c u l8ter (this is text speak to show i am down with the kids)

i know i missed last wednesday's blog and i think the wednesday before that as well and here i am writing on a Tuesday. it's all very confusing. Anyway my excuse for last week is that mac had a vomiting virus and was sick for ages and he is still sick now poor little sausage, and we are off to NZ on saturday. And once again I am dragging my heels in the packing department, so anyway i have been very busy and I only have 15 minutes before i wake him up.

So here are some bullet points of the recent family Bennett activities:

  • jamie and I went out to dinner by ourselves for the third time in 10 months. It was awesome and i was only stressed at the beginning of the meal by the end of it I was loving it.

  • Jamie and Mac have identical shaped heads, this really, really freaks me out. From the back they are totally indistinguishable. freaky.

  • We are leaving for NZ on saturday, am not looking forward to the flight or the jetlag.

  • mac has been sick but has been a trouper and hardly complained at all, I have been sick and have hardly complained at all (I've always been a good patient ask my Mum) Jamie has possibly been sick but has definitely been complaining about it.

  • Mackay's sleep has been awesome for ages then suddenly we had a few weeks of 5:00 wake ups which where a killer and then he was waking up all hours of the night and once not going back to sleep for two hours, so I have been very tired. In fact I am still very tired.

  • my skin has almost cleared up and people seem less inclined to cross the street when they see me coming.

  • I am now an official mum as I have bought a one piece to wear on the beach, I am hurtling towards middle age.

thats all, see my nz peeps in a few days. will hopefully update soon with lots of lovely photos from my holiday. also the weather better by good or I will kick some arse.

Also a little shout out to all the people effected by the earthquake in christchurch, sometimes things are a bit too shocking for words I think xxxx
