and today I scrapped...
I am getting ready to do my pages for the classes I will be teaching at the 7th Wave Rock Scrapbooking Retreat to be held 17th to 19th October 2008. As Karen of Scrappin' Outback, who is organising the retreat said that's only 8 weeks away! One class will be school pages...so you are ready to scrap those school photos this year...and the other class will probably be a layout with lots of photos...but still thinking on that one! I am using some of the new Basic Grey paper ranges that I am impatiently waiting to arrive in the post!
I must update my side bars with links to the Scrappin' Outback blog etc ...I dont have the computer skills but some one I know does...(hint hint Alli )...oh and I need a new banner at the top...
Anyway hope your week has started well...I will upload the other layout tomorrow -Lissy

getting away...
The weather was great...about 20C...and there were no crowds as it is the off season...we had some meals out...and did some touristy things...the best thing was a boat trip around the river and the estuary on the Mandjar...and we saw lots of dolphins...E loved it...
We visited the Peel Zoo as E really wanted to see koalas...we saw one...and lots of birds...but she was pretty amazed when a cockatoo said hello to her and I love you!We had fun in a couple of play grounds...Morganne liked the swing until it started to move!And E had fun on her scooter!I have edited my photos and am determined to do some scrap booking this week! I hope you have had a great weekend - Lissy

play...
And we are packing to go away for a few days...to Mandurah...not far but it will be great as we have not been anywhere for two and a half years! Since Ben works away he is always quite happy just to be at home! And there is a pool so maybe Morganne will get more used to it!So I am getting plenty of photos...and will have lots more once we return...so I shall have to get scrapping again! Have a great rest of the week - Lissy

spring is almost here...
Tuesday, August 12, 2008
8 months old...
She now has four teeth as the top front two have just appeared in the last couple of days! She definitely prefers fruit and yoghurt but will eat some veggies and stuff and we have started on some finger food..toast, pasta, grated cheese and apple...not that much actually gets eaten but she will get the idea...and she is getting the idea about drinking water from a sipper cup...she will push my hands out the way if she doesn't want something! And is getting pretty good at grabbing the spoon! So we have a big mess mostly! She either eats sitting in the bumbo or in the highchair...with a plastic table cloth on the floor to catch all the spills...
She can sit up fine now and is trying to get moving but she cant quite get her leg around but I am sure she will in a week or so!
She is such a happy content little baby...so when she is grizzly I know she really is not feeling very well! M has just started throwing things over the side and watching them fall! We have yet to get the sleeping thing sorted...as M is still waking once or twice a night for a feed...but we will get there...If I can get her eating more in the day we might be right! She is 69cm long and 9.52 kg...(E was about 72 cm and 8.9kg at the same age)...Morganne's Size 0 clothes are getting too small so we are progressing onto size 1...Her eyes are definitely looking like they will be brown or hazel...and her hair is getting lighter...looking at photos the two girls look quite different...Evangeline loves being a big sister and will happily entertain Morganne...she said a couple of weeks ago that she is glad we had another baby so she has someone to play with! E is growing up too...She decided she didn't need any of her blankies for bedtime (muslins) anymore so got them out and put them all in M's room! But she did want one back at night time! Here is Evangeline at 8 mths...we didn't have a very good camera then... E was crawling and pulling herself up on furniture at this age...
Yesterday Evangeline had Eden over to play after school....I was too busy chatting to Simona to take any photos but they had a great time! I hope your week has started well - Lissy

the weekend...
Morganne tried toast ...and I am trying to fill her up on food during the day hoping that she might not wake so much at night! But her top teeth are cutting and she has a terrible cold so she is not really wanting to eat at all poor thing! And she is very grizzly...and waking every couple of hours at night!
And Sunday was a quiet day..tried out the slow cooker and made a yummy pot roast as mum came over to have tea with us...Ben is back out at sea after a few days in port...But he is home in a week! I hope you have had a good weekend...Lissy
