him to be too close to them, I dont want them sick, and that leaves my mum. Well she is my angel but she is also getting older and I dont expect her to have them all the time. I really dont want to put them both in daycare as then there would be no point in me working, except to be out in the adult world. Money wise it would get all eaten up with fees.

So at the moment i am managing to get back there two days a week, which for the time being is going to have to do.

Just means no extra money for the spoil me things, like scrapping supplies. bugga!!!!

ok enough groaning and moaning.......now to share some photos.

First jacks birthday photos!! Ok so i'm running nearly a month late with them but well you get that!

He so wanted that candle!! o my!!!!



Ok now he is happy he has it!!! LOL he is so cheeky!! boy is he keeping us on our toes now that he is walking everywhere! he has figured out how to open the back sliding door so we have to keep it locked all the time now or he is off out with the dog! You forget how quick toddlers can be!! And I thought he was quick when he crawled!!! o my!!!!



Here are some recent photos of my baby with his big sister! o my he is SO much like her in so many ways its not funny! Its like having Kloe as a baby all over again, although he doesnt scream anywhere near as much as she did!!

But he is so nosey like she was and so 'forward'. he is already holding his head up when laying on his belly and can roll from his back to his side and he isnt two month sold for another two days!

Check out those huge big baby blues!! Just a pity he scored his dad's big ears to go with.....LOL

ok til next time.................

Time Flies..............

when you are having fun!! Or just when you are so damn busy youdont notice the days flying past!


Can you believe that Flyn is one month old today!! Already!! O my!! Wont be long and he will be at school! I'm serious!


And on Thursday Jack will be one!! OMG!!!!


Well at least i wont be able to say anymore...Yep i have two boys under 1...LOL. Look at that cheeky face! OMG he is suh a character! I just love him to bits! He is going to be one very naughty boy who is going to get away with everything because he is just so darn cute and such a charmer!!

His latest thing is to say "O God!" to everything! I have no idea where he got it from as its not something that any of us say....well not that i have realised or noticed. but he says it as clear as anything! His whole vocabulary has expanded so much over the past few weeks. I just love the way you ask him something and he says "yea", but shakes his head NO! LOL. Then laughs like a loon and squeals at the top of his lungs like a sheila!

He has also now learnt how to climb up on the lounge so basically nothing is safe, including the poor cat who used to lay on the back of the lounge in safety...Not anymore!

He is taking lots of steps, but still isnt actually walking as such. About 4 or 5 steps is his limit then he drops to his knees and crawls as its much quicker for him. he likes to get from A to B as quick as he can! No taking the slow and leisurely course with him!


Ok can hear the small one stirring! He will be demanding food within seconds I can tell!

So posting this now before i forget!
But had better include a photo of the Miss as well or she will complain! LOL

Kloe adores her new baby brother and is a fantastic big sister!!
I just love this photo!! it was meant to be of just Flyn but Kloe decided she wanted her mug in it as well and i think it turned out great! I love it! they have the same eyes!
