Floriade 2009

We went for a lovely walk through Floriade today. Molly was such a little model with all her photos. We got stopped by people who thought she was so cute. Molly loved all the attention that she received, Oscar layed in the pram and slept most of the time but enjoyed the sun and the fresh air.

Hopefully our huge walk around floriade will make Jacob arrive. Molly is over waiting for him.

We took molly back to a few of our spots that she had photos done at last year to compair how much she has grown. We also found a few new spots to get really nice photos of our princess.

Oscar smiled

Oscar is a healthy 5.6 kgs and wears a triple 0 clothes at only 5 weeks old.

Last Sunday night after Dan got home from work, he had to do a test run of the beep test so we could see how his training was coming along. It only took 4 attempts and about 100 excuses but he made it to 7.5 which is the requirded level for entry into the army. Molly stood at the back door and every time Dan ran past the door she yelled DAD and clapped her hands. She made such a good cheer leader I think that is why Dan made it to 7.5. Now we know he can run that fast no more excuses can be used.

Last night was the first night that I had out with no children.

The motbey girls went out to Dendy to see the movie the Soloist. We all highly recommend that you see it, probably not the best movie for guys. When we got to the movies as we hadn't been to the preimum cinema before we had a lovely suprise that they sell real food in there. We ordered the beer battered chips, salt and peper squid, chicken tenders and the trio of dip platter. They send the food to you in the cinema at the times that you choose so not to get all the food at once. The chairs recline back into a laying down postion which is really comfortable.

They also serve alcohol in there which makes for a really nice change for you standard soft drink.

After the movies we went out for coffee. Like real adults.

I am so booking in to do that night again. It was nice to feel like a normal woman for once.

and yes i did almost leave my handbag there as I am so used to having my nappy bags. Thanks Ren for reminding me I had no nappy bags but a hand bag.

We recieved our first wedding present this week. G.G, Nan J, Papa Smurf and Aunty Lara brought us a heated towel rack. Molly and Oscar have loved having nice warm towels to wrap themselves up in after their baths.

The big L word

Today we have been cleaning up the back yard and started working on the front. We finally filled Mollys sandpit. After all the work was done and it had gotten to dark for us to work any longer, we came inside. After Dan had bathed Molly and dressed her in her pjs she surprised us both when she climbed up onto the couch and sat on Dans lap and said love dad. When we pulled out the camera she refused to say anything. Hopefully in the next couple of days we will catch it on film.
