Midget Gasoline Thieves

I just read somewhere that kids have so much energy because they siphon it out of their parents like midget gasoline thieves.

How true!

Here are a few pics of my midget gasoline thieves these school holidays.

Family fun, Burleigh beach


Wipe out!

Burleigh Beach

Cute little feral kiddies (one day I will get a photo of all five together... one day)

Girl beach, family fun Burleigh, Burleigh Beach

With the obligatory self portrait of moi ~
(nobody ever wants to take photos of mums)

How are you going these school holidays?  Is your tank nearly on empty?

We are defiantly running on empty here.

Lazy here. I'm taking the school head at his word - he told us to let them be very bored over this break. I so am. PJ day declared by the Little Man today, so he is co operating!

that is so true. i always say that they suck the life out of you once you birth them. they take everything your energy, your stamina, your memory, your once skinny body everything.

today we are having a at home day. got washing to catch up on and house cleaning.

You look great for someone being robbed by 5 of them on a daily basis!
Enjoy!

The beach seriously is the best place to wear kids out! You are gorgeous.

Hilarious!

My husband was wondering why I had started taking self-portraits, thinking I was vain. I had to point out that there were not many photos of me over the years because no one ever thought to take them of me, and he was astounded. It wasn't intentional for him to not to take photos of me, but at least now he knows! xx

We are definitely running on empty! With four kids sucking my energy it's no wonder I struggle to get out of bed!
Great photos!

Good on you taking your own photo. I started doing that about 18 months ago.

Ha! I love the 'sand angel' pic although it makes me cringe thinking of all the sandy hair!!

Thank God holidays are over lol! xx
