Upside down Miss Jane!

Hi everyone! I put the photos in back to front, so the first ones are the most recent.

Squillions of photos, so not much explination.

We had Tink, Rhys, Tracy, Cheyenne, and Scott over for a BBQ on Friday night.

We had a great time, and the kids played beautifully.Such a strong girl!!

We had a giant mosquito inside, so Kylin put together this "swatting" ensemble, to make sure he didn't get bitten.
Mothers Day with Tink, Rhys, Tracy and Cheyenne.

Isn't she just the cutest little girl ever?

Dress ups have made a big comeback!

DJ flowershark is in da house

All the mummies and kids at Tinks house, awesome afternoon.

We had a sleepover at Bindi n Dans. This is little Baylie in the cubby.

Awwww

Don't ask!

Best buddies, Kylin and Brodie.

Kylin and I flew to Townsville to see Damian for the weekend, the photos are back to front, so this is Ky, completely exhausted, in the taxi on the way home.

We had a blast at the aquarium

What? Twisties?

Ky hid under the bed in the cabin when it all got too much for him.

He had a great trip but it was all too different and he got very homesick.

Being a seal!

He LOVED the bunk beds and the little curtains.

When we got to Townsville, the pilot let him sit in the cockpit and pretend to fly the plane.

Damian brought out his playstation, and Kylin just adored it.

I am in the process of party preperations for next Saturday. We are having a gathering at the park for Kylin's birthday. He has invited all the kids in his class along with our usual group of friends. His Nanny and Grandpa are flying up from Melbourne too. He is very excited.

Damian has just called from the train, he is doing his first solo drive down to Mackay. He sounds like a little kid he is so excited.

All else is well here, dogs are fluffing everywhere, weather is superb, life is good.

Happy birthday to our June babies:

Kylin, Ashleigh, Frank, Maddy, Jazzmin, Rebecca, Michael C,

Liam, Scott, Dad, Pete, Phillipa, Chookie, and Keir.

We hope your special day is memorable and filled with all you wish for. :)

We hope all is well in your world, and you find a reason to smile every day.

Love and hugs from us. xoxoxo

Happy Easter :)

Hi everyone, Happy easter!

Hope you are all having a relaxing break and easter bunny was kind to you.All ready for lunch at the Balaclava hotel. Unfortunately it turned out to be a disaster but at least none of us got sick and we can laugh about it now.

Living the dream - Damian driving a train out of Cairns.

Mum n Ernie came up for a few days and spent lots of time with Kylin which he loved. We had lunch at Mondo's with them just before they left.

Pacific National puts Damian and the crew up in a motel in between jobs. Rather than come home, he stays and gets the sleep he needs then rings us and we go visit him. Kylin loves to hide in the cupboard, and check out the bed/shower/light switches and little fridge

My beautifull mummies took me out for breakfast on my birthday. I had a wonderful day with lots of phone calls and messages, it was one of the best ever :)

Tina and Rhys came over with a cake for me and the boys helped me blow out my candles.

Kylin has started Ninjutsu. He is very focussed and adores Sensai Ron. He is working towards his blue belt and is really committed to doing his jobs in order to achieve that. This is his friend Kaleb who's also in Kylin's class at school.

Dr Underpants making a house call

Easter hat parade at school. LOADS of kids jumped up to "hi 5" him as he went past. He was like a rock star it was amazing. He had the time of his life.

Happy boy

Kaleb came over for a play easter Saturday, trying to get them both to smile at the same time was impossible :)

What to do when it's been raining solid for weeks? Indoor water play :) He stayed at this for hours, he had paint, food color, glitter, foil strips, shaving cream and liquid soap. He mixed and poured and had a wonderful time.

Happy birthday to our April babies:

Mia, Blake, Randy, Catherine, Meg, Muriel, Lisa, Susan, Sheridan, Bindi, and Noah.

and our May babies
Andrew T, Chris, Rick, Emma, Jo, both of my mums, Jake, and Shane.

Hope your special day is all you hope for.

I have been busy bouncing between Centrelink, Autism Qld, and disability support. They say Autisms a puzzle - you should try and navigate more than one government department that all require things from each other but not in logical sequence - maddening, but thankfully I'm ploughing through it all slowly.

Easter bunny left lots of fluff, grass and half chewed carrots everywhere, Kylin was SO excited, he chose to get a DVD instead of chocolate thankfully.

Today is our 7th wedding anniversary - yayyy for us :)

The 3 of us are going out for lunch today to celebrate - not to the Balaclava though.

Hope you are all happy and well, and that your world is making you smile.

Till next time. xoxo

before he set off to start work with the Pacific National in Townsville.

Very fetching :)

Daddy's first weekend back. Having pizza for valentines day.

In other news, we have finally got Kylin's paediatrition to confirm that he has Aspergers. I have known this for years, but having someone actually put it on paper means we can get him the support he needs at school which is fantastic.

Damian is enjoying his new job in Townsville and has moved into share accommodation already. Today he will complete his induction and next week he will start on a roster. He'll be home this weekend until Tuesday.

Happy Birthday to:

February

Marie, Merial, Marisol, Jessica, Mandy D, Ernie, John H, Kimmy, and Taylah.

March

Beccy, Jenny, Me, Jacinta, Joanne, Nick, Rob, Michael, Stuart, Finlay, Aimee, Sooz, Rach, and John C.

Hope you special day was / is wonderful. x

I hope you are happy and well, and that everything in your world is fabulous. Love and hugs to you all - Kaz. x
