STRESSSSSSSS

Well we are a couple days away from all our household contents being shipped back to SA. The stress levels are high. Three boys add to all the fun! There was one good thing that happened though...

Last weekend Damien surprised me with a trip to Rome. Dominic and Nathan spent the weekend with Andrew and Mel and we took Joshua with us. Cuan and Chantel came with as well. We had a fabulous time and were really taken with the whole city. A really nice getaway during a very stressful period.

Dominic Turns 6

Well my little baby is 6. Two days before his sixth birthday his first tooth fell out. We were sitting on the bus and he starts yelling from the back seat MOOOOOMMMM. I turn around to see him holding his tooth and blood all over his mouth. The excitement!!! Anyway he was most anxious to get his tooth under his pillow that night and boy was he happy when he got a 'golden coin' from the toothfairy. Nathan not to be outdone has been trying to pull his teeth out for the toothfairy's castle.

Phew what a hectic few weeks. With our pending huge move back to South Africa we have a house full of boxes and things to pack away. Stressing out about closing accounts, sorting out the tenancy, arranging shipping, schools you name it we are trying to do it. On top of it all we had to spend a night in hospital with poor little Josh who has mild pneumonia. Poor babe was not very well at all. I tell you I can't wait until the 5th of Dec when we fly out of here and can at least spend a few days relaxing by the pool.
