Woohoo. Back on track with the last three days. Note to self – do each day as it comes. SO SO SO much easier!
Day TWENTY-ONE -
Another family day, recovering from the big birthday the day before! My Mackenzinator is a character!

DAY TWENTY-THREE -
I LOVE my husband. My rugged early man hunter gather husband. (even if he did proudly gift me a marble cheese grater for Christmas!)

Happiest of birthdays to my Wilbur.
We packed a picnic (actually – I packed a gorgeous picnic) and headed to Healeseville Sanctuary for a fun day out. Will and I hadn’t been there for many years, and the girls not at all (oh – except Madison who went on an excursion a few months ago). I highly recommend it. So quiet, even during school holidays. Plenty of room – lots to see. The birds of prey show was fabulous! We spent five hours wondering around at our slow pace, and that included a stop for lunch and another to sing Happy Birthday with the somewhat dodgy (but deceptively delicious) sponge cake.
Have a look at that spread – mmmmm.(we have no idea who the other people are!(Milla is Wilburs new shadow. She HAS to be wherever he is. It is gorgeous to watch. It also means she only want him to change her nappy. I am not complaining.Happy Birthday Wilbur! Not sure if the girls are more excited about the fact that I bought them each a mini can of lemonade (a VERY rare treat), or that there is a big wonky looking sponge cake to eat!Milla got stuck straight in. No holding her back. Much like her father.Happy family.
Spunky daddy, and cool daughter!
*sigh*
The ‘just about to get into the car for a long drive home’ obligatory fruit snack.

Sponge cakes. Preparing for day twenty. notice how i photographed them from the top, so you can’t actually tell that they are flat unsponge-like discs!

DAY SIXTEEN -
We changed it up today and met some friends at a different beach! Point Leo is lovely – totally different to our beaches though! The girls enjoyed a bit of rockpool rambling, and I relished in the chance to talk to another adult! Always a bonus!
DAY SEVENTEEN-
Ahh – day seventeen. I can’t remember a thing about it. I only took one photo, which gives me more reason to believe that this should be ‘more than a photo per day’! (or maybe I should be more diligent at posting each photo actually on the day it was taken….) Once again – blurry. Blurry shows movement. Milla NEVER. STOPS. MOVING. PERFECT shot.
DAY EIGHTEEN -
Another day kicking around at home. These two photos melt my heart for a couple of reasons.
1. I love how Murphy is ‘helping’ Milla sunscreen herself.
2. I love Milla poking out her little tummy.
3. It makes me happy to see Wilbur there in the thick of things – planning his assault on his shed building, whilst watching the girls splash about.
4. everything.

I am not a big believer in the whole Friday the 13th doodad stuff, but by golly I was a cranky pants today. The sky was even cranky. Madison had her last Nippers session (phew – we made it through that!), and I got progressively crankier. Things improved as the day wore on. Phew. Daddy came home. Always a good thing!
DAY FOURTEEN -
Today was a good day. Just a whole heap of chilling out with Daddy. Today nearly requires a post to itself – it’s a biggie!
Santa was lovely enough to give Murphy a kite for Christmas. Pity about the wind. It reached the most lofty heights when Wilbur jumped in the air and threw it upwards! Note to self – need more wind!
The girls were busy just being cool!
Oh looky here – there’s us! We don’t often feature. Soak it up! Look at that spunky husband of mine!
I love this photo of Murph for some many reasons – I realsie it is blurry – blah blah blah. Who cares. Have a look at the fun she is having. LOVE that photo of Madison. She is starting to lose some of her ‘scardeycatness’ when it comes to doing things – and swinging is no exception!
Hmmmm. My little Milla LOVES “beawi’s”. She will do anything to get into them. Those little fingers are quick to open a punnet, and then even quicker to get them in her mouth. I am forever finding little strawberry hulls all over the place!
Oh my gosh. That’s right. I lost an hour and a half tonight, and I will never get it back. We took the girls and met up with another family, to the Drive-In and saw ALVIN AND THE CHIPMUNKS – CHIPWRECKED. DO NOT go and see it. (actually – if you have little people – do go and see it – just use the time to have a nap and close your eyes, so you don’t feel like gouging them out. Little people will love it.) The chipmunks were cool 30-40 years ago – now they are a pain in the neck.
DAY FIFTEEN -
We hit the carnival tonight. I am not a big carnival fan – so much money going down the drain. Wilbur and the girls (Madison had her gorgeous friend Miss R for a sleepover – so 5 girls in total) had fun. Madison had been badgering us to take her on the CHA-CHA since the carnival had opened. On she went with Daddy. The ride ended abruptly when it started going super fast, and Madisons little face went from excitement to terror with the blink of an eye!Check out Lady Muck in the middle giving everyone the royal wave!
