I'm a Kiwi, Hear Me Talk...



I must be nuts.
My dear friend Gail (currently residing in the depths of China) issued a challenge to Vlog.
I have studiously avoided vlogging like the plague.
But since Gail stepped out of her comfort zone and started a linky, well...
you know I can't resist a linky.

So I figured out how to record stuff with my webcam.
Dash and Miss Fab were hanging around waiting for their storytime... so i invited them to join in.
Like I said, I must be nuts.
Watch the vlog and you'll see what I mean.

So any of you "foreigners" want to hear our strange Kiwi accent...?
Your wish, granted.

Any of you fellow-mothers want to see what I am up against every day with my crazy silly bunch of extroverts...?
Your wish, granted.

If you usually avoid vlogs like I do... just watch it anyway...
And giggle.
♥

Linking up my silly Vlog with Gail at Delightfully Diva-ish In China

    That's hilarious!! (And precisely what would happen if I attempted a Vlog anywhere near my children... precisely, I tell you!! (Dash and my boy are about the same age!))

    'Cept I'd have an accent mix - me with my Canuck accent and the kids with their kiwi accents. ;)

    This absolutely made me smile. I think your accent is beautiful! As is your family. ♥

    PS: I introduced my best friend to your blog a few days ago, and she is an avid reader now. She posts links to you three times a day on her FB page. She's not a blogger, so we'll consider her a lurker for now. But if you ever get a witty comment from a young lady named Jenna, that's her. :)

    Ha! So I'm a lurker, am I? Yes, Abby did introduce me to your amazing blog and I've been hitting "share" pretty much constantly.

    Loved the vlog; I think I just got a glimpse of my future. ;-D

    If I vlogged with my son, he would probably burp through it! (yes, he taught himself how to burp on demand)

    Loved it! It was like catching up with a friend over a hot chocolate complete with our fab crazy/burpy kids ...aww the sweet life of a mum!
