Things I have learnt this weekend...

It is completely possible for 6 kids of 6 and under to totally wreck a room in the duration of two rugby games. It will take mommy (with a 5 year old's help) two hours to tidy up the toys.

I will never allow above to happen again - now I am tidy as you play Nazi even with other people's kids.

There are brilliant party ideas around that I have not seen before. The bug in the jello one was a huge hit.

I really like chickens - they are so photogenic,



Rabbits love cupcakes!

Puppies and kids go together like peas and carrots.

It is possible to have a whole night's sleep and still sleep for another 2 and a half hours the next morning and be exhausted by 9 the night and sleep from 9:30. I guess we are still sleep deprived to an extend.

Some friendships can resume after 22 and 3 years in the blink of an eye (post following on this one)

There is nothing as sweet as a newborn.This one had all the attention at Saturday's party.

    4. It looks like you guys had a lot of fun despite having a disaster zone to clean up afterwards.

      I'm thinking to have the girls' party away from our home for this exact same reason!

      I don't feel like yelling at Johnny to get off the sofa and Jackie to please not swing from the chandelier!
