This morning, Matilda and I (Cam) set out on a Bunnings trip to get a few bits and pieces to fix some stuff around the house before we head off for two weeks away in Melbourne. Things were going well - I had managed to get her dressed, put her hair into a pony tail... Continue Reading →
Cam here. Decided that I should start having a presence here as Kath is being rather prolific in her blogging efforts - I didn't think this would be the case as she isn't a "tell all" kind of person. The one thing in our favour at the moment though is that there is plenty to tell! So what... Continue Reading →

A rather tragic event occurred today... Matilda's beloved "Jessie Toy" suffered a traumatic above knee amputation at the hands of an over-enthusiastic remote controlled car extraction, courtesy of Jack.
