Never in my life have

Never in my life have I known my kids so keen to eat Weetbix for breakfast. I mean we’ve always been a Weetbix kinda family – but something has found it’s way out of the Weetbix packet and possessed my children. We need to buy boxes and boxes of it apparently.
Yes – my kids have been bitten by the ‘All Blacks Stats Cards’ bug. We don’t even watch the rugby in this house (well Ok, yea, the World cup we will, but we are a Rugby League family) but this doesn’t seem to stop my 2 boys needing more of those cards.
Sadly Jacob got keen before Braden and started madly collecting them, and now Braden has become quite the sad little monkey as he has just clicked on to the craze.

So if any of you have families that eat Weetbix but don’t want the cards and don’t know anyone that wants the cards, please consider sending them my way? Actually I have heard you can sell them on Trademe, so I might be pushing my luck. lol. I was going to take a photo of Braden doing his best puppy dog eyes please pose.. but I forgot. And I gave him Claratyne for an earache. And now he sleeps like a sleepy thing that is really really sleepy. lol.

I don’t think I shared this layout when I did it. It is Abby watching Paul cut a tree down a few months back. Of course in true 3 year old fashion, she totally knows better than him how to cut the tree down, and the pics are of her waving her hands around directing him in the fine art of tree-trimming.

A few quick things to finish off – Liz (with baby Oliver) – I’ve been trying to get hold of you! Email me! nic.paul (at) xtra.co.nz . And if I don’t answer you, that would be because of the xtra-email-system-from-hell. Half of NZ email users are nodding their heads in agreement with me right now.

And a quick linkety link link – Fab Ms Lee Longmire told me about a new challenge blog starting up. It is international and launches at that link on Sept 1st. I’ll be checking.
