today was the first time:
:: i've been outside the front gate for 3 weeks.
::Sawyer has been in a car
::Sawyer has been outside of our home!
::there have been 5 of my own kids in our car
(and yes, it takes approximately 5 hours to get them all in and buckled. urgh.)
i was SO nervous, but we survived!
(all photos by Jada (8) except the ones she is in)
















Wow! You are one brave lady...and looking fantastic!
ReplyDeletenot really that brave...just desperate. the family was close to starving! :)
DeleteSo brave! Well done!! Glad all went okay and the last photo is so great (plus I love the close ups of the lollies and chocolate, hee, hee! - definitely a priority!).
DeleteI agree - very brave! And you look great!... and stocking back up on more baby mooning treats I see?
ReplyDeletei commend you on a job well done and looking very pretty while doing your hunting and gathering!! im so impressed by your car also! what do you drive? i see extra seats for friends! im very interested..
ReplyDeletenope, no space for mates, we're at capacity! it's a Toyota Ipsum (or Picnic in some countries) and is only a 7 seater.
Delete:) thanks dee
DeleteGreat job with the camera Jada! Well done Mum too. The first time seems so daunting doesn't it, but it looks like you all aced it!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could make pak'n'save look that exciting, hahaha!! xx
ReplyDeleteI remember the trepidation - and I only have 2!!!!! The car definitely looks at full capacity.
ReplyDeleteRegardless of how many kids you've got you look absolutely beautiful - love the outfit. Stunner! x
Super Mum!! Love the pics - we have a 6 seater for us and our 4 kids. Loving the chocolate spotted in your groceries!!

ReplyDeleteGreat effort in getting out mama! And on Jada for the pics...budding photographer in action :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat job Jada! The pics are fantastic...and well done Mama. Jxx
ReplyDeleteGo Jada. I love the yellow wall. Mental Note take the camera everywhere. Looks like you all had more fun at Pak n Save than me today. Two screaming children for most of it and then my card got declined. It's funny now. The nicest thing was the trolley man who offered to push my trolley to the car as I was holding one screaming child and juggling handbag etc. Anyways I'm loving seeing sawyer pics. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteWow, you are a superwoman! I have four children myself but I do not have the courage to go grocery shopping with all of them ;-)
ReplyDeleteSo impressed! You guys are looking awesome.
ReplyDeletewell done! You look so relaxed.
ReplyDeleteSnap, we have the same car hehe. I remember the first time I went out with all 5, I felt like Mama duck with her babies! Braving the supermarket with all 5 however?.... I think I'd rather go to war! Well done! As for your budding wee photographer, beautiful pics Jada! Clever girl xx
ReplyDeletejada got some pretty good shots! your children are so pretty. :]
ReplyDeleteLove the pics! What kind of baby wrap do you have? Did you make it?
ReplyDeleteit's just 5m of non-stretch cotton fabric. super easy, super comfy, super cheap :)
DeleteGood work. I find it hard enough getting out the house with 3 let alone 5! Don't you love it how the big siblings love entertaining baby in the car!
ReplyDeleteThat first outing is always so nerve racking isn't it? And I can only speak for three kids. Those baby wraps are wonderful and I still use my hug-a-bub for Violet occasionally. She loved the wrap and later the sling. You are looking great, by the way!
ReplyDeleteWell done Jada - awesome photo-journalism
