Emigration to do list: Part two #Myexpatfamily

15/11/2014 | posted under: Emigrate, Linkys, Guest Posts & Sponsored

Following on from part one of my emigration to do list (which covered everything we did before we left to UK for our new life in Australia), here is part two, which is an emigration checklist of all the things you need to do when you arrive in Australia. We were clearly deluded into thinking the hard part was leaving the UK. Of course, the emotional side of things was very difficult, and so was the sheer amount of admin we had to do to close our lives down. But nothing prepared us for the busy . . . Keep Reading

Can children adapt to change? #MyExpatFamily linky

A family looking out to sea

When we first started talking about moving to Australia, our boys were excited. They wanted to feed kangaroos, cuddle koalas and go whale watching. The adventure of a new home sounded fabulous to them... when it was just talk. The month before we left the UK, T2's attitude changed. Someone at one of our leaving parties mentioned in passing that he was going to speak funny when he got to Australia.

I never take for granted how lucky I was to carry my boys to full term, as I know too many others who weren't so lucky. Humans are designed to carry one baby; accommodating two puts such a strain on your body and when I look at my boys I'm still amazed they both managed to come out of 5-foot-tall me!Anyway, over the . . .

Sibling love: The ordinary moments

26/02/2014 | posted under: All Things Twins, Linkys, Guest Posts & Sponsored

I couldn't pick one ordinary moment from the last week as there were too many good ones, so you've got two instead! Both are along the theme of sibling love.The first is a cute kiss between T1 and E. A while ago, she started giving really big kisses to everyone. She hasn't figured out you put your lips together to kiss, instead she comes at you with a wide open mouth. When she's planted her kiss (half of it over your nose) she leans back and says "Bah", giggles and then comes back for . . . Keep Reading
