Chocolate Fest


How come these holidays zoom on by?? The girls had a great Easter, and had plenty of chocolate (in fact they still have plenty of chocolate!!) Molly had a great time, unwrapping her cousins chocolate bunnies and trying to disappear with them! Monkey.
She's been watching blues clues (we have about 3 videos and a DVD, but chooses to watch the same video over and over) lately, and has been coming out with words - she's now saying HI, which is really clear, Steve, blue, clue - so cute, and she does this little dance to the mailbox song! So, as annoying as it is, that she watches the same one over and over, she's really benefiting from it, so I'll suck it up and let her do it!
She's also learnt some sign language from a lanuage group we go to - so thats something I want to expand on!! oops, can hear the freezer door, someones getting the ice-cream out! I'm sure she'd almost live on ice-cream if she could! Phew, I won that battle and she's settled on toast.
Holidays, yay! I want to strip an old chest of drawers and a bookcase over these holidays and repaint them for Molly's room, the scotch chest she has is slowly falling to pieces, and we're having such wonderful weather! Hard to believe!

The photo makes Molly look like she's angry, but she's actually got a mouthful of easter egg! Can't wait to scrap that lot of pictures, and I took some yesterday of her making her own sandwich, the look on her face is priceless (must get a digimax card!)

GroundHog Day!

Do days just blend into one for everyone? Or do I need to snap out of this and get a life!? (lol). I just feel I'm living the same day over and over, get up, morning routines, school run, come home, washing, make beds, empty dishwasher, clean, lux, pick up toys, tell the bird and/or dog to be quiet - it's just the same old stuff!! Can I just say, thank goodness for Sundays and Carol!! We went scrapping on Sunday, and we're off again this Sunday - but the thing is, my mojo has gone - was talking with the others there, and we were talking about it - it's different from Scrappers block - you can't pick a magazine up or browse galleries - it's like I have a complete inablity to scrap - like I have no clue what I'm doing (hehe, not that I do most of the time) There have been times we're I've thought I'm kidding myself and should just sell the lot on TradeMe!! I'd really like to be able to scrap again!
Girls are fine, Molly's on a Blues Clues drive, so that's what we're watching, over and over! T'Keyah is back at school, playing rippa-rugby and miniball is going to start up soon - Marching season is over for now, so that's a little less taxi-ing about.
No kindy today, and no plans to go anywhere, I might get off here, do some housework and scrap for the afternoon (cross fingers I get something done!)
