Tomas graduates from preschool

Posted: 30th November 2012 by Bethany in Events

This is a friend’s photo of The Spot Preschool graduation ceremony that we couldn’t attend (which may have been for the best as we heard it went on until late with kids falling asleep in their chairs!) That is the director ‘big dad’ introducing all the kids. I’ll forever remember Tomas’ first days there when […]

Ethan’s birthday party!

Posted: 4th November 2012 by Bethany in Events

Today we had a breakfast bbq by the beach to celebrate Ethan’s 2nd birthday. There were 6 other kids aside from Tomas and Ethan and we set up t-ball for the kids to play although they just ran around on the grass for the most part. Ethan was so enthrawled with his cake that he […]

Tomas turns 4!

Posted: 15th January 2012 by Bethany in Events

I can hardly believe it. Tomas is 4 years old! And what does he tell me on his birthday but, ” mummy, I want to be 10″. I explain that he won’t be 10 for a long time and that it might be nice to enjoy his time while he’s 4. Tomas at 4 loves: […]

Ethan’s 1st Birthday

Posted: 10th November 2011 by Bethany in Events

I can’t believe how quickly this year has flown by! My little bub is 1 already! We had a small celebration at home on his b-day (the 1st) as his party would have to wait until Tomas recovered from a nasty virus. This past Wednesday we finally threw Ethan the party he deserved! We held […]

Wow, I can’t believe it, my oldest is 3 years old today!! Yesterday, we threw him a party at a park near the beach to celebrate. There were 13 kids (not including Ethan) that ranged from 2 to 7 years old. Because of the wide range of ages, I put together loot bags with water […]

Meme Visits

Posted: 18th December 2010 by Bethany in Events

On November 24th, my mother (affectionately known as Meme) arrived for a 3 week visit. We were thrilled to have family here again and we appreciated the extra help with the kids. Meme adjusted quickly to our early to rise – early to bed routine and our active lifestyle. The kids were thrilled to have […]

Our big boy!

Posted: 11th June 2010 by Bethany in Events

Today, Tomas went pee in the potty twice! And not just sitting down either. Mike has taught him the proper stance. I must say, it’s amazing that the pee makes it into the potty!! The first time he went, he was with daddy at 7am. We celebrated with ice cream – who cares that it’s […]

Happy Birthday Tomas! Can you believe it? Yes, Tomas is 2 years old this January 10, 2010! We threw him a little party by the beach to celebrate. Mike made mini burgers for the kids, and friends brought chips, dip and fruit. My contribution was the cake, and what a cake it was. I was […]

Christmas 2009

For Xmas this year, we attended the carols at Coogee Beach, which was super fun and busy as you can see in these photos! We went with some friends and had a picnic. All in all a great time! Xmas day was pretty quiet this year, just hung in at home for the morning, exchanged […]
