Smiling Roald

Finally caught him on camera smiling.

My three sons

Anita arrived. And with her came the rains. It has rained alot since she got here. Good for us, not so good for her. There was a really heavy rain today (68mm) and I noticed that the water tank was overflowing. I went to have a look and the tank wasn't full yet. I shook the pipe that the water comes in from and there was something that looked like seaweed in the pipe. I shook it and it wasn't seaweed, it was a dead possum. It had somehow got into the pipe on the roof of the house and come all the way through the drainpipe into the tank filter. Sooooo gross. I nearly vomited. Poor little possum though. Well, the water tank filter is now clear and the tank is full.

The Easter Egg hunt

We went to Nanna and Grandad's house for the Easter Egg Hunt. It is always very exciting. After the hunt all the older cousins stayed and had a sleepover at Nanna's.

Nicolas had a strategy of find one egg and eat it, then search for the next one.

All the hunting made Roald very tired.

Having a bath

Roald is much better at having baths nowadays. It's not as stressful an experience as it used to be.

Happy Easter!

We started off the day with a breakfast of chocolate eggs. Always good for me! Then Dom took the boys out and I took Emma into the city. She is staying in the city for the next few days before heading off to Sydney.

Poor Felix might need some dental work.
