Al's Birthday and other things

Hello all, it's been a while since we've blogged here so thought we should!

We had a nice day yesterday. Sam slept through which was a great start and Jacob enjoyed helping daddy opening his pressies. We had lunch at Harbour Town after church then went to a friend's 1st Birthday party at The Beach House. The boys had a great time and Al and Jacob enjoyed a ride on the train (which went round and round as Jacob told us). Then it was back to church again and home again and that was the day!

On Friday we took the boys to Dorothy's Dance Party at Norwood (it was basically a Wiggles show without the Wiggles!). Sam had a great time but Jacob fell asleep on the way so we had to wake him up and he took quite a while to warm up to it. As we were leaving he waved at Dorothy and said 'I had a lovely time at your party Dorothy!' which made it all worthwhile! Very sweet.

We're enjoying Al's uni holidays. Jacob especially is, being such a Daddy's boy! The train set is getting a good work out and we're crossing a number of jobs off the list. Sam and I are looking forward to our holiday this week (actually I don't think Sam is too fussed at all!) and Jacob and Al will have a great bonding time here by themselves.

Ummm what else...?

The latest favourite fun thing to do is for Sam to push Jacob on his car. Jacob's pretty good at not going to fast so sam can keep up, and the turning around is improving, and they're both loving it! Sam is very quick cruising around the furniture and knees etc so don't think it will be long til he's really off. Eek! Rike & Peter don't know what they're in for! He is a happy fun little man :) and so is Jacob!

Think that might be about it for now. Nanny B arrives Thursday 12th July and we're gonna have Sam's party on Sunday 15th. Less than 3 weeks away! Crikey! She'll be here for 2 weeks so and then Al will be back at Uni and I spose I should go back to work and next thing we know it will be Christmas! Heheheheh....

(Al and I are enjoying our new phones too! 2mp camera on the phone is as good as our normal digital camera ;))

Much love to all!
