Me: "Havi, please stop touching your bum, you'll get pink eye."

Havi: "You need to stop being mean or you'll get rainbow eye."

Me: "Really?"

Havi: "Yeah, can I pick your nose?"

Me: "No you cannot, you'll get green eye."

A conversation with Havi after I called Peter... well Peter!

Havi: "Mum, why do you call him Peter when you're married?"

Me: "What should I call him?"

Havi: "Babe."

I have to admit, 9 times out of 10 that's what I call him and he calls me.... she's right!!

They're ramping up for Halloween at school. Her class were drawing 'monster' pictures for a big project going up on the wall in the hallway. Havi explained a friends picture to me.

Havi: "Grant drew a vampire. Mum, what is a vampire?"

Me: "Well, a vampire is a monster that looks human."

Havi: "Why do they look like humans if they're monsters?"

Me: "Well, it's their disguise, so no-one knows they're monsters."

Havi: "So why are they monsters if no-one knows?"

Me: "Good question, I have no answer for you. They are make-believe though." I really didn't want to start the whole 'sucking blood' conversation.

Havi: "Oh, okay"

To Mow Or Not To Mow...


The latest trend in our back yard, it's become a nightly event! Havi's getting pretty good at steering!

Unfortunately Moo goes on a wild tail chase as soon as the mower starts up... and dangerous one, so she spends mower time here...

Havi, Taylor, Ian and Thomas!

A couple of weekends ago we went to see Thomas the Tank Engine at A Day out with Thomas in Burnet, Texas. We kept it a surprise from them all beforehand and seeing their faces when they first saw a full size Thomas was great.

As well as a 25 minute ride on carriages pulled by Thomas we also got Thomas tattoo's, played and coloured and got our picture taken with Thomas.
