Easter has been and gone

Time still continuing to fly by. We had a great Easter with both sets of grandparents joining us in Omarama. Nana managed to find another singing bunny- she has a knack for that... We went to the airshow. Jemma found it really scary and Nana took her to the family tent to de-stress. A week later, we had a conversation a bit like this. "The spitfire was a bit noisy Mum. A wee bit scary. I didn't like it. Nana looked after me in the tent. Riley was scared too" So I don't think she is quite over the trauma yet.

Riley wore earmuffs and coped better with the noise but he too did not like the fireworks at the beginning. However, he talked about the planes for ages.. still is. We put lots of pictures in his special book and he knows the planes pretty well. Though today, the train set came out so maybe we will have a new/old focus again.

Jemma has found my make up container and she likes to bring the makeup out for me to open and her to put it on 'all by myself'. She then checks herself out in the mirror... can you imagine what she will be like as she gets older???? She coloured her toenails with black vivid on Sunday whilst watching Dr Seuss ABC on the computer. Unfortunately she also coloured her face and my office chair......

Riley had a 24 hour vomiting bug last week which thankfully didn't get shared with the family (touchwood) as it looked horrible and Mum is sick of washing bedclothes. Riley likes using his new word 'vomit' though.

We are counting down to our Australia trip. I have set up a folder in my favourites of where we are staying and all the places we are going so when we are bored, that fills in 3/4 of an hour for us. 46 days to go.....
