Almost three months....ooops!

It's been almost three months since my last post... sooooo much has changed!

I don't even know where to begin. We welcomed our second daughter Isla Jayde Horton into our family on the 3rd of December and she is an absolute delight. We all love her so much and she has just fit right in.

Christmas was nice. Darrin and Cameron came home and Rod and Dana were here so for once we were all together! Of course the time went too quick and after a few weeks they returned back to the UK.

The school holidays have been and gone. The kids have now returned to school and are settling into the new school year. Cody is in Pre primary and Lachlan is now in grade 2! They both seem happy with their classes and I am hopeful that they will have a good year.

We have had some really terrible news with some health issues in our extended family since Christmas and without going into it in detail, things are tough :( I've typed this paragraph three times (in different ways) and then deleted it again! I think I will leave it at that for now. I'll update some more down the track...

We still have the block in Wellard though we are now pretty uncertain about what we are doing! The house has been pulled off the market for the time being - I just couldn't cope with all the stress so we'll give it a few more months and then re-evaluate and make a decision.

The dynamic duo are still keeping us on our toes and as cheeky as ever. I am dealing with a lot of anger and frustration from them at the moment and am not really sure what to do with all the hitting, pushing, hair pulling and agro that they are displaying towards one another - I am just crossing my fingers and hoping that they outgrow it - SOON!

I think that's about it for us... so now I am updated I will try to keep up and post more regularly ;)

Congratulations on Isla's birth :) sorry I've not been on NC much so missed the announcement. Great to see a new post on your blog. I was wondering where you had gone too :) Selling houses and moving house are so stressful. I tell DH I'm never moving again :) I've moved 10 times .. I just worked that out Lol
