Hecky thump

I'll betcha thought I would never blog again. Didn't you?

Well, me too actually.  I wonder if there is some kind of "lose the will to blog" virus? If so, I have had a nasty case of it. Much has happened. We have had terrible, terrible, terrible news.  Mabel Rutter is moving to Canada. Soon. August, in fact. Daddy Rutter has been offered some awesome job or another. Me and the rest of the Mummy gang are in serious mourning. The only thing keeping me going is the thought of all of the leaving partys they will have.  What will we do without Mummy Rutter's outlook on life? How will we manage without Mummy Rutter introducing us to x-rated cocktails on ' our Mum's night out'? I will potentially lose one of my favourite friends, and how will we live without Mabel? Goddamit to hell and back again.

There are so many reasons to love Mabel. I will never understand why she needs to remove her clothes - for no apparent reason. Take this example..one minute the children are happily bouncing on the trampoline, with their clothes on.  And the next.....

naked from the waste down. All except sensible Alex. Now, I did not see how this turn of events came about, but I know, I just KNOW Mabel started it. I was impressed by them dumping their pants, socks and trousers in a neat little pile underneath the trampoline exit.

On the up side, at least I will see Rebecca again in November. Once again, we Mummy's are off to New York! And this time there are more of us! And my sister is coming! So is my niece! Ha ha ha ha!!!

Here are few of my favourite snaps from over the last 3 months or so.

Ahhhhhh

Argh!

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
