Sorry for the delay....

Wow, so much to say - where do I start?

I'll start with the most recent and exciting news!

Ashleigh got her ears pierced yesterday!!

She is so excited! On Tuesday she saw her BFF get her ears pierced and wanted to get hers done at the same time but I knew that Aaron didn't want her to get her ears pierced until she was AT LEAST 12 so I had to say no. Then yesterday we were at the shops and Ashleigh told Aaron that she saw Monique get her ears pierced and out of the blue he turned to her and asked "Would you like to get your ears pierced?" With a HUGE smile on her face and eyes lit up she said "YEAH". So he said "OK, let's get them done because you've been such a good girl these holidays!"

I seriously thought she'd cry or at least scream but she just flinched and that was it! She was so brave! She has been bouncing around the house ever since!




On Tuesday we said goodbye to Aunty Mandy (or Bandy Mandy in Lauren speak) and Richard. It was very sad - Ashleigh didn't stop crying for ages after they left and kept asking why they had to go home.

We really enjoyed seeing them again. It's a shame we didn't get to spend more time with them as Aaron was working the entire time! Aunty Mandy even had the pleasure of changing one of Lauren's poo poo nappies! Lucky thing! We are counting down the days until we see everyone in January!






School holidays have flown by! I can't believe we're in October already! I walked through the shops the other day and it's full of Christmas decorations! What the heck?! Where has the year gone?

I just love the weeks and months leading up to Christmas. It's my all-time favourite time of the year! The days start getting warmer and the days start getting longer. I love it!

Anyway, have a great week ya'll!
