Happenings

Sorry for my lapse in posts. Life just gets busier and busier with a 16 month old. Lucy is going great guns! She is saying more and more words, knows more words and LOVES to try and sing the ABCs. She can sing "A B B B B"... : ) "c" is hard to say still. She also really enjoys a pram her cousin Gabe loaned her and pushing the "ba-bee" around. She gives it cuddles and pats the baby on the back.

The weather is horrible today. Allison and I did our long run today instead of yesterday. Luckily we made it out the door before the rain really set in. It was a good run!

We took Gran (Anne's mum) to the bus depot this morning. She is headed north to Tauranga for one of her granddaughter's wedding (Lauren). I was able to get some knitting tips from Gran which were much needed. Lucy and I went to the library this week and I stumbled upon some knitting books with patterns for babies and kids. I have since bought myself some knitting needles and yarn. I know, CRAZY! (I also bake a lot these days.) I seem to hold the yarn too tight. I have to give it another go.

Anne is back from her 5 week European vacation on Friday and Julia will be induced on Monday which is good. Anne will be able to rest some before becoming a grandparent again!

Ethan and Gabe spent the night on Saturday night. We went into Wellington and played on the beach for a bit and then watch some airplanes land and take off. We had a good time and they are very well behaved and fun to have over. Lucy loves spending time with them as well.
