Rough night
As I sit in the Doctors waiting room looking at Yve grinning away like she hasn’t a care in the world. It was a different story less than than 12 hours ago after her last feed of the night.
It was 10.30pm, Goodfellas was 3/4 done and I was burping her after a surprisingly good bottle. She didn’t burp much, but that was normal for this feed. As I placed her in her cot, the shrieking...
Powernap

Finding Underwear in the folding pile.
I remember when it wasn’t hard finding a pair of drawers in the pile of clean clothes. Now 4 kids later, it isn’t that easy.
Back in the day when there was the 2 of us, I used to “accidentally” put on my wife’s panties, but that was it.
After a big day in the garden I had a few settlers and went to jump in the shower. When I came out I knew that I didn’t have...

The "Never to be made again" Cookies
They are not never to be made again because they were hard, or because I burnt myself or the kids, but because we put whatever we wanted in and measured nothing! :D
Sure we had some key ingredients - Butter, Flour, Eggs and Sugar… but the amounts were up to the kids.
Butter… a whole block.
Sugar was up to Jaec and Izaac… Jaec put in 11 scoops of brown sugar, Izaac put in...

Kaine stands.
Jaec administers the wedgie.
“owwww!” Kaine
Jaec turns around.
“My turn, my turn, my turn” Jaec
Kaine administers the wedgie.
“owwwww!” Jaec
“Do me again!” Kaine.
“Boys, stop, where did you learn that fom?” Dad
“Ren and Stimpy” Jaec
Oops, my bad :s

Saving coin with 4 kids.
All clothes will be unisex from now on. If we had four boys it would have been so much cheaper. We actually wear out of clothes. We have shoes that have the soles worn through and pajamas that have the elbows worn through as they have been through 3 children.
Now Yve has thrown a spanner in the works (so selfish). I said to Mel when we were in the last few weeks before she was born, that she...

One day you will stop...
One day you will stop smiling just when you hear my voice
One day you will stop wanting me to kiss you goodnight
One day you will stop wanting to please me in everything you do
One day you will stop wanting me to hug you goodbye
One day you will stop drawing me pictures
One day you will stop looking out for me to pick you up at the end of the day
One day you will stop wanting my approval
