The Little Daily: Over-Sext

There are only three kinds of photos I send to Bren's phone. The first is of the kids. Naturally. They're face-punch cute and he totally agrees that they are. The other two are demonstrated above.  And normally, I send them one after the other. One says, "Hey baby, I'm hot and you could get lucky […]

35 weeks – the give and the take

It must be noted that Ziggy was born when I was 36.5 weeks pregnant. Baby could be here in 1.5 weeks. 1.5 weeks???? Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! I'm nervous. So let's take a look at how this pregnancy is tracking. Because like all things in life, God giveth and god taketh away, even with a poor, defenseless preggo […]

2011 in 12

I know many people who are ready to kick 2011 in the arse on it's way out. For me, for us, it has been a year of challenges, for sure, but for the most part, I think 2011 has been kind to the Family M-G. So for that, I am grateful. And now, a photo […]

So a cup of sugar is out of the question?

So a cup of sugar is out of the question?

  We feel we have been very patient with your child running and jumping in the early hours of the morning for the time you have been living here. We realise only a child but a bit of respect both for the owner and neighbours would be appreciated as the walls are thin and things echo.We […]

Out(ings) of my mind

Our recent outing to the beach was a family highlight. It was lovely to see the boys exploring the beach but more than that, it was just an easy and relatively stress-free event. As evidenced by the photos I took. As evidenced by the fact that I could take photos at all. All family outings […]

The Pay Off

The Pay Off

B has started studying this year. An off-campus engineering degree. While working full-time. He is insane. And I love him for it. In order for this to work, we are having to juggle things a little and on some nights, I have to pick up the slack where B would previously have helped out. That's […]

Heads Up! A Mad World

The time has come for another Heads Up! in which I tell you about some blog awesomeness of which you may not have been previously aware. And to sweeten the deal, this particular blogger has been awesome enough to write a guest piece for us here at The Little Mumma.   So I am very excited to feature the work of a good friend, […]

Unbearable Lightness

Unbearable Lightness

The last two days, I've been in a weird headspace. And I really can't pinpoint why. I think, sometimes, there are too many things to do. Always so many things that need doing. Every now and then, that weight of expectation becomes unbearable. We carry it and carry it and then, there comes the day that it sits so […]

Happy Birthday

February 27, 1945 The baby girl is born. Unlike her older brother, his chest crushed as his little body made its way into the world some 18 months prior, she survives.   1950 The little girl. The tummy ache. The party she doesn’t want to miss. The burst appendix. The stomach gangrene. She will not […]

Stepford Misstep

Lately, if you were to drop in to my place unannounced, you might notice a few changes. I’ve decided to let a few things go. Primarily, the housework. Not entirely, of course. I am still washing clothes and cleaning toilets. I cook and I pack up toys. So actually, maybe nothing much has changed on […]

Hello friends

I’m Angie!  I mum. I write. I wife. My husband would say this is the correct order.  He’s so neeeedy. I live with my family in Melbourne, Australia, where I complain about the weather for 90% of the year – but I can’t imagine living anywhere else. Except maybe in Lake Como, waving to my neighbours George and Amal each morning.
