A weekend away!

It's been a while! Much has happened and I am trying to work out life's best balance!! (Work in progress!)

So in a nutshell... Bubba gump (baby number 3) is due beginning July!! (Hoping end of June! - like I get a say in that right?!?)... Moved into our first stand alone house in our entire marriage... Noosh has given up day sleeps (sigh)... I am back working 2 days a week... Kids started nursery... Noosh started ballet lessons (too cute)... Tad is such a boy - into body slams, emptying cupboards, playing in toilet water, active active active! Christmas came... Christmas went... How's that for a paragraph catch up!


So my wonderful parents flew into Cairns last weekend so Hubby and I could take a belated wedding anniversary weekend away. Note: our first time leaving our children with anyone other than us!!!! Our first time away from children in 3 1/2 years!! We went up to Port Douglas for 2 nights... And slept in 2 mornings (my first sleep in beyond 6am in 3 1/2 years!) it was lovely!!!


Hubby took me out Saturday night to an amazing restaurant. We ate under the stars and I crossed off an item from my bucket list... I did a 7 course tasting menu!!! AMAZING!!! Sadly my camera battery died after the second course so I didn't manage to get photos but man did I savour the experience!!


  

 

We returned to 2 very happy children and 2 very tired grandparents!!


It was lovely, and we missed the kids lots but was so nice to regroup and talk (uninterrupted) and eat when I was hungry and go to the toilet alone!

It really is the small things!
