We all finally made it to the Royal Easter Show on Sunday. My vision was good enough and my eye not to painful, plus Karla and the girls were all well as well.
Travel was by car to Granville station then by express train to Olympic Park and the show. Luckily the trains weren’t overly busy and the girls were all in a good mood.
The crowds at the show were ok, except for the show bag and the main pavilion area’s. Jessie went on several rides and Sophie watched on happily. Jessie was still wondering if she was going to see the Easter Bunny as it is after all called the “Easter Show”. For the animals this year they had them all in a large barn roaming around freely, but you had to leave your strollers outside and as we had two of them packed with our gear, only Jessie and myself made it inside to see the animals and Karla and Sophie waited outside.

Hello from Pink Eye

My left eye was a little sore on Tuesday, but not to annoying, then by Wednesday night I was getting some blurred vision and with Karla telling me that I was going to the Doctors on Thursday morning to get it checked.

I really just thought I had some thing caught in it, but no I have to have conjuntivitis, yeah for me. So being contagious, I’ve been working from home for Thursday and today as well. Luckily no one else has caught it either.

We are still hoping to go to the Easter Show this weekend, but Karla still has her cough and Sophie has been a little congested as well. Jessie just powers along with nothing being able to stop her. I wonder if this is becuase she is never in the one spot long enough for bugs to get her.

If your on holidays hope you are having a great and safe time.

Easters been and gone and we want a do over

Well we’re all back at work now and the Easter break is over, it wasn’t really what we had in mind.

Sophie was sick from Thursday to pretty much Sunday, with being more herself on Sunday and Monday. She has decided now that she doesn’t like going to bed and wants to sit or stand in her bed crying out until someone comes and gets her. So we’ve had to just go back in at night and wrap her up and put her back down, doing this several times until she learns that she wont be brought out at night. Also with the change in Day Light Savings she has been waking up 5ish or earlier yah.

Karla also got quiet sick on Friday ~ Sunday, so she was out of action for most of the weekend, so no Birthday party, no Easter show on the Saturday or Sunday. I also got the bug on Saturday night / Sunday morning but luckily it didn’t last very long for me.

Miss Jessica was 100% ok during this time and hasn’t got sick, which is good, but meant she had all of her energy while everyone else was under the weather.

On Monday Jessie was invited over to the Stirling house hold for a play date with Sophie (Stirling) and the other girls from Daycare as Sophie (Sirling) is no longer there and missing her old friends. I stayed home with Sophie so we played in the lounge room and did stuff.

Then around 2pm I got a call from work as there were some problems, of course my laptop decided it no longer wanted to connect to work anymore and I would have to go in to the office to do anything. So Karla and Jessie had to come home and look after Sophie while I went in to work.

The end of a great weekend.

Happy Easter for 2010

Happy 1st Birthday Sophie

Our little girl Sophie is now a big one year old. Unfortunately she is still sick and is not really in a good mood for her birthday today.

So we’ll have to look at celebrating it when she feels better.
