This week’s featured Mother Blogger interview is Holly from Hollys Corner. I’m sure she hardly needs any introduction to some of you, because Holly is just about the most prolific reader and commentator on blogs you’ll see. Many of the sites I go to, there she is, on the MyBlogLog sidebar as being there before…
I have Keira to thank for this post. The other day when we were at the library, after we had exhausted the kid’s section, then the DVDs, we finally got to ‘my’ turn, which usually means I get a quick look at the non-fiction return trolley before one (or both) of the kids has a…
I can’t follow up yesterday’s post very well. I am sitting here after a horror night with Riley (will those molars just crack already?) and my eyes are blurred. I have thrown a dressing gown on and am unsure when I’ll muster up the strength to take it off again, because that means I need…
It’s lunchtime. Riley is sitting happily in the highchair, for once, gnawing his way through a teething rusk. Hi-5 music is playing in the background and when the synthesised melody of Keira’s favourite song “L-O-V-E” comes on she hops off her chair and, like an obedient automaton, begins to do the accompanying actions. I stare…
I have the great pleasure of posting the first of my Mother Blogger interviews. I enjoy Scribbit (Michelle’s) writing for many reasons: it’s balanced, clean, thoughtful text. She always covers a multitude of subjects from families to recipes to blogging tips. Basically, what I wish I was! I have not edited her responses in any…

Do you blog? Are you a mother?If you can answer ‘yes’ to both of those questions, then I want you (well, your help). I don’t care what nationality you are, what religion, age, star sign, or technorati ranking– everybody’s opinion matters. I am currently undertaking some research for this paper I am about to write….
Before you panic, don’t worry, because due to the public transport crisis in Melbourne at the moment, it seems 90% of the trains are stationary and not looking like moving much in the near future, and so no harm would befall me if I lay across the sleepers. Which brings us to the start of…
Well, it doesn’t really count yet. This was only orientation and she can’t begin 3 year old preschool by law until April, but we’re getting closer by the day and it’s scary. It’s scary enough it’s almost February. She was very excited. Once we got there, she was running all over, checking out all the…
