Christmas

Having had such a busy time, I'm just getting round to updating you all with events of the past couple of months. Christmas week started with Wes' work breakfast barbie, where we introduced Harry to Wes' work mates. Everyone was so surprised that we had made it and that Harry and I were home from hospital within a day, let alone out for breakfast by 8am. Santa made a surprise visit, to which George was very impressed with the skate board he received.
Christmas Eve we met friends at a pub for a drink and the kids could play. It was really nice as there was entertainment laid on for the kids, drawing, games, face painting etc, then Santa put in another appearance with his mate the Dolphin, who was handing out candy!
Christmas Day we were up early, George was awake before 6am and really pleased that Santa had been to our house. He appeared to have left his whole sleigh full of presents in lounge! It didn't take him long to get through them. I think he was in awe of it all, the first year he really understood what was going on, but he revisited his presents to play with them over the next few days. We started the day with bacon sarnies and chilled at home, before going to a friends for Christmas dinner and cooling off in the pool. We had a very relaxing day and considering it was Harry's first Christmas, I'm sure he won't remember a thing as he slept through it all! In true Christmas style, we watched Del Boy that night!! (as it's not Christmas with out an episode of Only Fools and Horses!!)
Boxing Day was spent at home, allowing George to play with his presents and muck around in the garden with his water slide. Wes took George and Rod to Cottesloe Beach that evening and watched the sunset. It was a lovely couple of days.
