Lately

This little monkey was a bit proud of himself for getting up on his chair! 



We spent a morning the other week in the garden with the dogs running round, Cadell loved that and was a little bit sad that he couldn't chase after the dogs! Won't be long before he is though...


Its been a funny week as Matt has been off sick all week. I find it difficult to stick to my usual schedule when he's home, so I don't feel like everything has got done. But that is ok. Matt's birthday tomorrow, not sure what we are doing for it yet, maybe go out for a later lunch (after Cadell wakes up from his nap) and not too much else as he is still not 100%. 

Only 1 more week (next week) of school, and then the following week I will work 1 day and the other 2 days Cadell will stay in Daycare and I have a long long list of Spring Cleaning/Decluttering to get done. I have started on it a tiny bit already as there is so much I want to get done. The week after that, I have the full week off work and Cadell is not going to daycare. Mum and Dad are going to visit, and the backyard renovations will be underway.  We had a little look at pavers and turf this morning, and Matt is looking into all the options of what we want to do out there.

It is going to be a busy couple of weeks/month. I can't believe it will be christmas in a few short months. I'm feeling a little less under pressure this year though, we are going to Stanthorpe for Christmas and not going up to Rocky until January, for a combined Christmas/Selwyn's 70th.
It will mean I don't have to stress about getting all the gifts before Christmas, and might even be able to get some in the sales after Christmas! Which would be nice, definitely want to save money. I would also like to have a look into doing some handmade gifts, I have been looking at pinterest for some ideas. I really want to make some time to start using my sewing machine properly!

Beach

Our trip to the beach at Redcliffe this weekend.

18 months old

Our little boy is a year and a half! Time is flying by at the moment. So far, he hasn't been saying too much, but I think he has been trying to say a few things such as 'truck' and babbling in his own lanaguage. He also says 'Yeah' when we ask him something and its something he wants! He is understanding so much now though. We can ask him questions and he definitely knows what we are saying and what he wants/doesn't want!! if we ask him 'where's your tummy/nose/mouth/etc' he will find them and point. He is running everywhere, loves kicking balls around the house + outside, although when he is outside he seems to prefer to explore, try and dig with a little shovel, and play in water! He is fascinated with spinning around at the moment, I think he likes the dizzy feeling he gets!

Daycare

This week has been a funny week, I didn't go to work at all on Monday as Cadell was coughing so much he was vomiting and just generally not well so I didn't want to send him to daycare. On Tuesday he was still not well, so I took him to the Doctors early, and he gave us antibiotics for two inflamed ears. He said he was ok to send to daycare though, so I took him to daycare where there was a new person looking after him. I wasn't too happy about leaving him, he was upset and I didn't like to leave him with a new person when he was already unwell and upset. But I had to go to work. Wednesday I was feeling sick but I went to work, I phoned daycare at lunch and they said he was upset and not eating so I left work and went to take him home. So today I am full of cold, Cadell seems a little better but still not eating well so I am going to make him pancakes for morning tea when he wakes up to see if he will eat them. I think Cadell and I have been sick on and off for ne...
