Blowing bubbles on a windy day

Marc has just been telling me that we need a polarizing filter… and then you would be able to see the colours reflected in the bubbles and the sky would be bluer… I was pretty impressed with the sky as it was :o)

Hospital Visit #4 – just another thing to add to the list…

Today Owen and I spent three hours at the hospital, seeing the midwives and the doctor, having blood tests and the glucose tolerance test for gestational diabetes.  This was supposed to be a quick visit – just having to wait an hour for the glucose test and we were outa there.  No such luck unfortunately… [...]

Visitng hours are over. For now…

It’s 7:37am.  We have not long ago waived goodbye to our departing visitors, and waived Dad off to work for the day. This little voice beside me says, “Mum, I want Mia and Pa to come back”. We have had a whirlwind 5 days with Mia and Pa (Marc’s Mum and Dad). Owen has had [...]

Pre School – NSW Style

Since Owen is turning 3 on Saturday, we thought it about time that we investigate going to what us QLDer’s call Kindy, or at least a day care centre maybe a couple of days a week, just so he gets used to the whole school routine and has an opportunity to make some friends down [...]

It’s nice to get an email that so obviously would be an automatically generated email, but it still made me smile :o) I hope the produce is a good as the email.  Will [...]

It’s Freezing… Literally!

I went to get in the car this morning and there was a heap of condensation on the windscreen.  No problems I think, I’ll just turn on the wipers.  Nope, that didn’t work.  Maybe it’s on the inside somehow?  Nope, nothing there.  Must be on the outside, hang on that’s ice.  Took me ten minutes [...]

The Three Sisters

We got to do some sight seeing today in the Blue Mountains.  These are just a couple from today.  Meegs was expecting more from The Three Sisters, much like me when I saw them last year.  O just wanted to find a park to play in, so we didn’t get a chance to explore too [...]

At last…

We have finally got the internet connected at the New House, as Owen still calls it. So back to posting regularly, posting photos again and keeping up with everyone’s blogs and my emails! Here’s a few photos from the last few weeks to keep you amused while I get together some decent things to write [...]
