Frustrating Owen-bed hunting

Today we spent the morning looking for a ‘big bed’ for Owen to move into.  At least a few days a week he tells us that his little bed is too squishy for him.  And even though he isn’t that big, he sleeps like his Mum – wriggling and moving around all night, which needs [...]

In the clear!

So, after my three hour gestational diabetes test last Friday, I haven’t had a call back from the midwives.  Which, apparently is a good thing.  No news is good news, right?  In this case yes.  If I did have GD, they would have called me in to attend an information session and see another specialist.  [...]

Rinse and repeat

Yesterday was much the same as Monday for Owen and me.
Take Owen to pre school (he wanted to go an hour before we needed to), and then I was planning on spending the day getting the boring stuff done that I didn’t do on Monday.
My first job was grocery shopping, this was only going to [...]

Owen doesn’t need to go back to pre school tomorrow because he knows it all.  After one day…

The little boy isn’t so little anymore. It’s time for Pre School!

Today was Owen’s very first day of the rest of his at least next decade and a half – school.  Sounds like a long time, doesn’t it?  Well I’m positive it will go by in a flash for Marc and I.
As we were all getting ready this morning Owen went from I’M NOT GOING TO [...]

The MacLor’s have left the building

We took Meegs and Rob to the plane station today.  After an awesome three and a half days, we didn’t want them to go home – and they didn’t want to either!  There was lots of sleeping in, hanging out in our jammies and just veging out at home while they were here.  But we [...]

Meegs, Meegs and Owie

Owen and his Wob Mac

Me and my Meegs :)

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 [...]
