Ali - glad to hear Tori had a fun birthday. Good luck with the move and hope you get your internet on quickly!

Bath - how nice having the ducted heating under the computer desk! Nice way to warm the feet.

Tali - I have taken Chelsea to a Bunnings activity before and she loved it. They made masks. There was only 3 kids and DH and I got to sit and have a coffee right next door to where they were doing it. The usually advertise in the catalogues as to what activities are on. I can't believe its free!

7th - well done on your girls getting such good reports. I would have been the "mean mummy" too if my kids where playing in a building site, its not really a place for kids to be playing and a bit dangerous too. Gotta love the spare coins! DH has a big jar that he puts all his gold coins in, we often get over $100 out of it which comes in very handy.

IK - sounds like a fun day at the park. The weather was weird today, sunny for most of the morning, then dark and horrid! You need one of those stretchy cords on the back of Oscars pants to pull him back LOL!

Marley took 2 steps by herself today She was so very proud of herself afterwards, she fell down then sat up and clapped and giggled. Hopefully she will start to get a bit more confident now. We had lamb cutlets for dinner tonight and I gave her one of the bones with some meat on it and she devoured it! She ended up having 3 of them and virtually sucked them dry! Luckily they were the frenched cutlets, with nearly all the fat removed from the bones. She has never been a big meat eater but these were a big hit!
