Mmm you know those moments when you find your toddler has done something naughty, but unfortunately at that moment they also happen to look so cute doing it you just can’t tell them off and you actually have to stifen laughter? Well Sunday was like that for me, Flynn decided in his toddler wisdom that he did not want to have a nap at all on this day. He usually sleeps for up to 3 1/2 hours so this was highly unusual for him. The first time I went in there he had completely trashed his room-
You know when they just don’t want to have their photo taken? Well we tried to get a few nice photos for Fathers day over the weekend but Flynn was just not in the mood. Oh well, there is always tomorrow!! Loving the daisies though-they are such a great back drop !!
I have tried various “systems” throughout the years to control and organize the daily papers that need to be actioned in our household. I am yet to find a system that works at home, but I am waiting to conquer that once we have redone our office in December. But for the stuff you need to carry around with you I have come up with a system that I thought I would share that has been working for our family.
I am not sure about the rest of you but one of the things I find the hardest with kids papers for schools/daycare/kindy/sport/gym etc is getting it from filled out of the bench to the actual correct location stage- without it getting lost or ruined. This may be different for you and your family bit this is the part I struggle with. So when I found these cute file folders a few weeks ago I thought these would work a treat!!
So I have 3 folders running at the moment- (this will most likely increase with each child)
Remember my post a few weeks ago about that field behind our house? Well about 3 days after I took that photo all of the flowers started popping open!!! (I am so glad I snapped that shot when I did) Nothing says spring like a field full of these gorgeous things

When I find great downloads I love to share them with everyone, so this one is so exception as I think it’s great. It is a designed for a scrapbooker but can be adapted for anyone who loves taking photos. There are 2 lists (have you caught on yet that I LOVE lists !!) one is a list of 10 Can’t miss photo opportunities for each month of the year and the other is a blank photo checklist for you to fill in yourself.
To my wonderful husband Simon, the father of our child Flynn- we hope you have a fabulous day getting spoilt and waited on all day : ) You are a great dad and continue to grow in strength to strength every year and Flynn just adores you !
I did a big breakfast this morning for a few of Simon’s friends-
I did this layout last weekend from the photos of our swimming fun at the pool. It is the first time I have done a 2 page layout and also used a sketch it was great fun and I am happy with the result so I might start to do a few more of these this weekend. It is a great sketch to use when you have heaps of photos and want to include them all of the one layout. I may need to do something similar for our Tulip park photos as I have HEAPS of them as well!! …READ MORE
