Hi everyone,
Since my last report, our HOM group had an enormous turn-out for morning tea at my place - it was a tight squeeze! Fortunately it was a fine day weather-wise so some of the brave could play outside. One of the mums said she counted more than 35 people at one stage.. In all, 11 families were in attendance.
It was an excellent opportunity for the mums to chat and for the children to play.. when it was time for little people to have their day time sleeps, there was a mass exodus!
Noah, Zoe and Sophia will be celebrating their fourth birthdays in August, so it's a very exciting time in our house at the moment. They have just started pre-entry at kindergarten too, so it's all happening. I'll have an update on all of the above next month.
Until next time,
Bianca.

President's Report August 2009
The following is an edited excerpt from August's Mag.
Hi All,
Welcome .. I hope those with kindy and school-aged children enjoyed the school holidays. My two are still six months away from school but lots of their friends are starting to go and they can't wait to be "schoolers" too.
In this month's Mag we have lots of information about useful resources and feeding multiples.
There are books mentioned by members that are stories for children about being twins (are there any for higher order multiples? If you know of any, tell us!) .. In addition we have lots of information about upcoming events in September - including a Dads Night Out, the City-Bay fun run/walk and a Drop in Day (see previous posts on the blog for details of these events). It would be great to see as many members as possible at these events... they are great opportunities to meet with other families of multiples.
As a final reminder our next issue will be themed around Father's Day - do you have any photos or stories you'd like to contribute?
Take Care,
Anne.
