I swam at the same swimming school Nixon now screams and yells at once a week, and they have had the same logo and swim bag the entire time. I am 36 years old! Good things stand the test of time I guess lol Follow
Daily Look | At the End of the Path
Some days you just have to put on your overalls and go riding in the rain. Or Mama will go cray-cray. He won’t melt, he’s warm and so so happy, plus the potential for puddles is all a bit too exciting! It’s hard to remember to say yes and think outside the box but when we do it can be …
Thou shalt not judge my parenting on Mondays
Nix turns two in 2 months and he’s all about the tantrums. All. The. Time. I can deal with this just fine, however, a grande mal paddy sometimes causes a bit of a time crunch when you are trying to leave the house by 9.30am. God that sounded like eons of time once in my life – getting on your way …

Daily Look | Winter is Coming
I snapped this photo four days ago. Just looking at it makes me shiver under my woollen jumper, full length tights, fuzzy socks and nana blanket. Dave has started prepping a section of our yard for a wee makeover. It’s going to require a digger and a roller and lots of dirt, mud and rocks. If Nixon had any idea …
Hello Nixon | 20 Months “BUBBY-do”
These are the days you wait for. I also have a feeling these are the days you miss the most when they are gone. My faithful sidekick, with me every minute of the day, screaming “BUBBY-do!!” at every turn, at every milestone throughout the day – laundry, meal time, bed making, dog walking, potato peeling, unloading the dishwasher……..son, your domestic …
Sandpit Rage
So one day toward the end of winter last year, I had this freaking genius idea to turn a corner garden surrounded on two sides by concrete into an in-ground sandpit. Bordered by railway sleepers, complete with driftwood and spendy, smooth river rocks, over-flowing with just the BEST sandpit toys {or whatever dregs I found in the tupperware drawer}…….are you …
Turning a corner | Weaning my toddler
Nix has always hated the car. Vehemently. Road trips are a knife edge experience of gritted teeth as we wait for him to lose the plot and turn on his air raid sirens. Child is L O U D. He has been this way since birth, and looking back I wonder if his body position in the capsule and …
Toddler Swimming Lessons | The Great Equaliser
In true second child fashion, Nixon began swimming lessons last week at the ‘advanced’ age of 19 months. Ethan on the other hand, had his swimming debut at 3 months and has never stopped – 10 years of swimming $!$ Dave and I were in complete agreement that the need was not there to subject ourselves Nix to hours upon …
