Swimming lesson one.... complete!

Turns out Tyler loved the pool! Wasn't sure as we only have a shower so he hasn't experienced being in water like that since he was very young. I was also worried that he'd get sick of it - half an hour is a long time for him to be doing the same thing... but I think he could have lasted longer! They just sang nursery rhymes while doing activities, the instructor was great :)

We weren't allowed to take cameras in thanks to those disgusting people who do the wrong thing... but I managed to sneak a few on Simon's phone (sssshhhhh)! If you have trouble finding him - just look for the whitest baby there!!

See what I mean?!

They were doing 'Humpty Dumpty'

All done :)

Tyler has started pulling himself up on things over the past few days... now I have to move more stuff! It's so exciting when he discovers something new :) He is also getting his top teeth which seem worse than his bottom ones, can't wait for them to be through and I bet he can't either!

Tyler's professional photos...

These photos were taken about one month ago 

 

there were more photos but these were the cream of the crop! They were taken by GOTCHA photography... won't be using them again!! The photos are gorgeous but they are unprofessional to deal with. They are expensive for one, second we had to send 5 photos back that had black spots on them, third they said the disc would have all the photos on it and there were only 13 (less than half) and fourth I sent them an e-mail 3 days ago and haven't even gotten a confirmation reply! Chrish I reckon you could do way better :)

Update... finally!

Okay so here it goes... tried to post last week but got annoyed as the photo I was trying to put up wouldn't go the right way!

Life doesn't consist of much more than my son and being a homemaker these days, don't get me wrong I love my role, but do miss the person I was sometimes. I'm sure most Mums understand :)

My little man is going on 8 months soon... oh how time flies! He has two teeth now and is not far from crawling :) It is soooo hard to change his nappy now  (lol) he just doesn't want to lay on his back for more than a second when he has better things to do! This is a photo I took today of his little teeth

he has had his first one for nearly 4 weeks now and his second for 3 weeks but they still have a way to go! They are soooo sharp - no more chewing on my fingers!

Aside from that we have made a decision to move to Sydney between June - August 2012. I really don't want to leave our home and the lives that we have built here but I do desperately want my children to know there Grandparents, Aunties and Uncles. Skype is great but doesn't quite cut it! Plus I miss family and the difference it makes having their support. I just wish they would all move over here :)

Simon is doing great in his job and still loving it which is such a great blessing.Tyler starts swimming lessons next Saturday which Simon will be doing with him. I am kind of nervous and excited... guess it seems like a big step to me lol.

We have beautiful weather over here at the moment and we are appreciating the outdoors a lot more because if it! So that is life for us at present...

Will try and blog about Tyler's first swimming experience :)
