Hello!

Cally: your bedtime routine sounds a bit like ours lol. we have stories (2...for each Big Kid) and then they watch an episode of 'curious george' on youtube. and then the real dragging on the chain begins: water, toilet, kisses for everyone hahahaha. but that said, once they hit the pillow they are in bed and out. we aim for 7.30 but normally they are in by 8.

...but then there is Miss E...and well, that is a whole long night affair hahahaha.

Arte: oh no! you guys seemed to be settling in really well there (lovely school, nice place and a circle of friends)....is your DH happy in your current place? or is he kinda dreaming of being closer to folks?

MD: we are finally having some break from the hot weather...what about you guys? yesterday was a bit gross here with an out of control bushfire 3ks up the road. thankfully there was no wind as it is all just bush and scrub between it and our house. took until late last night for them to get it safe.

ikea does have the red coloured night lights! they are fabulous!
