Lately

Sorry for the lack of updates lately, but we've been busy! Setting up the new bookshelves, still sorting out house stuff! Plus we bought a painting at yesterday's Women's Conference at Life* Expedition to hang on the wall!

Speaking of the conference, Aidan was really well-behaved throughout - well looked after but Uncle Zakky and Uncle Aun, amongst other friends who love playing with him. Such a darling - he can really walk now with assistance! You should see how black his feet were after yesterday! As usual his socks came off and off he went, teetering and crawling around super fast! But I really got some got "refreshment" at the conference, hearing from the two speakers. Especially Ps. Shirley Osborne who spoke about the roles that tend to box women in, within societal constructs or institutions like the church. The loud "Mmm hmm!" from the back came from me, when she said "All I did was cook and clean all day!" Heh! But then again, she did have 4 kids by age 23...

On another note, we also got some great bargains and freebies at the Pregnancy Babies and Children's Expo on Friday. Bought him a baby wetsuit and swim nappy so he'll have his first go at swimming! Or at least water familiarisation. Loved the freebies we got at the expo though, from nappies and creams to drink bottles etc. Even a Poo Cracker from the potty training booth - basically you toss what's essentially a packing peanut into the toilet, and your child's meant to aim for it. Lasts 2-3 flushes. Interesting! Although potty training's one of those things I wish we can stave off for as long as possible!
