August #3

My friend Julie that I used to work with (a while ago now) had her baby shower at the end of August which was a lovely day and a chance to catch up.

Julie, Deborah (who I also worked with) and me.Here is a photo of Harper, the beautiful baby bump in the photos! What a great looking boy! (Photo borrowed from Julie)
And here is a photo of Ava (Deborah's gorgeous daughter). She is now eight months old. I was a bit naughty and didn't post a photo in February when she was born. (photo borrowed from Deb)

August #2

On the way back from the snow we had a few hours spare in Canberra so we did a couple of touristy things like visit Parliment House and the War Memorial. Here is a photo of the War Memorial building.


Frosty also celebrated his birthday at the end of August so Tino and I make him a birthday cake. We had lots of fun making it as you can see.

August #1

In August Frosty and I were both very spoilt by having a week at the snow by ourselves (Tino-less). Frosty's parents came and stayed with Tino to look after him while we were away and he didn't even miss us. In the end he couldn't even be bothered talking to us on the phone each night!

We had a wonderful time at the snow, and it was a much deserved break for both of us. Frosty has been working such big days with very long hours and it was the first time in 2.5yrs that I had time on my own without Tino. We were very spoilt - thanks Coral and Syd!
