I’m a firm believer that best time to do a Spring clean is in the middle of Summer. Perhaps because I finally have a bit of time to dedicate to organising my terribly disorganised house! Post-Christmas, those wonderful holiday days of no schedule, no need to rush in the mornings, not drowning in emails and phone-calls for a change…ah…bliss, and the best time to attack!

So we’ve made great use of the time. Every room in the house has been given a thorough going-over. Even the cubby house (completely trashed! what on earth the kids were doing in there I’ve no idea. And where did all that sand come from??). We’ve stripped the main bedroom and are in the process of repainting it. I’ve made a huge dent in my enormous pile of laundry, averaging four washing loads every day for the last week (wow. I didn’t realise I had so many tea-towels). We’ve re-discovered and thrown out a gazillion bits of useless junk, consigned kerbside to await the council junk collection next week. So therapeutic!

I’ve also had a lovely time going through photos of my boys, downloaded but barely looked at until now, and picking out some gems from the last little while to share. My camera has not been gathering dust though, I’ve been snapping away as usual - we had a beautiful wedding to photograph just after Christmas, and I also took some photos of a friends’ adorable one year old twins a few days ago…here they are, the little munchkins!

Peek-a-boo Timmy!

He loved these colourful balloons.

I adore this one!

Alex finished his prep year at school and loved it. I’m still getting a kick out of seeing him read books now!

Of course, there are other important little boy things to do, such as playing Uno Attack and dreaming.
