Long Weekend

It seems as though it has been a long weekend for us, as my brother Brett (Uncle Fork) turned up on Friday night and is here till this afternoon (sad face).

Friday we had Playcentre in the morning, then Aunty Nicola and Connor surprised us with a visit. It had been almost 6 weeks since we last saw them, although apart from both the boys getting bigger nothing much had changed of course. Connor is getting really good at stopping Zack from snatching toys off him which is great, less work for me! Zack was cute saying "Connor" and trying to get Connor to do things like ride the rocking horse. After they left Zack kept going on and on about Connor, especially when I was putting all the toys away Zack was saying "Connor...Mess" when in actual fact is was Zack who had pulled all the toys out to show Connor.

Zack stayed at the Bailey's on Friday night and most of Saturday, he was a very good boy as usual and they had lots of fun painting and playing with play dough. He came home counting...well the even numbers anyway - all the way up to 10.

Saturday night Mum and Sean invited us over for a BBQ at their place, it was yum! Zack
had lots of fun showing off to everyone.

Sunday Zack came down with a cold, was sneezing most of the day and had a runny nose and eyes...kept him dosed up on Pamol.

Yesterday Zack was well and truely down and out with a cold...slept lots, cuddled lots but still laughed lots too which was nice. Specially good that Uncle Fork was here to help out as Zack had kept me up most of Sunday night.

Zack and Gabby drawing with Chalk

Gabby lives over the road from us. She is 6 months older than Zack and talks LOTS. She has a photo of Zack on her bedroom wall, she loves him! Quite often the two of them will be yelling across the street to one another it goes something like this "Zack", "Gabby", "Hi", "Hi", "Zack", "Gabby", "Dogs Out" (Gabby is petrified of our dogs). This morning the calling out to Gabby started at 8am...I don't even think Gabby was out of the house.

Zack playing on the fence...being very cheeky!

Zack in Uncle Fork's Car...beeping the horn!

I can tell by that look on his face that he is going to have a thing for cars!

that's all for now, off to bed for Zack and I. Fingers crossed we are well enough for playcentre tomorrow.
