Last night I had a blog post all mapped out in my head, but I got sidetracked by The Hangover, very funny!
We had Daniel’s ‘prize giving’ on Saturday for Kiddy Sports which he was very, very excited about. Here he is with his BFF:
At this point I should add that we were very late as we were trying to buy U2 tickets. Husband in the queue and me at home with the 3 children trying to buy online. What a mess. After some extended whining about it on twitter someone suggested the Computicket at Sanlam, so he was promptly dispatched there and walked straight in, bought his tickets, and walked out.
We had hoped that our outing would mean the girls are nice and tired and would sleep in the afternoon. Which they eventually did after 1.5 hrs of playing in their room. They managed to strip all the bedding off and move the mattress of Mignon’s bed. There was much singing and dancing and jumping. Hubby then took them to watch some TV and this is them, 45 seconds later.
The rest of the weekend was a lovely blur of friends, chatting and (too much) wine, but I am really grateful it’s Monday today!
The girls are still driving us nuts screeching at the poor puppy, we are at our wits’ end. I don’t know how much longer I can cope with it, but the dog is staying. He sleeps between Daniel’s bed and Hubby’s side of our bed, sweet little thing! Any suggestions on what we can do to make it easier? (Isabel is far worse than Mignon)
What a gorgeous picture of the girls with Daddy 🙂 That is too precious! I wish Connor would go lie with his Daddy some days!
Sorry – no advice on the dog! Strange that the girls don’t like him – kids are usually all over little (and even not so little) pups! Strange indeed.
Thanks Rebecca, they never normally lie down either, guess they were just so tired by this time!
love the pic of D and his BFF! So cute!
Dad and the girls are precious! Can’t help you with the screeching girls and puppies … sorry! we don’t have a dog and munchkin loves seeing dogs on TV and things but in person she whines and moans til someone picks her up! as a result when i visit my best friend i have to carry her the entire time we’re there … makes for very tiring visits!
Adorable pics! Love the girls all over Daddy.
LOL @ Daniel’s BFF with her hand on his butt! Lucky you that you got U2 tickets – Twitter clearly has its uses. With the girls, tell them that the only language the puppy understands is soft whispers?! Maybe divide and rule would work because it seems like they feed off each other’s screeching – so only one girl allowed near the puppy at any time? Oh, who am I kidding – I don’t know! Good luck, girlfriend. And if all fails have another glass of wine!
Cute pic of BFF!And Dad with his girls! Sorry, no dog advice….toddlerboy can’t keep his hands off them….as in grab -by-the-throat- kind- of -love.
Your children are beautiful.
O M G….totally forgot about the Kiddy sports prize giving, am going to mommy-forgets-everything hell for sure! But how cute are these pics Tania ! Just too precious!
Awww, the pics are just to cute! Good luck with puppy. I have zero advice, but you do have my thumb-holding that all works out.
That was our problem as well, I hope munchkin doesn’t end up like the girls, I can’t stand it!
They loooove their Daddy! Dankie skat!
Divide and conquer sounds good to me 🙂
Daniel also loves the doggies, just the girls that don’t. Weird.
I agree 🙂
Wahahaha I forgot last year! Thank you Carmen 🙂
I like thumbholding. Thank you 🙂
Cute pics! Holding thumbs that the girls start to love puppy!
Me too. Enough already.
What gorgeous photos, you all have great relationships going in your family. As far as the puppy and the girls go, I am afraid that I have to be on Suki’s side and just hold thumbs and send positive vibes, I have no further advice! 🙁 xx
That’s more than enough for me, thank you so much 🙂
