Wet-stralia

I thought at this period of the year, I'd be sitting here writing about how we've just had (another) wonderful perfectly sunny blue sky day, around 31 degrees, sitting around the pool, playing with the kids and sipping away on a Jim Beam and Coke.

Nope.

Not today. It must be the 150th day in a row now (bar one or two) where its rained. The prime of summer and I've just had to and put a sweat shirt on to keep warm.

Getting Hotter and Wetter


We're all a little stir-crazy at the moment. It's been raining for about a week, with another week of rain predicted for next week. Its all rather soggy outside and I'm running out of entertaining things to do with William on the inside (as you can see!). On the "new acheivements" front, William is sleeping without a nappy now and has been for a few weeks.

Amelia is now sitting by herself and rolling over (but not back again yet). In this picture, she is modelling an outfit from Uncle Tony & Auntie Arlene - isn't she cute? So many outfits....so little time!!

We are also very close to finishing decorating the lounge - we bought a dining room table and some new curtains, which has given the room a whole new feel. Just need to put up some pictures and it'll be looking quite homely. We are almost ready for Christmas - we have the tree up, presents bought and cards (almost) in the post!
William is waiting for it to snow so that Santa can come and land on the roof in his sleigh.......I fear he will be waiting a long time.
