an update for you

hi everyone

well archie is a staggering five and a half weeks and is growing every day. He has some major wind/colicky issues which keeps us very busy through the day. He likes to be with us so by the end of the day we are all generally tired and worn out! At the last weigh in, archie was a whisker under 5kg, so the newborn nappies didnt last long! Pete heads back to work tomorrow so we are up for another adjustment with a set of hands gone! It has been wonderful to have him home...and he has been a great help.

The milk pimples have hit archie which makes him look super cute...and he still has his stork mark on his nose and behind his head and neck. I will try and get some pics up over the next couple of weeks...its just trying to find the time with a little person who doesnt sleep much thru the day! poor little bugger... Just like his big brother eli! we finally got our first smilewhich lit up the whole house!

The house is coming along...The plasterer has all but finished and hopefully the kitchen will be in next week! something to look forward too. Pete has finished the drainage for the retaining walls so hopefully it wont get too boggy anymore...next job is to plumb the 2 big tanks we bought, so we can use tankwater for the house where we can.

we should have some news for melons cottage soon - from the legal eagles, and we have our letters of support as well which have been great...

just need to get into the house...we are probably hoping by aug/sept now...will keep u posted!

anyhoo, best fly...archie is begging for a feed!

lots of luv and sunshine
