I am still here people.
I love days like today. They are the ones that totally make it worth having no money and not working to be out n about with my boy.
Today we signed up for Kindy which will start in the new year, 3 afternoons a week, moving to 3 mornings a week.
We had BK for lunch in town with Daddy.
We did Grocery shopping and Gabe helped me "push" the trolly home.
We got an ice cream for afternoon tea as he's been a really good boy all day.
Gabes blood sugars have been really good of late, and I can't wait for the new year when he gets his insulin pump which means at that point that I wont have to be at Kindy with him as much as they will be able to handle it from there.
He's also a delight.
He's about 4-6 months of being able to read I estimate. and at the moment will spend hours while I'm in the kitchen standing at the fridge asking me to spell words for him while he gets the magnets out and spells them on the fridge. I am just constantly amased at what a sponge for knowledge this boy is, it really is amasing.
I hear him up after I've tucked him into bed at night, "reading" to teddy, and telling stories. He's almost at the age of constantly questioning things, which while annoying to me I know is his way of absorbing everything he can.
He really is a little boy now.
He's still loving to cook, and help in the kitchen and wants to know what goes into everything and what each ingredient tastes like on it's own before it goes in and then what the result is after it's gone into the pot.
Wont be long at this rate and he wont need mum.
Well it wont seem like long.
Hell He's 4 in January, 4 FFS where did the last 4 years go, wasn't I just bringing him home from the hospital?
In other Non child related news.
I'm happy.
I'm fat again, but I'm happy.
it's summery enough to enjoy more beer and other warm weather things.
It's spring enough that ... Well I'll let you finish that one :D
It's been 9 months now and my heart still skips a beat when I see John, and i still get butterflies when I know he's about to come home, and there is still love and affection and mushyness and enjoyment of each other.
There have been money woes, but the light is at the end of that tunnel and soon enough they will go away.
which is good.
And then there is Xmas and Family, and new years and birthdays and anniversaries.
This weekend I get to take Gabe to a Xmas party which he gets invited to through Diabetes Youth.
I'm also trying to organise a meet up from a message board I visit for those of us in welly it's fun.
It's that time of the year and yet I wont see most of the people who will end up reading this.
Right time to go make dinner.
