We’ve been telling Sophie all week long that we’re going to buy a Christmas tree this weekend. So you could imagine how excited she was when we finally got around to getting one. We drove to place way out in Albany where you drive onto a farm and they have a zillion wicked trees to choose from. The friendly old geezer who owned the property took a wee shining to Sophie and told us we could go for a walk around his property and look at all the animals too...good to see there are still some genuine people around. When we got home we did lots of colouring in and drawing in her activity books - we're trying to teach Sophie to colour in between the lines...it's a slow process...

How did I do mummy and daddy?

Yesterday we dropped Soph off at Auntie Nicky’s place for the afternoon – Nic offered to have her for a hew hours so we could go Christmas shopping and chill out with just the two of us. Even through it was only a few hours, it was quite relaxing shopping without a 2 ½ year old latching onto us and wanting to play on every merry-go-round and play thing that malls have these days! Sophie had a blast at Nic’s place anyway- they went to the park, had a swim and did lots of Auntie/niece things all afternoon…cheers Nic! (we'll see you next weekend too huh?)

Yay Auntie Nicky!-
"Mmm which tree do I like?..."-
"I think this one!"-
"Come on Mummy!...I know you're pregnant but I want to see the animals!"Brad
