Okay Ladies...there is no way that I am going to be able to catch up on all the posts that I have missed since moving house and having no net. I am trying but if anyone wants to give me a brief overview, I would be eternally grateful. lol. I'm only up to page 12 of #41. Slack, I know.

Well for me...we're in our new place and are slowly getting settled. We had a house guest stay with us for a few weeks who has finally gone home so I can now finish off that room and completely organise myself. We got the computer, laptop, wireless, multifunction, house phone set up and next is the web cam (to chat to my mummy).
Nothing else new has happened to me. But OMG Sarah is advancing in leaps and bounds. She started climbing soon after we moved so I constantly find her on the kitchen table, or the coffee table and now on her bookshelf (little toy box built in under it). She falls off and still will climb back on. I admire the determination that shes got but by golly shes drivin' me nuts!
She still doesn't speak much (not in english anyway...just baby babble). She does this very cute thing where she sort of babbles with her tongue involved. Hard to explain but I'm trying to catch it on video. Really annoying though when trying to get her to bed and I'm losing by patience and she looks at me and does it. Makes me laugh whilst I pull my hair out. Shes running around now and loves going up and down the steps. Shes actually quite good and the front steps are normal and easy enough for her. The back steps however give me the heebie jeebies because it is concrete underneath and wider treads then normal.

I spent last night wrapping pressies and was astounded at what we have got her. We'd already given her some outdoor toys (slide, sand/water table and picnic table) as an early present because we had a mothers group get together here so pulled them out to entertain. Then she'll open tomorrow a Ladybug wheelybug, a personalised christmas story, a percussion table (xylophone, drums, cymbal (sp?) built in) and blocks from Boikido. Shes also got this really cute dollshouse shaped bookcase that we have to put together tonight. We had another thing for her as well, it was a table with storage underneath and two matching chairs, but have decided to hold off on that until her birthday next year. Spoilt little miss.

Although, speaking of spoilt, I did get a plasma for christmas. Its a joint present to Rory and me and came with a bonus Wii!!! Thats by redemption so have to wait to get that. We are also heading out when Sarah wakes from her nap to get a surprise gift for each other.

Anyhoo, I hope everyone has a fantastic Christmas with lots of presents and magical self cleaning houses. Everyone take care and chat soon.
