Round Up~ May 2012

On our bookshelf this month....
K- Blood Ninja by Nick Lake, G- Feeding the Hungry Heart and When Food is Love by Geneen Roth M- Horse Stories, a book about a kid with Dyslexia and one about a kid blogger W- was into Guess How Much I Love You and we are reading Noddy as chapter books T- Some sweet stories by Emma Quay and Spot. We also go Mo Willems 'Don't Let The Pigeon Drive the Bus' and Oliver Jeffers 'Stuck' and 'Lost and Found' from the  library these are all great books we will be looking out for more from those authors.
Loving on the box....
Offspring Series 3, Greys Anatomy, Survivor, Master Chef Australia, The Good Wife, Ninja Warrior, and The Mint. Merenia is enjoying series 3 of The Saddle Club. Will is still into Thunderbirds and Mike The Knight, Tama likes dancing to any theme song or jingle going. And Kieran has been watching Friday Night Footy, Saturday Night Footy and Sunday Arvo Footy- That's AFL people AFL!!!!
For you...For me?
With this whole getting paid monthly gig I have already brought most of Tama's Birthday Pressies for next month. But other than that not much in the way of presents this month.

Germs and bugs and botherations....
Tama finally has his MRI. All the boys in the family and me had varying degrees of a sore throat/runny nose/cold & Flu combo. And I scored Mastitis for the third time!!!
Today was good today was fun, tomorrow is another one...

Tama and I joined Teresa in town for lunch. Will, Tama and I went to Aqwa the WA Aquarium. We also went to the Observation platform beside the Airport and spent some time plane spotting before heading to Les' work for lunch where Will got to help inflate a Life raft. We made some cool art with Shaving foam and glue. And then used the pictures to create some more art and a poster about the moon. Both big kids had their State GaT Testing which meant a trip North for me and the little boys with Kieran and a trip south for all except Kieran with Merenia and a bit of exploring out the back of Armadale up to the Canning Dam. Tama and I spent a special day together the day before his MRI. Les and Will had a special day together the day of his MRI. The Space dome visited WGPS and Will especially enjoyed it. Kieran had a trip to Curtain University to learn about Engineering.

Yum, yum, yum....

We seem to be doing heaps more cooking here than ever before: Naan Bread, Apple Pie in an apple, Playdough Jello Cookies, Rainbow Cake and Jam Tarts were in amongst this months efforts. Lamb roast for mothers day.

'It was on sale'....

We completed our set of Noddy Books Via Ebay. Got new Winter Sheets- yum! Started buying the new series 7 Mini figures.

Bugger!

More yuk than bugger Tama found a dead frog under the couch and sucked on it.

Hooray!

Lots of wins at Hockey. My Auntie Louise got married in London! Will got a Values award at school. My sister Caitlin Graduated from the University of Otago.

Etc...

Mother's Day was fairly lame. I pretty much quit paper scrapbooking. I haven't walked since before Easter. GaT Testing for both big kids. One of the Hockey Mums came over to talk about photoshop and book making. We had an interesting time watching the Gas company guys with a big digger next door. I may have developed an addiction to Pinterest.


You know who's good idea this was? Katie The Scrapbook Lady. Go check out her list of tasks to do at the end of each month as well.
