Gosh we are a quiet lot these days...

Are we all busy running around after little people?

My cousin from Canada and her friend arrived last night, so we have two 18 yo pretty girls in the house. Aston ran around showing off all his tricks, because of course he thinks they are here just to see him, and Nathan got all coy and shy, Laura was busy getting herself organised for the Young Leaders Conference that she attending today (had to get up at 4.30am in order to get to Brisbane in time!) so was very "yeah - Hi..." My little girl is no longer - moving right into adolescence now. 6 months ago she would have been bouncing around much like Aston! now she far too grown up and mature to express excitement - that is way too uncool!

They are staying for three days. Thankfully they are happy to dos today. I have a filthy cold, and so does Aston, poor little guy. For all his bounding around last night - making me think he was on the improve - went pear shaped about midnight last night. I had to steam him in the bathroom with the shower running because he has developed croup! still very chesty this morning, so I'm taking him to the doctor as soon as we can get in. I hate that croup cough - its scary -you don't know which way its going to go... so I'm sitting in the bathroom last night praying that the steaming was going to help, otherwise it would have meant a trip to the hospital, and Laura missing out on going to her conference... On the joys of juggling three children. If only I could split myself in three sometimes - no make that four - one for DH too!

How you traveling Gigi? I hope you are feeling a bit better hun, and the fog has lifted, not settled in!!
