Presents!

This is my new camera smile. CHEEEEEEEESE!

Christmas Eve Dinner

Matt and Kelly Mum and Dad Nath and I Our table For the first time, Nath and I got to host Christmas Eve dinner at our new home. It was a close call with the dining table only arriving a few days before the night, but we made it. Being Uruguayan, we traditionally celebrate Christmas on Christmas Eve with a dinner and as per usual, there was enough food to feed a small nation! We'll be eating left overs for a week! Presents for the big kids were opened at midnight (another tradition) but Jake slept through it all and got to open his on the big day.

Happy Anniversary/Birthday to us/me!

December 6 saw our 4th anniversary celebrated at our new "local" restaurant. We took the baby and a bottle of bubbly and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Cheers to us! Love you husband!

Oh, and December 7, I turned 40.....no biggie (or at least that's what I keep telling everyone and maybe soon I'll believe them!!!!)

What a difference two and a bit weeks make..

So much has happened since I last blogged. In the blink of an eye but alas, not on a whim, we moved house. We have left Bondi behind, along with lots of lovely friends and support for me from my mother's group girls (I miss you guys heaps!!) and not to mention, the beach, the surf and the lovely afternoon sea breeze. But we luckily make up for it for all the new lovely space we have in our new home. Jake's loving it. He crawls (or cruises holding on - but still no walking on his own) from room to room exploring.

Here's some before pics with after (of the new place) to follow.
