Back on Track!

OK, we're back on track, at least that's the plan.

And then I realised that Christmas is just 40 short days away and I am nowhere near ready (even though I am not handmaking any presents this year or indeed building any - you know who you are, and yes, you make me feel quite inadequate!!! I just wish I had half your creative talents and needed half the sleep I am already NOT getting!), so maybe not so much back on track as running to catch the train, but ever hopeful!

So, a quick run down of the last month or so...

Nana has been here for a couple of weeks, we had a great time. The kids are sooo in love with her it's untrue. I got the same familiar feeling that I would never cope on my own again as she left. But, Flynn slept more then he had in the entire visit last night and I feel like a whole new woman now. Amazing what a block of four hours sleep can do for you! and to think I used to moan about not getting 8 hours a night - pah! I didn't know I was born!

We have booked our holiday back to the UK next year so we have something to look forward too (I think?! I am freaking out already about the journey, the traffic, the people, just about everything, you know me... I live to worry!), but I am so looking forward to showing off our two beautiful babies, it will be great.

We have found out that our dear friends in the middle east are coming home for a good month long visit in the new year and cannot wait to see them! So very excited.

Flynn has two teeth and is pulling himself up on the furniture (with a loud, weight lifters grunt, very funny!), not truly crawling yet, but getting about on his tummy, bottom and knees. He is enjoying his food - I don't think he has refused anything yet! and weighing in at a whopping 10.7kg and 77.5cm long already! oh yes, he is a big boy.

Molly is just adorable at the moment - and also terribly trying at times, of course! - loving her brother, making him laugh and egging him on with all his endeavours. She is really enjoying writing and drawing - her grasp of words and memory are a bit frightening to be honest, let's hope she keeps it up eh. And she is still totally into her ballet and dress-ups - where does she get this girly girlyness from?

Mmmm, not sure what else... wanna see a pic...?
