Nic - hope she is better soon and it is nothing serious, my 2 always get sick on public holidays as well, usually easter though.

Well I am packing bags here, off this afternoon on our normal big trip Sydney-Yass-Forbes-Tamworth-Sydney all between now and 4th Jan, and the flat needs to be spotless as we are having friends stay here while we are away (saves them Sydney accomodation costs whilst they are on holidays). I let the girls open most of their presents this morning with just one present to open at mum and dad's on Christmas day and the Santa presents which of course have not technically arrived - Maria lets me know everyday that she will get her Santa present when the little baby jesus is born - very cute.

Sofia is enjoying the boxes and paper and has taken to 20minute powernaps, not good when I have a hundred things to do between now and 2pm

merry christmas everyone
