Pappa's birthday today
Shawn's birthday was celebrated with lots of presents (such as a much needed new printer) and of course a homemade cake. And not any cake, a Winnie the Poh cake! Anything to stay young at heart!

Happy Easter!
This weekend we have had visitors from Bunbury, our friends Emma & Steve. We got to meet their daughter for the first time, little Evie, that was born 364 days after Noah! Noah loved to have guests and shared both toys and food with 3 months old Evie haha. We have had a lovely weekend together, spending all Saturday in Fremantle at the Fremantle Arts Festival and this morning a late long breakfast in the garden.
This afternoon after the Todd family departed, mamma & pappa had a drink in the backyard whilst Noah had a play in his pool.

End of summer
At the end of the summer it always gets busy with the winding up of the cricket season. Outside cricket dinners, BBQ's and such, this year there have also been baby shower, birthday parties, hens & bachelor nights and wedding.

After months of just playing with his spoon during meals, 29 March Noah decided to change things around a bit and put the spoon to good use.

Pictures as promised...
16 March. Relaxing in the new bean bag watching Bamse.
22 March. Too cool for school...
Later that day at the cricket. This is where the sunnies had been handy!
24 March. Munching on yummy grapes in Kings Park with the new harness on."Mum, don't take pics when I have my mouth full!"
A month without the internet
After a month we are now up running with the internet again.
We have settled into the new house and are enjoying the large living space. Before we moved I was wondering how it would feel to move to "suburbia" and away from the hustle of the city life. I felt that maybe we would feel that we would live too far away from everything and not be getting out and about as much as before. But I found that I'm really enjoying living in a quiet residential area (with no traffic at night), the relaxing evenings out on the patio as well as entertaining when there is room for everyone! And the shops are just minutes away anyway so life is pretty much the same, just better :-).
Noah has learnt his way around the house as well. At first he got lost and when he couldn't see us, he thought we had left him alone in the house and got really sad. He now has his own bedroom as well as a large playroom which he loves! He happily goes in there and sits down and play with his toys and reads his books.
The large living areas has also helped him develop his walking and he is now a very confident little chap and walks everywhere. We now have to use a harness (a gift from mormor & morfar) so that he doesn't run away when out in public.
Other than getting used to the new house, we have been keeping busy with Shawn being back at university, my ENJO business, Noah's regular activities, birthday parties, hens night and cricket finals. The boys lost in the semi final which means that there is no more games for this season. As much as it is sad that they didn't make it to the final at the WACA this year, I'm honestly a little thrilled to have Shawn all for myself again (sharing with Noah of course hihi).
Pictures from the last weeks will soon be coming...
