Random

I liked Janine's idea of doing a post of random photos from her phone. I downloaded these photos off my Nokia just in time when it gave up the ghost a year ago. I don't really use my phone to take photos unless I don't have my camera around or if the battery dies unexpectedly and the quality isn't ever that good either. I did, however, have a wonderful stroll down memory lane when I stumbled across the forgotten directory of photos the other day. So I thought why not do a random post to display them. I won't go into detail about each one I'll just keep them in date sequence. Incidentally if anyone has a second hand i-phone that they want to sell, or any other old phone for that matter, please let me know!

Heatwave

On the news they call it a heatwave. We just call it summer. I don't think I've seen a weather forcast this bright since April. We've had a solid week of blue skies and sunshine with temperatures in the upper twenties. What a pleasure before autumn sets in for real - starting tomorrow!

TGIF

It's been a long time since I've been so glad that it's Friday. When Nicholas declared 'Yay Yay it's Friday!' it made me realise that weekends are already very important to him too. Last Friday when we fetched him from school everyone was in high spirits as, not only had the weekend begun, but the sun was shining. Before I knew it the boys had taken their shoes off and were getting up some monkey tricks and donkey kicks on the lawn outside the church. I was really impressed with both of their skills!

Funny

I don't particularly like the sound of my own voice on a video but this is all about the kids so I'm going to publish this combination of clips I took of Daniel discovering a male doll. We don't have any dolls at home so it was all new to him. To me the funny part is that he thought the doll was Dad!

This clip was taken of Nicholas when he was 2 years old and we were on holiday in Cape Town. I can't believe that not so long ago my big little boy was so small and so cute. Coincidentally he was almost exactly the same age that Daniel is now. If you feel like a laugh keep your eye on the background. I know you aren't meant to laugh at other people but sometimes you just can't resist it!
