Triple the love, Triple the vibes
Triple the odds of someone waking you up in the night 

You have the best smile that lights up your whole face (and mine) and the saddest, sad face

You’re swivelling around and chewing on your hands and my hands and dad’s hand 

And I love that you’re on board for a morning stroller nap parked outside the coffee shop 

I feared I’d never feel ‘done’ having babies, and although Sawyer is still rallying for “twelve more” 😆 I feel so content in how you have rounded out our family

August, you are a delight

Felt like I cracked a life hack with a 15:30 Birthday ‘Dunch’ - kids had plans in the morning so brunch was out and I didn’t want to be out late with a baby to feed during the night. Free flow food & drinks AND in bed by 9pm 🤣🙌🏻 Thanks @cooshtihk 

Felt really loved and special, and for once the weather was great in Honkers on my bday and we ended the day with a rooftop braai

Not to mention all the love she showers onto her grandchildren and the effort she makes when they’re in the same place. 

What a privilege to have her.

This is 2 months 🧡 It’s 9h21 on a Tuesday mo This is 2 months 🧡

It’s 9h21 on a Tuesday morning. We’re sitting in a coffee shop, you’re asleep on my chest. You can nap like this for hours - at home, not so much (but I’m more than happy to oblige and be out in the world with a hot beverage). You fell asleep feeding this morning and had a 10min cat nap before waking yourself up with an enthusiastic poop. You were still in my arms, and I had been contemplating moving you onto the Sleepyhead right next to me, but as per usual it was currently occupied by a little dog who is convinced it is for him (as they are with most baby related things). 

Your washing is waiting to be put away but already more and more things will not be going back into your cupboard. We said you’ll be the last and I fear every little chapter closing will feel more painful than the one before. I’m torn between keeping lots of little clothes for a quilt, and passing them on for someone else to love (and feel the love passed on with them). 

I couldn’t help but lean down and kiss your head, you stir somewhat. Worth the risk.

AITA? Monday. Recovering from a weekend of 4yr birthday party, birthday day & a trip to Hong Kong Disneyland. Wrapping paper strewn. An obstacle course of small pieces of everything to go anywhere. The overwhelm is tangible. Gifs given with…

The Surprising Thing My Miscarriages Made Me Think About Abortion

Or maybe not surprising at all, if only we spoke about all the things with truth, facts and honesty, no shame, no hushed tones.  I’ve had two silent miscarriages, followed by D&C procedures. Looking over my medical notes, the official…
