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

Ha ha loved it! Especially the kids being totally crazy whenever they know there's a video involved...they had me giggling all the way through. So so nice to finally put a voice to the lovely Simone xx

Broot said...

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. ;)

Haha, boys will be boys, right? Loved hearing your Kiwi accent. I have relatives in New Zealand - you guys speak so beautifully.

Gail said...

Hahahaha. Yes, they do get it from their father!! Of course when the kids heard your two they came running to the computer- and Miss O is keen to do her own vlog!!

Thanks for the linky hook-up friend. Missing ya.

We do have lovely accents. It's cause we drink tea.xxxx

Tune in next week for another G-log.

Rebecca said...

haha thats what my kids are like when someone skypes!! Looking beautiful Simone!

Unknown said...

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. :)

Heidi said...

Love it! I shouldn't have watched it at work though, it was really hard to keep from laughing outloud!

Catching the Magic said...

LOVE!!!! You are so amazing and brave! This is hilarious, fun and so REAL! And I want your hair! And whilst I'm at it your teeth are crystal too :)

So much fun! Well done! You deserve a 'Gold' mothering award for surviving in a crazy house ;)

Jenna said...

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

Jen said...

LOL
I use to have a friend in the USA whom use to vlog regularly she wouldnt tell her kids every time therefore she didnt have to content with crazy kids :):) :)

still yours was fun :)

your hair looks great :)

Renee said...

Hahahahahahaha I love it!!! How infectious is Miss Fabs laugh - my girls were sitting here in hysterics and Miss 3 (I must think of a more original name) keeps asking me to play it again - so you're all stars!

Elizabeth said...

Haha - gorgeous! LOVING your hair!

Angela said...

Your hair looks amazing. The end.

Mika said...

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!

Unknown said...

Oh Simone! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! Ms Fab's giggle is totally contagious... I LOVE IT! And Dash, what a boy! You guys just made my night.
