Ahhhh...boys will be boys!

I was all ready to bake you some cookies, the flour was in the bowl, the spices were added, the butter and sugar all melted and then there was a scream outside.

Aidan fell and cut his forehead and I panicked, I saw blood and I was not the calm mum I normally am, I cried, he cried...Amelie cried and then we went to the hospital.

After alot of crying, he got some gas (I could have used some), calmed down and three stitches later and a cuddle and sleep, we were playing with trucks in the hospital room.

Maybe I'll get to those cookies tomorrow...right now I am still a little shaken...

    Hmm - think my last comment got eaten by the blogland gobbledok. Oh well, all that to say : all's well that ends well. Poor Mummy and poor possum. And adventure to be recounted many a time over muffins no doubt ;-)

    Accidents are so scary, you poor thing, I would have been crying too! My Bill had a bad fall when he was a baby and I am still recovering! Hope your sweetie is better soon and mama too xo

    Cathie, hope all is well now with you all. A bottle of Rescue Remedy would have been drunk by all if it happened here! Maybe make some peanut butter play dough..... thanks for dropping by. x

    Those days are so exhausting, aren't they? I hope you found a moment to pamper yourself last night - if not, make sure you give yourself a very special treat tonight!!! The scar will become a great battle story for Aidan later in life, if it hasn't already! I hope it heals quickly and doesn't get too itchy...

    My son split his forehead when he was little too. Sometimes I think it's almost scarier for us than it is for our boys! Hope your dear, sweet boy heals quickly! ;0)

    Oh no, how horrible, Cathie. We don't like blood. Or hospitals. Or frights. Hope he's heaps better now.

    Boys ... I swear they take 10 years off your life!

    I am glad he is OK! I have two younger brothers, and this scenario was quite common in my house when I was growing up, it does give you a fright.

Berrylicious ice cream recipe and a giveaway for you

Image
As the weather warms up the kids tend to ask for something cold and yummy to enjoy after school. Reading the ingredients labels on ice cream I feel at a loss trying to figure out what all those numbers mean, I mean really, it’s just ice cream, how many ingredients need to be in there after all. I love to try and make everything from scratch so why not ice cream, well I had a go and using an ice cream maker made it really quick and easy.

It feels like I haven't been around for such a long time and I really have missed you! There has been alot going on in the m.e family but I am still camera challenged so for the first time in many years I feel unable to express myself.   Unable to document moments in our family's life that are firsts and some that just need to be filed away and remembered. kinder friends and their Diwali henna tattoos The kids went on their first ever camel ride the other day at the Whittlesea show and I couldn't photograph it, I baked a cake and wanted to share it with you but I couldn't. So while I await for my cameras return I have been using Amelie's camera and funnily enough...I have absolutely no idea how the functions work so things may still be a little quiet around here. As for today, I tried so hard to control the tears as another first came around, Amelie's prep orientation. After a little bit of hesitant start she was happy and excited and I even got a d...
