MIA but back in action

WOW its been a pretty full on couple of weeks, I havent been able to sit down long enough to update my beloved blog, but Im back now and promise to keep you all updated.

Ive had 2 neices born in the last 2 months. Nathan and Rachel had a lovely little girl called Lily Rose born on the 24th of december.

Adam and Sarah had a gorgeous bubba Annabel Mylee born on 27th of January.

I've finally got some pink to spoil....cant wait, bit of a pink drought in my house at the moment.

Ive met my dear Annabel but havent yet met Lily which is disappointing but hopefully will see her soon.

My Cloth wearing Bubba

I didnt think Id love cloth nappies so much but that was until I learnt about MCN's or modern cloth nappies, they are the coolest things ever and Andy has a great supply of some very funky nappies, it also saves heaps of money and isnt that bad cleaning them. Im pretty stoked with the savings and everyone comments on his very cute bum.

My favourite nappies are the itti bitti d'lish and the CGR customs like the one above but the best news ever is that Ive been given a sewing machine and overlocker so I can now make my own. I cant wait to show them off.

3rd Anniversary

The 19th of January marked the anniversary of my dads passing. Not a day goes by when I dont think of him or wish he was here. Its also my mums birthday which is extra hard as she never wants to celebrate or have a cake or do anything. Its hard to be happy for her yet still be so sad for my dad not being here. He would have turned 60 next month, in June they wouldve celebrated 40 yrs of marriage.

He was called Dad, Pa Tezza, Dadda and tata salad.

This is how I will always remember my dad

The big move

The last month has also seen us move house. We were renting a lovely brand new place but it never felt like home, we werent allowed to put photos on the walls and I love my photos, we also had no privacy as the owners had a holiday unit attached to the main house. It never felt right. So when they said they were putting the rent up I looked elsewhere. I found an awesome house. 4 bedrooms, plus a granny flat for my mum. Heated pool, air con fireplace, spa, even a double shower in my ensuite, all on 5 acres. I was stoked. We moved in two weeks ago and love the place. It feels more like home and the best news of all is that is possible could become ours if things pan out this year as I hope they will. I'll just have to wait and see.....

Ill post some photos up very soon
