A Baby Mc Update......

To my lovely friends and family waiting on the news of the arrival of Baby Mc, well all I can say is that the time is nearly here! I am currently 38 weeks pregnant, and have been informed by my doctor that I am having a giant baby and that if bubs does not come by itself within the next week, that I will be induced on the 5 January 2008.


Not that I particularly like my photo taken at the moment, but I thought that this bubs deserved a side view shot, because I never had one taken before Harrison was born - being a month early with Harrison, we never got a chance to have the horrid shot done!!!!

I feel much more exhausted, tired and bigger, than what I ever did with Harrison, but possibly the wonderful festive season has not helped that too much!

So all I can say is watch this space for Baby Mc news, because it seems that it is now less than a week for when baby Mc will enlighten us all with its wonderful presence.

Wish me luck - quick and painless is the words I like to hear!!!!

Christmas Morning - Yes Harrison got Henry.......!

As mentioned in my previous blogs, all Harrison wanted for Christmas was a 'Henry' train from Thomas the Tank Engine, which Santa happily obliged, and honestly no other toy on the morning got a look in!

We possibly made the big mistake of allowing Santa's present to be opened first, because hidden in Santa's loot was not only 'Henry' but 'Molly', 'Skarloey' and 'James'. That is four trains to add to his Thomas the Tank collection!

Not even the lure of a trampoline, a bike, cars, trucks or books could get him away from his new train collection. The below photo was taken when Harry gave his new trampoline about 2 minutes attention. Mind you, a few days after Christmas and we can now not get him off the Trampoline!!!!

S A Brewery Christmas Lights 2008

A couple of weeks ago, we took Harrison, Tre and Mum to the West End Brewery Christmas Lights (Hindmarsh SA).


Considering it is summer, surprisingly we all needed to rug up in the good old winder jumpers for a cool but clear evening checking out Christmas lights.

It is amazing how packed out with people it gets, and we all kind of felt like sheep being herded into a pen. Harrison loved it though!!!!

A family shot - don't know why my mum felt she needed to give me extra room in the photo though....... must have felt my 'wide load' needed the extra attention!!!! ;-)

This is a great shot of two very adorable cousins........

This is a great shot of Nan with her "boys" - don't worry mum, ill get a copy of this one for you - finally a photo where you all have a lovely smile!

I had to include the snow man - seriously, can this thing look any more creepy? The only think more scary was the 'Jack In A Box' that looked more like the clown out of Stephen Kings book "IT".

Lots of Santa Visits......2008

Well tis the season to be Jolly, and what better way than lots of Christmas parties for Mr Harrison and lots of visits to tell Santa what he wants for Christmas. Each visit was the same, there was no changing his requests - Harrison has asked Santa for a 'Henry Train' to go with his Thomas The Tank Train track that he got for his birthday.

Below is a picture of Harrison taken at the Entertainment Centre staff Christmas party, this was the first trip of the year with Santa, he was nervous, but still managed a forced smile for the camera!!!!

Next we had the social club Christmas party from my work, and since it was held at the Aquatic Centre, I think Santa got a soggy knee from wet children by the end of the day!!!

This photo was luckily taken about 20 minutes before Harrison fell over his new toy, and put his top teeth through his bottom lip - blood everywhere sent us into a panic, but after it all settled, and he was given an ice block, he was a little happier. An afternoon nap in the car on the way home seemed to make it all better!!!!

OK, now this is the official Christmas photo taken with Santa at Myer, we had a lovely Santa, who was a little surprised that Harrison wanted nothing more than a 'Henry Train' for Christmas - I guess a store Santa is used to big demands from lots of children!

The day before this photo was taken, Graham thought it would be good to try out the new hair clippers we got given (Thank you Leanne and Barry!!). Well now my lovely little boy looks like he has as much hair as he did the day he was born - bald bald bald!!!!! Oh well a buzz cut looks kind of cute, ill get used to it, and it will grow back soon!!
