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

Wyatt had a day at home today for his first appointment with his Irlen Syndrome specialist. He did very well...he's now reading with a clear yellow sheet over his work, and the instant increase in the speed of his reading was amazing. Once they've done a bit of fine tuning, he'll be fitted with his Irlen lenses (we went shopping today for his glasses...he picked the 3 most expensive frames in the store. He's definitely mine!), and that will make his school life a little easier for him.

I asked him for some suggestions for a "travel" photo and he told me "Bebby. Bebby has travelled a lot."

So that's what we have...a well travelled Bebby, and his boy ;o)

Words of wisdom from Grayson. "Gaige, just deal with it. Shape shifters are NOT immortal, and the strongest thing in the world is the Hulks pants".

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...
