Stills: A Weekly Collection


One - I picked up my knitting for the first time in eighteen months. Yes, basic stitches...very much a novice. I will probably stick to scarves for the rest of my knitting life - anything else scares the pa-tooty out of me.

Two - I bought my first ever pair of boots!

Three - Don't be thinking only toddlers break out the pots and pans! Till and Harry fired up the kitchen band yesterday.

Four/Five* - The clothes drying/sorting room aka our loungeroom! It has looked like this for days. We just can't seem to get our washing under control.

Six - They shared a creme brulee.....poo poo to ice-cream and topping. My kids have expensive, sophisticated taste (bugger).

Seven - The kitchen was a disaster (it was one of those days).  We arrived home from school and Till insisted on washing up! It must have been the look of total despair on my face.

*When Ben saw photo No 4 he said "what's that"? and I said "Lie under the clothes horse and look up"...gee, dur!!

Our lounge room also doubles as a laundry. Great clothesline picture. So lovely. All your photos are lovely - that's why I've nominated you for a Leibster blogging award - to share the love around... http://lilybettandboy.blogspot.com.au/2013/06/leibster-award-giving-and-receiving.html

Hi Michelle,

Gorgeous photos... what a lovely little life you seem to have and such beautiful children. All Matildas are super in my book. Thanks for stopping by my new little blog. I MUST crack out the knitting and get the hang of it, total novice myself. Maybe we'll have somthing wearable by next winter!
