Tom and Alex out for dinner!

We have just come home from having dinner with Alex, Bec and Graham! It was such a great time and I loved watching Tom and Alex interact!

Hope we can do this again many more times!

Still here.....

I haven't been on here for a while. I don't know why. Anyway, I am here now. I can't wait for the holidays. Not long to go now. I have just come back from a friend's house. Thomas and I had dinner there and he used a knife and fork properly for the first time!!!!! He had lasagne and salad AND ice-cream and a bread and custard pudding. It was priceless!

Been some time...


I haven't been on here for a while. Well actually, not for a month. It is Mick's birthday tomorrow and it was mine last Sunday. We had a good day last Sunday. We went to Pancakes on the Rocks at Northmead and then we went into the city. It is funny because I feel like I am writing a Year One recount of my day - this is something I have been focusing on with the Year One students at school.

We went to the Sydney Wildlife Park next to the aquarium. It was fabulous. Thomas will be going there for a playgroup excursion soon. It will be with his friends from the Shepherd Centre. I wanted to go there with him before he went with playgroup. My reasons were purely selfish but I admit that. I won't get to go with him during the week as I am working full time.

Thomas was in awe of many of the animals. He was fascinated with the butterflies as you enter the park. we saw many lizards and other desert creatures. Tom even had a photo with a python!!! Don't worry, his dad was there holding him while the python sat (or laid) resting around Mick's neck. Tom was not one bit phased!

Thomas and his Granny (my mum) had a photo with a mother koala. Mum loves koalas like I love wombats. Only difference is there were not any photo opportunities with a wombat. Will write more later and load photos on.

Here is a photo of Tom with his lawnmower - he got it for his second birthday back in February!
