Hudson after he received his award! Will take a photo of it later and upload!
Well after a computer crash and losing all email address and photos I went out today and brought a new laptop.......
I have not yet uploaded all the software for the camera so once I do I will update with a copy of Hudson and his award.

The kids are very happy that the old computer has crashed as now they think they have their own - only problem at the moment is my laptop is picking up their wireless mouse and keyboard and its causing major dramas!!! I have things popping up and moving everywhere LOL.

Soooo once I have this all sorted I will add the photo....... Not happy about photos as all photos have been lost including Chances and of Grans Furneral. I do have them on my iPod so now I have to figure out how to re upload them to the laptop - if possible.

Talk to you all soon

Well after one successful blog post and photo upload, I thought I'd try another!!!

We have spent the last couple of days with Fay and David which has been great. Miami and Fay are now best friends, Hunter had his first "Crying" attempt at Kindy yesterday as he wanted to go to nans and see F (as he calls Fay)!!

As as most of you know Treyden is our most non affectionate of the children, although he has improved over the last 6 months and his coming out of his shell. Even he was besotted with Both Fay and David, and Treyden was giving out Hugs and Kisses like nobodies business!!

It has also been a very expensive 3 days (well 12 months) for the tooth fairy! Hudson has now lost his bottom two middle teeth, along with the 6 he had taken out at Princess Margaret Hospital last December! Gummy bear now.....

Hudson is also getting a Honor Certificate at the school assembly tomorrow morning, so I will try and take a photo of him receiving it and upload it, if all fails I take a photo of him with it.

Myself and Chris yesterday gave ourselves medical degrees and removed Miami's stitch from her leg and it has healed nicely. Will be a little scar I think but as she grows it will look even smaller. So now I have my medical degree, Electrician Apprenticeship!! LOL.

Talk to you all soon. Keep Well.

And KEEP SMILING! :)

Hello Everyone,

Now please bare with me as I do these updates!! Never done a blog before let along with photos, so this could be interesting!!

As most of you know (most of you saw me!!) I went to Melbourne for a couple of days with dad, to sadly attend Grans funeral, although it was a very sad time for all the family it was a beautiful day and one Gran would of loved. It was so nice to catch up with all my Aunties, Uncles, Cousins (which I have been informed by my kids that they HAVE to meet them - the paper planes went down a treat!!), and all the people who knew myself and that I had a tribe of Children, although I have no idea who most of them where, it was so lovely to meet them as Gran had told them all about our family......, I will truly miss her and think of her everyday. She is now with Chance looking after him for me and they both will be always in my thoughts and forever in my heart.

Well School is back and Treyden and Hudson have started at the new school (Picton Primary). And to be completely honest, I have never seen both of them so excited about school, they clock watch of a morning and as soon as it hits 8.15am there out the door and running to school!

Miami and Hunter are both loving Djidi Djidi . Hunter has come on alot since starting and it even now explaining to us how you say "sounds" of letters!!

Our new house is close to completion.... YAY - All that is to do is Floor coverings, hot plates and Oven, Blinds, Gardens. DONE Whoo hoo, the builders are saying handover is the 15 November.

Simon is loving his job and being only 5 minutes down the road he often "pops" in for lunch. Which scared the hell out of me the first time!

Anyway I will now try and add some photos and get it looking like I know what I am doing.

I am catching up with my bridesmaid this morning -Lisa - whom I havent seen for nearly 8 years and then off to Mums to catch up with Aunty Fay (mums sister) and Uncle David, I havent seen many family for years and in the last month I have seen nearly all of them. Funny how it works.

I hope you are all well and enjoy!!

Hopefully I will be able to get this updated!! From time to time even the kids may have a little "story" to add - That should prove interesting.

I look forward to keeping you up to date and with PHOTOS!!

Keep Well.
