• Being Thankful
  

  My eyes have really been opened lately to how much we have to be thankful for. I’ve also noticed how much we all complain about silly little things. Its really been bothering me! So I’ve decided that in every situation I’m going to look for things to be thankful for. I’m sure I’ll be tested [...]

• A post about sleep
  

  All of us parents do it, inevitably. We speak about how much/little sleep we are currently getting. I try not to dwell on it too much, otherwise I run the risk of falling into the trap of becoming obsessed with it. But we’ve hit some interesting new territory so I’m going to blog about it [...]

• Curious people
  

  Because of having 3 kids close together and a big belly, I get to talk to many different people on our various outings during the week. People are very curious about us. Some will stare and point rudely, others will swear with jaws dropping wide open, some will be nice and smile and many will [...]

• Mary had a …
  

  At lunch with the family yesterday, granny says to Jessie, “Mary had a…?” Jessie responds: “a little baby called Jesus. He grew up and had disciples. He died on the cross to save us from our sins. One day He will come back to earth and take everyone who believes in Him to heaven.” My [...]

• Expanding the Family
  

  Having “more” kids is always a hot topic amongst parents. Many are concerned about the age gap, the older child coping, dividing their love/time/attention/resources. In fact, this seems to stress so many parents out, that they only have 1 child. I really don’t think that they have a clue what they’re missing out on! (I’m [...]

• #4′s 22week scan
  

  We are already 22 weeks with #4! This pregnancy has been incredible so far. We’ve only had 2 scans until now and have not been scanned or had an appointment since 9 weeks. It really made the scan so much more exciting! Baby #4 is doing great! Everything looked beautiful. I’ve never seen such a [...]

• Tale of the bright pink leg
  

  That beautiful pink cast. It belongs to Jessie. Its been like that for the past 4 weeks. The worst part is… None of us know how she broke it! (Yes, yes, horrid parenting skills. I know) She was fine. On the Monday, she played and climbed and did everything like the tomboy she is. Not [...]

• Tamassa
  

  Our stay at the Tamassa was fantastic! My only complaint is that we didn’t stay longer Upon arrival, we were greeted by very friendly staff and cool, scented face-cloths. These were amazing! Especially considering our very interesting bus ride.  I’m sure they’re given to tourists to wipe the sweat from their brows that accumulated due [...]

• Mauritius by night
  

  We landed in Mauritius and were hit by a wall of humidity. We were all completely over-dressed! We were directed into the airport to go through passport control. Friends of ours had warned us that queues at passport control were long and slow, so we were prepared for the wait. Luckily for us, people with [...]

• Journey to Mauritius
  

  When we booked our Mauritius trip, I was very excited. But as they departure day loomed, I was nervous and a little stressed (to be fair, we did have jessie’s 4th birthday party the day before we left. All the organising contributed to my stress levels). To calm my nerves and try to lighten my [...]
