28 feet + 3 Kids Under 3

8/52

“A portrait of our children, once a week, every week, in 2013.”

Juju: “Mmmm, I like it. I’m really happy, Mum.”
Mowgli: He has a sweet tooth and inhaled his icecream in no time flat.
Coco: He HAD to climb with his. Up onto the Ikea kids kitchen for a view out of the window.
He was followed quickly by his partner in crime.

Icecreams on a crazily hot day.

We’ve been melting in our uninsulated 1920′s weatherboard home.

It’s currently 35 degrees (95F) at 10pm inside the house! (And about the same inside our Airstream).

It’s our sixth day in a row of plus 30 temperatures and crazy humidity here in Melbourne. Most of Australia has had the hottest summer on record.

It’s too hot to sleep so I’m posting Week 8 of Jodi’s 52 Project a few days early.

Hooray for Spring

Spring is here and my heart is dancing.

The breeze is carrying the scent of jasmine flowers.

I don’t care there’s a Severe Weather Warning and rain forecast for all weekend. The glorious sunshine is just around the corner.

After the stress of moving house and a long sleep-deprived winter, I feel like shouting from the rooftop, “IT’S SPRING, IT’S SPRING, IT’S SPRING.”

We’ve already had three nice days where the kids could play barefoot in the garden, roll in the grass and eat dirt.

Hooray for Spring.
