I'm Back

<
I bought Erina this swing - so cute! Mummy, Daddy and Baby at the park. My beautiful girl - Alexandra Rose. Daddy, William and Manny.

Sorry I've been away so long - resting after a tooth extraction. Not a pretty time. Never mind back with pictures for you. Here are a couple of the Beautiful Erina Isabelle at home. She's growing fast and is up to a whopping 6.5 lbs!!! She's doing well and so is Christa and Stephen. She is now over a month old - almost 5 weeks to be precise.




A couple of pictures taken Sunday 25th November at the GAP (Greyhound Adoption Program) Christmas Party at Capalaba Race Club. Manny was in the finals of MR GAP 2007 but was pipped at the post by a taller bloke - he's too short to be a supermodel. The kids had fun showing him off in a few competitions - smiliest dog, best looking, waggiest tail (he doesn't wag his tail much but while William was leading him around Alexandra was moving his tail! And of course he made it to the top 3 out of about 20 dogs for Mr Gap 2007. I recon he should have won but I'm biased.




It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!!!!!!!!!!

ONLY 4 WEEKS TO GO!!!!!!!!!

I love christmas especially the decorations. I have started putting a few decos around the house and have finished one tree, the wire one with exquist glass and mercury decorations. It looks lovely even if I do say so myself. The HUGE picture of Santa Claus is actually a Hobbytex picture done by my lovely mum about 30 years ago - I always remember it hanging outside the front door on the veranda. I feel so special that mum decided to give it to me. She put binding around the edges and did the rope etc and presented it to me on Sunday. I was so happy I could have cried. Mum has passed down alot of christmas decos to me as they only put up a 4ft tree nowdays. My plan is to put our 7ft green tree up in the lounge with red and green decorations (no tinsel hate tinsel!!!) and so the front room also has red and green santas and decos in there. Moving through to the family room I am putting up our new pink christmas tree - and that room will be very "shabby" being cream, white, aqua, pink and pink!! We are putting up the trees on Sunday (if I can wait that long). I might have to do them Friday instead.

WELCOME HOME ERINA!!!

Welcome to the world Baby Girl - this is Daddy's wedding ring on my fingers.
Help - I'm yellow!! Poor darling had 3 treatments to get rid on her jaundice. Poor little Girl.
Stop posing Dad and let me out of here - I want to get dressed.

Very proud Nanny.

Welcome home Erina. About time too. Erina Isabel McCarn came home on Saturday 3rd November with Mummy and Daddy. She is settling reasonably well as any newborn would. Erina is up to 2400g which is wonderful. Nanny loves seeing her baby granddaughter and makes her think of when my two were babies. Erina better get loads of cuddles and kisses as it's going to be 7 weeks before she sees Nanny again, this time with a very excited Granddad at Christmas time.
