AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
I haven't been checking the thread because i haven't been getting any reminder emails!!! I can't believe I've missed some posts.
First of all, Congratulations to you Lara!!! I'm so very happy to hear that you had a "better" birth experience. I will read your story as soon as I'm done here.
SNOWY! I can't believe you are back! I was so glad to see your post. Huge congratulations to you aswell! What wonderful news that you are doing well and are expecting #3!! I'm really very happy for you.
Ben also got a kitchen set for Xmas (pots and pans and cups etc...) he loves making "coffee" for mummy and daddy. We are always having tea parties and making "cakes". lol. How is Zara going with her language skills? Ben gets confused alot, which is understandable. Lately it's between "Out", "Auf" and "Aus". He is doing well though. We have enrolled him into kindergarden for August. I didnt want to send him - but after a long conversation with Dh we thought it might be good for him to interact in German more.
Nadine - DONT get me started about the snow. We havent had any yet! I really really hope some comes before Winter ends, but i have given up. No snow last year, no snow this year. What is happening to the world
Narelle - I'm happy to hear that Cale is doing so well. 2kg in 4 weeks??? WOW!
Ok, now our update. Things are going well for us. Slowly, but good. We are still planning on moving back to Oz when Dh is finished. He has one year to go. We have alot to organize, and still have to figure out how we will be able to afford it. AND we have to organize a visa for Dh (and apply for Ben to become an Aus citizen), but hopefully it will all work out.
We had a lovely Christmas. A friend of ours from Australia stayed with us over the holiday period. New Year's was very quiet. we didnt have a babysitter for the night, so we just stayed home and watched TV (*yawn*).
Good to read a post from you again!
So cute Ben loves kitchen / cooking stuff. I am forever pretend-eating fries and peas and sausages
Zara's speaking is pretty mixed. She will say "Zara auch!" if she wants something too (that Wolf has usually) but most other things she says are in English. She says cute little 3-word sentences sometimes, other times I can't make out a single word she is saying. Not knowing which language she is speaking doesn't help I guess... Wolf was definitely better at talking at this age. I was watching a video of him the other day with DH and we were both stunned at how well he spoke. He especially enunciated much better than Zara. She mumbles.. .lol.. well, she will get there.. she is still drooling like a champion which is very annoying as I have to change her tops twice a day at least.
Anyway, better dash and bath the kids!! We just got back from my dad's 70th birthday and it's bed time!
