Oh Baby

The decision to add a fourth little bebe to our family was not an easy one for Levi and I. Life is chaos already, pregnancy for me has gotten progressively harder with each little addition and we question our abilities as parents at the best of times. But for each difficultly the flip side pointed to yes - life chaos? It couldn't get much crazier. Pregnancy hard? It will be over before you know it. Not that great at parenting? The others seem okay so far. The truth is that the little niggling feeling that there was another person for our family did not go away and in the end there was no other choice for us but yes, let''s have another baby, a fourth and final addition to complete our little clowder (family of cats - isn't that cute!?). 

In the Blink of an Eye { Quill 18 Months }

This blue-eyed, gorgeous boy of ours is 18 months old and growing and changing with each passing day. We had the day just the two of us this past Thursday and it was lovely to really look into his sweet little face and watch the joy and wonder of his experiences cross it. I took him to a little local music class, where he shakes the instruments and bops from side to side with his little dance moves. Then we walked the 100 of so meters to the op shop, past lots of exciting sites like the post office, police station, a phone box, gardens, sticks and a road, all the things of little boys dreams. It makes for an adventure filled 15 minutes for Quill with the ultimate destination of morning tea and 50 cent toys at the op shop. He gets to have a snack, a play and before coming home for a rest. It was lovely to just take the time to watch him and be with him, I know before I know it he won't be my little toddler any more.
