Sunday was a glorious day - starting off with a sleep in, followed by beautiful buttermilk pancakes with berries and ice-cream thanks to TheMan! I only wish I had have taken a picture so I could share with you the deliciousness!
We then just chilled as a family, and went and had lunch at the Outlaws (Dave's parents), my brother-in-law, my sister-in-law (and confidant, haven't thought of nicknames for them yet, watch this space) and their 2 kids MiniMan and Lala.
Yesterday brought with it a very important document I've been waiting a couple of weeks for, pertaining to TheRatbag and our Court fiasco involving him. Lets just say, this document held exactly the news I wanted to hear (and more!) and I couldn't be happier, but definitely not too cocky. Now it needs to translate into Orders at the hearing on Monday - hopefully the last so we can get on with our lives and continue to get prepared and excited for him starting Prep in January!
Speaking of which, today's excitement was receiving TheRatbags' class list, teacher and class room for next year. I've had him practicing his teacher's name and class name. He is very excited to have some of his friends from pre-school in his class, and also the prospect of meeting lots of new friends.
On this rainy day, I've spent it doing bits and bobs of housework, trying to keep TheRatbag entertained, and drafting legal documentation. Luckily, I actually LIKE drafting said corro, and I best get as much practice in considering my career goal is to become a kick-ass barrister! I will not be sorry to see the end of the process though personally, and I think my experience will bring empathy to the profession that someone who has not been through it cannot give.
Fast approaching 19 weeks and have my morphology scan this Saturday morning, I love seeing BellyBub so I'm looking forward to it.

ReplyDeleteIt's giant, I know, so people keep saying!
ReplyDeleteYou kind of have an excuse considering you're in a different state!! I'm just a control freak and have to have this stuff sorted cos HeEx won't, and I have to be on top of this crap for Court.
I've seen how advanced Aricyn's writing is, you can certainly tell he's ready!
