our month...

We have had a busy month here while off line...nothing overly exciting happening but it is good to update for my reference...
We had our fifth wedding anniversary on June 1st...Ben was away but Mum and I went out for breakfast with Evangeline and Morganne to celebrate!
Morganne turned 6 months old ( she is now 6 1/2 months)...and she is changing so much each day...

She has two teeth! She like fruit (banana, pear and apple) and will eat some veges like pumpkin carrot and parsnip...and I am trying to work on other things! She is almost sitting up by herself and I need to give her more time on her tummy! We bought a mat for the floor so now it is warmer and not so slippery for her to wriggle about on and start crawling. She is getting pretty clingy at the moment and cries if I disappear. But she still is mostly a very happy little thing. She has had another cold but is over that now. She is very curious about goings on around her and will crane her head around to see what is going on. She can use two hand to pick things up now and will try and get anything in her reach. My hair and glasses are fair game at the moment. She is about 9.1kg and 66cm long. I am still not sure what colour her eyes are going to be...but her hair seems to be getting lighter.
Evangeline is four and a half and going well and growing too...109.5 cm and about 20.8kg...clothes I thought were far to big this winter now fit her! She has had ear infections and a cough so has not been swimming. She has had a few play days with friends...at Whiteman Park, here and friends homes...And she had a dance recital....She is a busy beaver as always making and doing stuff and playing with Morganne...Ben came home a couple of weeks ago...We have had family visiting and Ace and Ike have both had sleepovers here...and been to visit Kaysie and Felicity...
We have been to friends places for fabulous meals...Eggs Benedict at Alli's....delcious...and a roast at the Albans...
I watched all the 6 seasons of Sex and the City having never seen it on TV, before going to the movies with some girlfriends last week. And I rather enjoyed it all. I am trying to get used to my new computer and new programs on it...And I have been busy gardening including planting the vegies...
Yesterday we went to Evangeline's school open classroom. It is great to see what work she is doing...And that is about it around here...I am having trouble with blogger so not many pics in this post...and hopefully this will publish OK! Lissy

finally...

Finally after a LONG time we are back online...I am not happy with Bigpond...I got very irritated with people suggesting I try and get a signal again in a couple of hours!

And one guy on the tech support phone actually suggested I take my modem for a drive with a lap top in the car and try it out else where...I said I could but there would be no power for the modem...doh! He suggested I go and buy an in car thing for this experiment...I said I would not! Finally the other day they sent a new modem and we are up and running! YAY!

And thanks for all the messages and queries as to how we all are while we were "gone"...we are fine but glad to be back in cyberspace! I shall update soon...Lissy
