Bath time

Well trying to bath all four of you is no small task. When we have time it's boys then girls. But on nights like tonight when we are running late, little people are grumpy and we just need it done fast.  It becomes a production line. All in the shower with mum, while dad does the drying.  The first time Flynn and Harry weren't sure, but tonight they loved it, little legs kicking, enjoying watching the water fall. I managed to get a quick snap of all of you freshly showered and hair washed, snuggled up on the coach.  Some of my favorite cuddles are when your all nice and clean and ready for bed, so we can chat about our day and what's happening tomorrow. Memories to be made

Australia day

Today is the boys first Australia Day. I woke to everyone in our bed, except Flynn. Who was laying chatting to himself in the boys cot next to my side of the bed. He was such a good boy and had only woken once in the night. We are starting to call him sleepy Saurus. Harry loves his cuddles so slept the night next to me. We really should start and get them sleeping in their own cots and room. I am just hanging on till the last minute, as that's it for babies in our room and that makes me a little sad.
We tried getting photos of the kids with my Australian flag. Trying to get 4 smiling is hard work. Ryan and the girls went to the pool, while I enjoyed a quick nap and cuddles with the boys.
While I was baking in the kitchen today, Georgia was helping me and teaching me how to pull funny faces. She is such a beautiful girl and her blonde curls tend to get her out of trouble.  She is really.struggling with her emotions and can very quickly get extremely frustrated, we are working on calming her and getting her to talk nicely and use her words, which seems to be working slowly.
While I'm lying here writing this, I have just finished feeding Harry and he is lying in my arms, all snuggled up in his sleeping bag smelling of talcum powder and baby, chatting away to me through his dummy.
I love all of our children equally, but right now I am so in love with these boys and can not believe we have been blessed with identical twin boys.
We really are very lucky and especially lto be able to bring our children up in a small town in Australia. 

Birthday parties and early to bed

So I finally got my sewing machine out last night after 6 months of her hiding under piles on my desk. It was Charlottes 4th birthday party today and since I had made a little promise to myself to give handmade gifts this year. Emily and I decided to make her a doll with some mermaid fabric.  I loved creating again, apart from family, sewing is definitely my happy place.  It was so nice to have Emily so interested, the other 3 were sleeping so it was just us. Me sewing, her watching and chattering away. My girl is growing so quickly.
Today was her party and she loved it. I went with just the girls, feeling totally lost without Flynn and Harry to tend to. They had daddy time.
Kids had a ball and wore themselves out. My favorite part of today has been, being able to snuggle each one of our beautiful children  to sleep, individually and soak them up, hold hands, run my hands through their hair, listen to them tell me all about there day. Our babies are growing too fast for my liking, days are passing in a blur..
