Sail Away…

Here is some footage of Nick’s journey from South Australia. They are currently in Port Davey on the West Coast of Tassie – and homeward bound. We will be very pleased to welcome our sailor home!

On another note – little Poppy’s top teeth are giving her (and I) lots of grief. Last night she had a PB of waking every hour an a half – CRYING! My day at work today was quite a challenge to say the least. Poor little thing. I have brought in the back up tonight – Bonjella and Panadol. Fingers crossed. L x

Swanny

My dear friend Anja dropped this around for Poppy to ‘swan’ around in!

Come on Maisy!

Back to Reality :(

I don’t have a smiley, happy photo to share with you today as this week has seen some massive changes in our house-hold.  I have started back at work for three days a week! The reality of this change struck when I dropped Poppy off at child care on Monday morning, and realised it wasn’t

Before Nick left on his sailing trip, I filmed him playing Peek-a-Boo (it is the current theme around here).  Poppy has so much joy seeing her Dad on the screen each day!  x

Old School

My Mum made this top for me back in 1971!  The image is Hobbytex – can you remember that?  As quoted from their website:  “Hobbytex Ball-Point Painting is a unique, exciting hobby-craft enjoyed by Australians and fellow craft painters worldwide”!  I have been having a big clean out this week and sorting out all our cupboards.  I

Peek-a-Boo!  Poppy has discovered how to play with me!

Please excuse my ‘mum’ voice!

Happy Australia Day

Happy Australia Day!  Check out these printable “Bush Buddies” from the funky website Mooo.  They will certainly get you into the groove for Australia Day celebrations!  I love Emily Echidna! Nick flew out to South Australia this morning to help sail a yacht back with his uncle for the next 10-12 days, which is very

“Mill Farm”

We visted Mum and Dad on “Mill Farm” in Hagley at the weekend, which was great.  Poppy loved hanging out in the pool with her cousins Molly, Lucy (photo below) and Jessica.  Mum babysat Pops on Saturday night, and Nick and I went out to dinner in Launceston – it was so lovely to go
