a big Happy 9th Birthday to Dylan my nephew in Australia, we will give you a call tonight!

Happy Wedding Anniversary to Albert and Jean - 53 years married!

Alexander is enjoying morning kindy, he does get very tired towards the end of the week, so I've been collecting him up to an hour early until he settles into the much longer hours. We have been getting more paintings and some very interesting woodwork, he just loves to play with the cordless drills, wood, nails and screws!!!

Alexander started Morning Kindy this morning!!!!
He goes from 8:15am till 12:30pm everyday now, and I have to send him with a little packed lunch too.
He knows alot of the kids as they were with him at the afternoon sessions, so he was quite happy this morning when I dropped him off. I'm sure it will take a bit of getting used to as we are most defiantly NOT morning people. Next week Daddy will drop him off on the way into work and I'll collect him him at lunch time.



my little baby is growing up so fast!!!!

Poor Alexander has been sick with a tummy bug - Tues/Wed!!! He vomited at kindy on Tuesday afternoon, I thought he might have just gotten over excited, but he promptly did it again all over the couch when we got home, poor thing! I fetched him a bowl and after that he just sat there and held the bowl under his chin when he was sick.


I has to strip the cover off the couch and get it into the washing machine and in between tending to Alexander and getting the washing on the bloody dog chewed and ripped bits off the foam inner of the couch that was outside drying!!!!
LOOK!!!!!


He had a pretty restless night on Tuesday, well we all did, I slept in his bed with him for the first part of the night, he must have been pretty groggy at one stage as he asked me if he was dieing!!!! and then asked if it was snowing outside. Poor Baby.

He is back to his old self today mind you....yippee!

David and I just love these two, Karl Pilkington and Ricky Gervais.



ohhh these guys are the best....I tell you!
An interview with Ricky Gervais, Steve Merchant and Karl Pilkington.

After many many years of having my hair the same way, I'm going to get it cut today! I need to be dragged into the 21st century finally!!!!

Ive gradually been cutting it shorter and shorter, and a week ago I cut it into a bob length (short) and today I'm going off to the hair dressers to get it styled to something I can do myself and keep up. I'm sure its going to be a bit of a shock to some people as I've always had long hair, but I'm so totally ready to do this!!!!



ok...and this is what I like.....but im sure ill come back with it different though.


ok..well im back....here you go!!!!!


next time I get a trim in going to get her to step it up a bit more on the back, like this....but im totally thrilled and so wish id done it sooner!!!!

Alexander has chosen two pairs of undies for his next reward chart....I've printed it off and stuck it on the bedroom door for him.


and here is his finished one complete with stickers.. :-)

I've put his finished one away in his memory box, with the date on it.

After 10 or more days Alexander has finally earned his reward, the (horrible - well Mummy thinks its horrible) hooded spiderman top he wanted. He was so chuffed this morning when we gave it to him. I'll make up a new reward chat for him today, and he can work for the spiderman undies next.

He has done pretty well, and there has been a few days where he didn't get the stickers, so all in all I think its working.
