You all know I have 3 of the little dudes, but I’ve noticed things are changing around here…
They’re growing up… derrr of course they are, but with that comes a whole new world for me!
I’m losing my coolness. Big time. She’s slowly slipping away…
Cruise is turning 12 in 2 weeks and he’s sucked the coolness right outta me. 2 more are slowly following suit…
Here’s a list of my notes to self ::
♦  Do not over use your hands when talking because apparently it’s really irritating.
♦  Do not mention a DJ or cool dance track (even if you like that song) because you’re only trying too hard.
♦  Casually mention you’ll be swimming at their pool party with 30 kids. The facial expressions are priceless.
♦  Fist pump and recognise today will be good day when there is no wee on the floor when you go to clean it up (as you do every single morning).
♦  Do not linger too long at school ever.
♦  Do not talk too much to the girls in their year. It’s embarrassing.
♦  Do not wear huge sunglasses or animal print excessively. It’s a bit too much apparently.
♦  Haircuts are really really important to them. If you want to look like Andrew Fifita and have a new style with lines you’ll need to keep this up every 4 weeks (sooner if you can be bothered).
♦  Kids meals when you go out for dinner are in the past. Chuck them a steak or parmi with chips and salad.
♦  Start looking for a night job. Food is bloody expensive. Oh, and never take them grocery shopping because that costs you heaps more!
Anyway, as if I’d change a thing. Life would be dull without them. At least they make me laugh!
