News

I know its been a long time since we were last on here (about 9 weeks) so an update on our lives is in order.

The big news is that Marcus is now going to be getting a sibling. Shelley is due in mid-March, which is very exciting. WE've told Marcus that mummy is growing a baby in her tummy. We're not 100% sure if he knows what we mean, but a great friend of ours has sent a book that helps to explain it. Marcus likes the book very much.

Marcus is really into trains at the moment. He's discovered in the last 3 days Thomas the Tank Engine, and unbelievably (or maybe it is believable to the other parents of toddlers) he now knows all the characters and what they do. So we're now buying Thomas books and engines and he noticed something on tv for the first time - an ad for a stage show of Thomas in Wellington later this month!

Shelley's off to Dunedin this weekend for a well earned break. It'll be the first time she's ever been away from Marcus so it'll be a test, particularly of her faith in me!!! It'll be okay, as Marcus will only be able to eat pizza for 2 days ;-)

I'd love to say more, but I really need to get to bed. I promise to put more photos up this week.

The tulips are in bloom at the moment and we all went and visited the gardens to see them last week.
