Embracing Crazy

 

I’m wondering if there are various levels of crazy attributed to parents based on the number and age of their kids, or whether its just pot luck and you’re either mildly loco with a hint of whimsy or you get full blown head banging against a wall whilst mumbling something about getting a puppy instead.

I’m definitely leaning towards the head banging against the wall level of crazy.

I’m not sure if my kids are just naturally driven to making me insane or have devised a cunning plan{kinda like Pinkie & the Brain}, either way its working and there seems to be bugger all I can do about it!

It wouldn’t be so bad if my kiddos didn’t look so darn cute!

Their cutie mctutie faces make it impossible to stay mad at them, especially when they give you the pouty doe eyed look, it would be like telling Bambi off or something equally mean!

{I know, I’m a terrible mummy, too easily side-tracked from naughtiness by a cute face}

And forget it if they unleash the “I love you mummy” bomb, only 3 years old and already they know how to win over a girl.

This is another one of those chapters all the parenting books seem to have missed out.

Perhaps I should just embrace the crazy and deal with the cheeky shenanigans my boys get up to, its not as though they can get up to much more mischief than they already have!

Sprinkle Choc Bread

 

Yesterday my babies had their Pre-School jabs, and as lovely as nurse Lucy is, nothing really takes away from having a giant needle jabbed in each arm, not even getting a sticker at the end!

The boys were little cranky pants yesterday, with sore arms and generally feeling a little miffed that mummy and daddy had taken them to get jabbed, again!

Wanting today to be a slightly less stressful day for us all, I decided to start the day with a special treat for the boys breakfast.

{This is NOT something they would have often, it is actually only the 2nd time they’ve had it, but sometimes a mama just has to go all out for her babies}

If you want to make some gather the following

Then simply

{You want to use the pointy thing to press the rounds out of the pastry cutter, using fingers will just get you covered in Nutella and sprinkles}

Pop on a plate and pass to your little darlings, or not, you could always treat yourself!

You can pop two together, like a sandwich, I would show you, but Ahren is hovering protectively over the plate, and as much as he loves his mummy, no one and nothing comes between him and chocolate!

 

My Bad!

 

I kinda feel like I should have a really awesome, amazing, witty and interesting reason for being so quiet lately on this here ol’ blog.

But I don’t,  I just woke up one day feeling like death warmed up in a shed load of pain and thought bugger it, blogging can take a back seat.

Not a hard decision when you’re spending your days either crying in pain or passing out from lack of eating.

I must say it’s been pretty nice getting back to Life Before Blogging also known as LBB, not that I’ve suddenly caught up on all the house work and laundry or started having dinner ready for the hubby

{gah, don’t want hubby getting the wrong idea}

It’s the small things which I didn’t realise had taken a bit of a back seat, I’ve probably read about 40 books.

{I never realised how many books there are about vampires and werewolves, don’t really get them myself but heyho, whatever floats your boat!}

And I started listening to music again, whilst keeping my pledge not to corrupt my delicate ears with the horror and monstrosity that is Justin Bieber

{I want to slap myself just typing that name, again its one of those things I just don’t get!}

Whilst I’m not feeling totally hunky-dory, I’m really getting itchy feet with the need to do something, so yeah, I guess you can expect to see a bit more stuff around here, plus I just have to let you know some of the crazy arse things my boys have been up to lately, total nutters the pair of ‘em!

Sorry if you are waiting for a response or something, I got over 3000 emails!! Most are probably rubbish, but you I’ll do a mass delete and lose something I actually need! I will get back to you super soon!
