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

UK bound (part 1)

So there's NO way I could do this as one post. Mostly because it would be 500 photo's long, but also because I would just never get it done. I'm breaking it into small manageable goals (yes busted...I have been reading the weight watchers website :oP).

Part 1 - Gladstone to London. Check!









Notable moment... Steff took Saxon to the toilets in Dubai. He was standing next to a very large African man in full traditional dress and says in a typically loud 4 year old voice "Wow! That man has a gimornous winky!". Let's hope he doesn't speak English, shall we? lol

Stay tuned for Part 2...one day soon ;o)

Cleaning out my folders and found some unblogged pics. There's no order...just sharing them as they are :o)

4 on the 4th...

Our baby is 4. Sniff. I'm not very happy about that. What I am happy about is that every day he looks more and more like his Daddy...who he also inherited his overwhelming dorkiness from :oP





Maybe it's time for another one? Wyatt thinks so...

Wyatt: Mummy, I really want a baby sister.
Mummy: Erm...well...I'll have to chat to Daddy about that.
Wyatt: NO! Don't do that! He'll say no...Just go out and get one and don't tell him!!

He might notice...? xxx

OMG!

2 posts in a week? Is she sick? Is the moon blue? Did Hell freeze over? Possibly all 3... Don't hold your collective breath(s?) waiting for it to happen again, ok?

Wyatt turned 6 on Saturday, and I was too lazy busy to blog it...so better late than never, right? (story of my life :o/).

He posed himself "I know what I'm doing Mummy...I've been doing this for a long time you know!"






Happy birthday my special boy xxx

Wow...

I suck, huh?

Anywho...the boys are so funny I had to share, so you can thank them later :oP

Wyatt is a little excited about going to England in a few weeks. Yesterday he was writing love notes to Aunty Fiona. So cute! And he pulls out this card...


The conversation goes like this...

Wyatt: Is Aunty Fiona in this picture?
Me: Yep, can you guess which one she is? She has long blonde hair.
Saxon: I see her! *looks a little confused* Why does she have a beard?

Must run in the family...

Dodgy hair that is...



Even Bebby!

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...
