Back to Sydney

So much has happened since my last update with Jackson blossoming into a beautiful little boy - there is no way he can be thought of as a baby any longer......(sob!). In January, Brent, Jackson and I headed back to NSW for another visit with the Sydney Hansens. Jackson was inconsolable upon our return after having three other kids to play with for so long! Jackson absolutely adored Emilia and I would love to say that the feeling was mutual but she played a little hard to get with him (you go girl!) and only warmed up to having him around and having to share her toys on the morning we went home! She did however, latch onto Brent and he loved giving her cuddles. The adults also had lots of fun involving counting down the hours till kids bedtime when we would have a few drinks and play some poker and UNO out on their deck. I would like to tell you that I maintained my 'Champion of the World' status at UNO, but that would be a dirty lie. Watch out for Trisha though..... that nice and innocent persona she maintains gets left at the door during poker - I think she may have actually won the most games! We also had the pleasure of being there for Ethan's first day at school and it was lovely to see how excited he was and how grown up he looked in his school gear. Once again, we cant wait till next we meet again.... we always have so much fun together and we just love being able to see the kids play! Thanks to Scott, Trisha, Ethan, Jacob and Millie for another wonderful trip!
