28.02.2012 - 07h04 - Feeling good

My lovely, dear, sweet, wonderful friend Kerryn gave me the night off last night so I got a full nights sleep (except for a wrong number which woke me up at 12am!!! grrrrr). I even managed to pamper myself a bit last night with a facial and hair treatment so this morning I'm feeling great. I feel so good I'm even wearing heels today!!!!

19.02.2013 - 13h07 - My life right now

My world has consisted of nappies, bottles, night feeds, cuddles, keeping my 12 year old happy, working, homework and starting today soccer club...

I haven't posted in ages and these are the few pics I found on my phone just to prove I haven't dropped off the face of the earth...

This is Tyren's silent laugh face when you shower his face in kisses! :)

Getting bigger and chubbier each and every day

In the bouncy chair Jen gave him - it's my savior in the morning

My parents, Tyren and I drove out into the country for a late lunch on Sunday. Just what I needed!

I have a new appreciation for food that does not come frozen in a container!

Ethan's soccer club starts today so we rushed off and got him a brand new pair of soccer boots -

he's already a size 8!!

06.02.2013 - 13h02 - I'm back :)

I haven't been blogging because my life for the past week has been one of the hardest, scariest, busiest, craziest weeks of my life.

I am not too sure what I can write about but want to say something...

Wednesday last week I offered to go and fetch my nephew Tyren for the day as my sister was in no state to look after him. He has happily been living with me for a week now.

The past 7 days have consisted of social workers (3 thus far), children's court and the police station. I have totally been thrust out of my comfort zone but feel stronger for it. I can honestly say this has been a life changing week.

As soon as things clear I will go into much more detail.

But I do need to say that I have been overwhelmed by people's love and generosity. We have a pram, camp cot, car seat, nappy bag, clothes, bottles, wet wipes without having to spend a cent. Not only have people been generous with their money but with their time too - there have been numerous babysitting offers!!

All I can say is THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU - I would not have made it through this week without the support of my family and friends.
