OKAY its a fresh new year - pictures

Well Our Christmas went well , we went down to the farm for a week, dressed up as Super heros, went swimming in the dam alot as there was a heat wave, all the kids loved the dam and much to my fright Peanut loved it so much he wandered down there on his own for a swim ! YEP I freaked out ! That horrible sinking feeling running like Bolt down to the water to see a happy little head bobbing around in the water.  I fritzed, Burst into tears went pale for a while with the what if and buts and  then realization that he really has no concept of danger ( which is a hard one  as Ive always thought he knew his limitations even though he was a dare devil and I guess he still is he just doesn't understand what would have happened if he had slipped and gone to deep ).

Shrimples has been super emotional of late (and constantly in his iron man outfit )  and Peanut has been well .. Peanut ( which can be different from one day to the next ), Both itching to go back to school / daycare  ( they have 5/6 weeks till school starts again )  the weather has cooled down now (  for the time being anyway )  and the boys are playing outside alot or watching super hero squad, I really need to take them to the park today as I have been a lazy mum, Peanuts Birthday is on the 12th and Rent inspection on the 15th, So Im busy cleaning all the things  that don't get cleaned for 3 month and you can't even tell have been cleaned  once they are cleaned unless you live here, ovens, Back rooms, draws  etc.

 Planning the big Pirate party extravaganza, alot more people coming than  I had hoped although  I wish I could still invite more. I hope peanut copes with all the people as it is his day, He knows everyone so thats a bonus we have borrowed a bouncy castle and we are doing up the undercover outside area piratey, I've made a game  "pin the treasure on the map" and  also got a pinyata  I don't want to plan too much there will be 20 Children  half of which will have Autism and all between  3 and 7.  I wish Peanut could pick whom he wanted to come and it would be that simple but since he doesn't really have friends  I just went with the kids he seems to get drawn to most.  I know he has two favourites and they will be attending so I got that right,  just got to wait and see if its too many kids ( then I will feel super silly) Shrimples will have a great time though with all those kids !

Fingers crossed  for us

I have included some Photos from  our Christmas week  - Yep this year Im going to include photos for a more personal touch.
