Love, bubs and life on our little farm

Our new little Aussie wearing green and gold


Swimming on a boiling hot day - was apparently 99% humidity. The water was the best place to be!


Elka's first play in a kiddie park and her first go on a swing!


All worn out on the way home!



We had a lovely weekend which included some lazy fish and chips, shopping, swimming, going for coffee and caramel slice (yum!) and relaxing in front of DVDs. We also did some recon on a location for my bday family get-together, which is coming up in Feb. I have decided I want to go for a High Tea at a nice Gold Coast hotel. we checked out the Sheraton Mirage - top points for location and view but minus points for a lame menu that mainly included cheese (I dont eat much cheese due to lactose intolerance). Next one to check is the Hyatt Sanctuary Cove... I am looking forward to splurging on yummy cakes and goodies :) that is what bday's are for!

Elka also chose Australia Day to cut her third tooth - its a top one (her first top one!) but its not the front ones - its one to the side on the right. Wasn't the place were I was expecting the next one! She was pretty clingy and sooky but her sleep was still OK. We have started "battering down the hatches" around the house - moving things and putting up a baby gate to keep her out of the bathroom and the cat food bowls etc. She has also learnt to go from crawling position to sitting up and is pulling herself up on us so we have lowered the cot now. Gosh she is becoming a big girl!

Things are pretty quiet around here now - all my mummy friends have gone back to work now and its only 4 weeks until I do to! How the time has flown...
