It’s like waiting for Santa

Meegan and Rob are just about to get on their plane (2 hours early, thank you very much Virgin Blue!!) to come visit us Harbey’s (as Owen pronounces it) and I CAN’T WAIT!! We have all been counting down the sleeps until the MacLor’s finally get here, and today is the day :o)
Owen and I [...]

6 sleeps and counting

We are so close to moving into our new home, that I’m counting down the sleeps already! OK, well that may not be entirely true (sorry Marc!).  I was counting how many night nappies I had left at Nana’s place for Owen for the rest of our stay in Brisbane.  Would you believe I’m short [...]

A Long Weekend

To celebrate being officially over the hill Meegs took us away for a surprise long weekend. After being picked up from the airport on Friday afternoon we started heading North. We ended up at Noosa Rise Apartments for a three night stay. Now usually this would have been a great weekend anyway. [...]

Morning Person

It’s way to early to be blogging, but what else do you do at 5:30am when Owen is bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, ready for a Saturday of fun with Sean and Karla?  I’ve already tidied the kitchen and put a load of washing on. 
That’s enough housework for this early hour on the weekend.  
He could be excited because we are [...]

2 new movies

After not having been to the movies for a while, it was strange to visit the cinemas twice in a matter of days – and not even to see a kids movie!  As a bonus I got to spend time with the Girls, eat out at two delicious resturants and have a couple of great nights out.   
1. Juno [...]

Cindy the Dog and a new toy for the Boy.

Apologies for our blogging and email absence.  We’ve just spent a few days with the Cindy The Dog (Joyce and Gordon too!) in Roma. 
If you ask Owen, we went to see Cindy, at Cindy’s Place. 
Joyce and Gordon were just there as well. 
At Cindy’s Place…!

 So here’s a picture of Cindy and Owen, before Nana and I went [...]

Pop goes the Wiggles

Today we took Owen for his second Wiggles concert.  Last year Meegs took a very still and watchful Owen to see them perform at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre.
This year was very different.
Owen was dancing, singing, yelling and generally getting very involved in the show.
Amelie was very helpful, pointing out anything that Owen might have missed.

These [...]

Gooooooooo Meee-eeeen!

Last night we took Owen out to see Meegan 2 play in her team’s netball semi finals.  It was bound to be a great game from the start, with the current Number 1 ranked team (I don’t know their team name, sorry) against Number 2 (the Bullets, Meegan’s team).  We were treated to an action packed game that went in [...]
