Underwater World

On Saturday we decided to use the voucher that we had been planning on using since before Liam was born and go to Underwater World. We left early to get there when it opened pretty much, it took an hour to get there and we arrived at around 9.

Cadell was a little bit wary of getting too close to the exhibits at first, but loved looking at all the tanks with the different types of sea creatures.

His favourites were the barramundi and other freshwater fish, and of course he loved the water displays as water is one of his favourite things. I think he would have loved to get in with some of the fish!

The sharks were a bit scary, particularly the one hanging from the ceiling!! Daddy had to carry him past that one.

Liam did really well, very content in the pram while we walked around.

We had some fish and chips by the mariner for lunch afterwards, and Cadell and Daddy fed some chips to the fish and birds there while I fed Liam.

We left around 12:15pm, and I think Cadell fell asleep at 12:16pm, Liam was asleep in another 10 minutes also. We managed to leave Cadell in the car in the garage for some more sleep once we got home, as he hasnt been napping well and needed the extra sleep! It was a lovely day and was very worth going. Will definitely do it again in another year or so!

3d scan pictures

At 36 weeks we got a 3d/4d scan done, it was amazing to see the detail!

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!

13 months old

Today our beautiful boy is 13 months old! I can't believe how the time is flying. I think its only going to get worse! He is changing so rapidly these days, losing his baby look and becoming a little boy. He is so close to walking. This weekend he was attempting to take some hesitant steps to me or Daddy, and standing by himself for longer. He is still apprehensive though. Tooth number 5 is almost through, and tooth number 6 is on its way also. He is still sleeping great, 12 hrs most nights, and when we are at home at least a 2 hr nap. At daycare he isnt napping well though, which makes for a very tired and cranky little boy when we collect him. No real words yet apart from 'Mumma' and 'Dada', he does a lot of pointing and 'Dat' and 'Dere' especially when we are looking for birds which he loves. Hes waving, and we are currently showing him how to blow kisses. Dada has started putting him to bed occasionally, this came out of neccessity...
