A couple of weeks ago Brett and a mate headed 635km north to a little town in NSW called Junee to pick up my Holden FB wagon (thanks boys). They left at 5.30am and decided to make the trip in the one day (crazy I know.) They didn't do too bad as Brett actually beat me home as my girlfriend and I headed out to see a Roller Derby Bout which was loads of fun. Anyway that's another story.
Here is a picture of the car on it's way home stopping at the famous Ettamogah Pub. Pretty good picture I thought?
The following day Isabella was busting to get outside and help daddy start to clean the car up. All we have heard since buying the car is "We need to paint mummy's hotrod yellow"? Anyway here is some of the dirt and leaves that they managed to get out. By the time they finished there was a huge pile and I believe there is still a lot more in the car?
Another lot of exciting news is that Piper has upgraded to a "Big Girls Bed". I am so excited to see her grow but at the same time so sad that she is not a baby any more :( We put her bed up before her afternoon nap (bad move), and she didn't want a bar of it. For the first 5 minutes she continuously got out of bed, put on her shoes and tried to open her bedroom door. We think she just didn't want to miss out on all the fun?
I was dreading her going to bed that night but she surprised us all by going to sleep on her own and has done so ever since. Not once has she gotten out of bed and in the mornings she just lies there and calls us to come and get her even though her bedroom door is open. She is such a little cherub.
This is her first night. We are so proud of our big girl :)
The end of May was Helen's birthday which we celebrated with a family dinner at Mum and Dad's place. All the kids had fun playing with each other, which doesn't often happen any more with Declan now in school as they use to catch up mainly during the week after playgroup. It's great to see that they can all get along as cousins and friends :)
Here are my latest 2 scrapping pages. Unfortunately I don't get many chances any more to scrap with working 3-4 nights a week. And when I do have the night off, all I want to do is sit down and vegetate in front of the TV. Not a good thing I know but my energy levels aren't the best at the moment.
Until next time.
