Inside, we now have the hemp curtains, which just leaves a few more little bits and pieces of painting left to do. We've also started hanging up pictures so the house is looking more like a home. The curtains are heavy and look great and we've made them to minimise heat loss through convection currents past the windows. The house is now fealing much more cozy at night. I've also finished the wire balustrade which looks great (and it was quite simple to put up)and Jerry who is a retired handyman is now painting the exterior of the house for us.
We've had afew guests. Annette's dad Harley and Pam stayed with us for one night last week and all week we had Janet Perry (a vet friend from uni who was locuming on the central coast) staying which was really nice.
Mum's birthday was last week, so Mary, Irwin, Chloe, Dylan , Elise, Mum and Graham came over for a brunch (except that due to a missunderstanding I didn't prepare anything!!! Annette made a quick dash to the shops) to celebrate Mothers Day as well. Dylan tested out how kid-safe our house was... the first thing he did was fall off the chair and hit his head on the bamboo floor... it seems that as well as being fire and water resistant and termite proof, it is impact resistant... good to see the floor didn't get marked! (JUST KIDDING!!!) Dylan sported a nice little bump on his forehead but recoverd enough to lead the Lim Dancing Troupe.... thats an Elvis move!
AND....Mum is looking very happy 'cos we just told her that Annette is 11 weeks pregnant!

Thanks ! We had fun ; )
I forgot to give you the seeds though, so I'll post it.
Dylan is fine, he's the MAN!
Chloe is still talking about the tadpoles.
Took the kids to playgroup yesterday and they all spent most of the time picking leaves and little bits of flowers from the ground, despite the mountain of toys and activities being offered.........
Take care,
Mary & Co.
Hi Nett and Sooj,
Very cheeky being at the wedding with baby being born 2 days later and still not saying anything to the girls. Clever Bianca for figuring it out. Dylan is cute as Elvis, the girls do a good job of it too. great Dance Floor, specially without shoes. Where's a piccy of that baby in utero?
Love Mum/Annie
