Once upon a time...


In a land far far away, there lived a king and a queen and their four beautiful children... Unfortunately they were way too boring to write about, so you're all stuck with the Dimmock's instead!

We're a bit of a fractured fairytale.I can't promise to update every day...I'm a bit slack like that (shhh), but I'll do my best to keep it up.

And they all lived happily ever after...well that's the plan at least :oP

A word of warning...

This is a rather touchy subject for me. I'm NOWHERE near seeing the funny side of this situation. In fact, I highly doubt that I ever will. So please refrain from the following...

a) Making "witty" remarks. I won't think you're clever. Or funny. Not even a little bit.
b) Telling me that it's "only" hair and it'll grown back. It will NOT make me feel better.
c) Telling me that it's about time he had a haircut anyway because he looked like a girl. Yeah...steer WAY clear of that one.
d) Telling me he's still cute and you even like it better like this. Just DO NOT go there.

The above recommendations will stay in place for ohhh...I reckon forever? Yeah. Forever is good for me.

Apparently Wyatt has "always wanted to be a hairdresser", and decided to begin his apprenticeship on Saturday morning.

What Saxon looked like last week...


What Saxon looked like by Saturday afternoon...


Yeah...freakin hilarious.

What Saxon looks like now...


I don't even have the words to express how utterly heart sick I am over this.

A little about us...ok, mostly me...

Hey there! I'm guessing that most people who drop by to visit us here already know who we are, but just in case...

My name's Nikki. I'm mum to 4 (yeah, 4...can you believe it? No, me either *shudder*) kids, aged from 16 down to 4. My husband, Steff, is originally from the UK - I stole him away from the cold and the damp to live in Central Queensland, where he must endure almost endless sunshine and blue skies. Somehow he manages ;o)

I started this blog as a way to keep family in England up to date with our comings and goings. And it lets me show off how cute the kids are getting!

A little about me...I'm a professional photographer, I'm obsessive about Buffy the Vampire Slayer, love Harry Potter, Sookie Stackhouse (only book Sookie, not True Blood Sookie. It's an important distinction!), (the 10th) Doctor Who, cupcakes, and Spuffy fanfic (although not necessarily in that order). I'm also an extreme perfectionist with a love of the creative and original, who has a very low tolerance for stupidity. If you ask my husband, he'll tell you I'm a huge snob - I'm really not. I just think I'm better than everyone else :oP (That's a joke, ok? Pretty much).

Oh, and please leave a comment to tell me how fabulous you think I am...it makes me write faster and more often ;o) No really...that part wasn't a joke...
