It's been a while since I last posted - keeping up a blog is hard work.  Since the last post a lot has changed - the oldest boy is almost a teenager - a fact which delights his brothers, they remind him as often as possible.  Number 2 is as studious as ever, he is heavily into making his own Lego movies.  Icac seems to be living up to his nickname (ICAC standing for the Independent Commission Against Corruption for those of you who aren't in the know).  He is Mr. Organised and ensures that we are not late for any of his activities.  Cay Cay is, well, he is Cay Cay.  He is a crazy larrikin who can make us experience a whole range of emotions in one day - laughter one minute, frustration the next.  A bit like Melbourne weather.  He is a delight.  Jo jo has been added to the pack, with him we have a handful of boys.  He adores his daddy and wants to help 'fix' everything.  He has just learnt to ride his bike without training wheels, a pretty big achievement for a 3 year old.  Finally we now also have Abstar, and boy has the balance of power shifted in our house again.  She is the pretty little princess who has all the boys enchanted with her shenanigans.  With 6 kids and homeschooling, things can get a bit hectic in our house, never a dull moment.  But we wouldn't have it any other way.  :)
