Daughter and Mika
Posted in daughter on Oct 2nd, 2008
Daughter has a little baby my Mum gave to her. The baby’s name is Mike (which is the name of the baby on Play School apparently).
Daughter loves her.
For the last few weeks, Daughter has decided she’s not going to lie down when she goes to bed. She informs us each time we put her down that she wants to, “Sit, sit!” (She’s having trouble with the ’s’ sound, which is problematic. I’ll leave that to your imagination).
There’s no fuss, she doesn’t ever [...]
Her New Favourite Word Is ‘Me’
Posted in daughter on Jul 28th, 2008
Actually, that’s probably not fair. Her favourite words (in no particular order) are: Nanna, GB (her paternal grandmother), me, church, shoes, ontology (not really), juice (pronounced identically to shoes), cup, Pop, Papa, up, yes, no and more.
One of our local haunts in Newtown is Café Ism, on Wilson St.

Fiji
Posted in daughter, family and friends, play on Jul 16th, 2008
On Sunday night, the three of us got back from a week in Fiji, thanks to the extraordinary generosity of certain people. And man, was it sweet.
It wasn’t too hot, but there was plenty of sun-on-skin, we went snorkeling (both off a boat and off the beach into the coral lagoon), we ate amazing food [...]
She’s Listening to Radiohead

Although that doesn’t explain the smile…
There are a few advantages to rainy days (which, by the sounds of it, we should be embracing). One of those advantages is getting kids in cute rain gear.
Cordie has an enormous raincoat and some gumboots. She didn’t like the gumboots much when we put them on, and wanted to sit on my knee rather [...]
If you’ve read anything much on this site, you will know how much we love our girl and what a blessing she is to us.
That being said, I’ve been wondering why two days paid work a week seems easy and rewarding and the days as “all mum” seem much more exhausting and leave me feeling [...]
Upstairs Playtime
Posted in daughter on May 8th, 2008
We’re just trying Cordie having playtime in her room upstairs as I type. She has been having playtime a few times a day in the middle of the lounge room, which not only decreases the useable room space in that room to 0.8 sq metres, but also means that you can’t be in the lounge [...]
Little Friends

Our great friends Pete and Georgia have a darling little girl, A Ro (that’s her ghetto name). She and Cordie hung out.
