Update: my 5

We just love shocking people by telling them we have 5 kids.

Some call us brave, I say we are blessed

Our little top model Dinnique is going to gr R next year, she has so much charisma and elegance,  she totally belongs on the stage and the sports field

Cara-Mia will be starting gr RR here at home with mom, where she belongs. Love seeing how much she is like me, always thinking outside the box and being unique.

Ciane just turned two and is shocking every one not only by how well he speaks but also with the fact that he speaks both English and Afrikaans. He is such a little learner and loves his books.

Carmin is kn the verge of walking which is so cute, she is such a little explorer. She is so beautiful and always makes us laugh

Little unknown inside is growing nicely, birth junkie mom is already exited for the birth. Dinnique and Cara-Mia says its their turn to catch babe, Carie is used to it but it will be a first for Dinnique

Actually can't explain how one heart can be so devided. Each child so special and so loved.

I chew allot of rocks for them, and get criticism on a daily bases, but they truly are my everything, will fight for them till my last breath

Breast feeding is natural not normal

In our life time there are so many different parenting styles.   We all do what we think is right, or what others pressure us to do.   What might be ‘normal’ to me, can sound strange to you.   For me it is normal for my children to sleep in bed with me.   For you it might be normal to keep the bed restricted to mommy and daddy.   For me it is normal to do baby led weaning, for you it is normal to give baby cereal at 4 months because the clinic sister said so. The statement I would like to make today is that breast feeding has nothing to do with what you think is normal or not.   It should be seen as a natural step following birth.   I think allot of mothers are afraid of being labeled or pushed under a certain parenting style and then choose to not breast feed.   SA’s breastfeeding statistics are shocking.   And because only 1 in 3 women really can’t breast feed we are obviously looking at a bigger problem.   Information and sup...

The birth of Carmin Callisa (rewrite)

Carmin Callisa 19 December 2013 Unplanned planned assisted birth at home The first time I wrote this story wasn't very good. I think I was a little too negative to an overall positive birthing experience. Both my other births went smooth and quick in their own way. And I was about to experience something totally different than what I expected. Ciane (baby nr 2) was 4 months old, exclusively breastfed, when we found out I was pregnant. I have to share this we were away for the weekend with my parents and my oldest daughter, then 3 told my mother she is going to have a baby sister named Callisa. We all laughed and joked until I started getting sick on the Monday .. like morning sickness sick. So I had a three year old and a basically newborn, needless to say my pregnancy was a little more stressed and busy as apposed to the 9 months I basically spent in bed with the others. We decided we are going to have an unassisted home birth. We know the drill. Until w...

Awesome news

. God wants to use me to help other woman and children, and I am reporting for duty. I feel so blessed and know God has a huge plan for us. At first I was shocked now I am over joyed!!! I am about 5 weeks pregnant with my third baby.  Every child is a huge gift from God.  I feel so honored to be given this huge responsibility.  I make so many mistakes every day but I know that He will always pick me up and put me back on track. I did not mention God in any of my previous posts, I thought i would keep religion out of it and just speak in general.  But I was wrong to do so, cause whithout his mercy I am nothing and I'm capable of nothing. My God is an awesome God and I need to speak up.
