old pics

I was going through some old pics and found these from Jumbo's first trip down south to met the relatives. we visited old Nana at the nursing home and the boys were so sweet entertaining the other residents. It was the last time we saw Nana she passed on shortly after.

This was Jumbo pretending to be dead and needing the foot of life, he then would get up and run around and tell the residents it was ok he was alive now. !!

One old fellow got teary when we left and asked if we could come again.

The boys chose to wear their King shirts to liven up the place. I am sure we were the big event for the week.

this is 2 of our cousins Sean and Thomas, the kids had not meet Jumbo before and had only met Jarryd once but were quickly old buddies

He was such little bundle of fun and laughter and still is just harder to catch and throw around

New Member of the Family

The boys and I went shopping with Nana today to buy the boys a bantam rooster, but came home with a surprise fathers day present for Pa.

Well the boys think that he is theirs too of course.

Mum had been looking for a Bichon cross with a Shitzu for ages so it we great.

Although Pa got naming rights and called him Jim Jim,

then Jumbo informed him that it should be

Little Jim Jim PA!

It is only 8 weeks old and the boys hardly put it down.

While I was out getting Colin his fathers day gift

for the boys, apparently all 3 where that worn out that they needed to have a doggy nap in the laundry.

I felt like the big bad mum having to wake them and drag them home to go out for tea.

When we got back to our house the boys insisted that I ring to check on Jim Jim in case he missed them too much , I had to reassure them that we would see him tomorrow for Fathers day.

then budding farmer

Big decisions today do I go and play with Jarryd or play with Dad on the Tractor. the tractor won but I missed the pic of him asleep on the tractor on Dad's knee as happens most times. It is like the car all that vibration put my baby to sleep no matter how much he fights is.

the first of many to loose

Jarryd lost his first but Jumbo wasn't far behind.

Well he keeps wanting to catch up to his big brother and now he is on his way both lost teeth within hours of one another. the poor tooth fairy is going into overdrive. All it took was some spagetti and out it came.

Off to Thailand again

Well I have talked my DH into staying home while I go back to Thailand to enjoy a leisurely shop without the 3 boys wanting my attention tor to go back to the motel to swim, eat, etc...

So the new ticker is a great reminder, to keep the excitement building. We haven't told the boys yet we will wait until the week before and then they can put in their requests. I am sure there will be many.













The boys wanted some pics of them on the ride on so here they are zipping around not mowing the lawns just hanging out and pretending to be the good soldiers that protect people.

Hey mum we just want to be Rock Stars Hey!!

Multicultural day in Rockhampton

Big day today,

We Jumbo, Ben & I went to the multicutural festival in Rockhampton, caught up with friends from our central qld adoption group and marched under the multicutural banner. Jumbo & little friend Ben were our thai reps for the day, and really made themselves know to the crowd.

I got some more takers for a Thai shopping trip in Nov or Dec so looking forward to a girls week shopping with non of those non shoppers slowing us down. Now I dont have to buy big I just like to have a leisurely look withou the time out look from the boys LOL

So while Jumbo-Dyaln and Mum were getting cultural Jarryd & Dad were doing the last AFL (footy) day down at the beach. Jarryd tells me he got several goals and some wicked marks.

Sorry Colin didn't take pics of the footy.

Last night we got together for Chinese with some of our international mates felt so sad for those unsuspecting diners at the resturant but at least the other children enjoyed having our group there to play with. It is so good to be a member of a local group for international adoption, it helps with any little issues, and helps with the wait and dealing with the local department. So thanks you guys that are listening you cheer me up just when I need it.

Cheers
