Uni Results 2008 Semester 2

Results are in:-

Batchelor of Education topic:
Development, Learning and Inclusive Teaching: Distinction

Batchelor of Arts topics:
Advanced Multimedia Design:
Distinction
Issues for Australians:
High Distinction

Once again I'm very happy with these results for this semester which rounds of a great year of results. Now for a well earned rest from study until next year which I'm overloading by one topic per semester so that I don't have to do 2 subjects in second semester 2010.

Wet Wet Wet...No No No

Good news in the house of Jacob! For the last 3 nights Jacob has been nappyless overnight and has been dry the last 2 nights - Yeah! Yeah! First night wasn't to wet and the 2nd night he went to the toilet at 6am. This morning he woke and went at 7am.

Good start.

Update: well the last few mornings have been greeted with a wet or damp bed so continues encouragement and promise of ice-cream tomorrow for a dry bed!

Update #2: Icecream worked well however a longer sleep the next morning didn't quite work well. This morning (Sunday) was all dry. So out of 8 nights it has been 5 dry!

Kindy Concert

Last night was Jacob's Kindy concert. It was a fun, busy and a great night to end the kindy year. The weather was great and all the children had a fantastic play outside after the 1/2 hour songfest. Watch out for the video soon!

Thanks to Nanna and Pappa for coming along.







Resurrection


After 2 years the vegie patch has been resurrected with cucumber, capsicum, tomatoes, snow peas, brocolie and lettuce - great for salads during summer along with Jacob's strawberry plants. Been a few weeks now and everything is growing well - especially if we get some rain in the next few days. Yes, had some help from the boys in getting the patch ready and planting.

Calvin IS Indy and other (Whyalla) Kitto pics



Calvin all ready for school! Can you believe it?!!! He will have his first (and only) transition visit on Thursday morning. I took this photo on Monday with his new uniform and new school bag.

Both Natalie and Calvin have decided that they want to do gymnastics next year and have been practising their hand stands and cart wheels every day.

Eli is continuing to grow and thrive and generally just be really really cute.

Although Calvin's birthday is still a month away, we have started planning his party so that we can invite all his kindy friends (before the holidays start and he never sees them again!). Here is the picture I created for his invitations. I just thought I'd share. (For those of you who are interested, we've decide to have his party on Sun the 11th).

Hope you're all well. Love and hugs -Debbie
