On Saturday 19th October, we went along to Dreamworld with the plan to see The Wiggles live in concert. We were able to access a special show at 9:30am as we are passholders (unlimited access to the park all year round). We could not believe the crowds outside the park at 8:30am! And they kept […]

Things I love about Kyan. The way he shouts ‘mum’ in the morning when he wakes up. Then puts his arms out for a cuddle , and gives me a big kiss. When he is sat at my feet in the shower, and he grabs the bodywash, pumps it onto his hand and washes his […]

On the 27th August, our gorgeous little boy turned 2. It was Kyan’s first Australian birthday so we had a few celebrations for him and he was spoilt rotten. We went to Sydney for the weekend before his birthday (kids fly free before they are two!) to celebrate with our Aussie family. We had more […]

Living in Australia, we are not sure if the support we receive for Kyan  is more or less than what we would have received in the UK or how different things might be. So I thought I would write about some of the things we do with Kyan to help with his development and some […]

So much has happened since I last wrote that it is difficult to decide where to start…. Kyan is now 22 months old and changed dramatically in the last 4 months! Our biggest news…….KYAN IS WALKING!! Yep that’s right. Just sort of took off about 2 weeks ago.  He took his first few independent steps […]

I can’t believe our little boy is 18 months old! Time flies when you’re having fun! We have now moved to the Gold Coast, Queensland and so far have loved every minute. We decided to hire a car and drive from Sydney to the Gold Coast (about a 15 hour drive) and stop off at […]

We have had nothing but sunshine the last month and then today….RAIN!! But it’s not too bad – at least it’s still hot! So we have been here for one month now and been having a great time. We are still in holiday mode (as we felt we needed one) and have been busy doing […]

We arrived the morning on the 27th  Dec and so had a delayed Christmas with our Aussie family. Kyan was completely spoilt! He had so many presents that I think everyone got a little bored of watching him open them. It was great though as most of his toys are on the container so now […]

I apologise for not posting anything in awhile but we have been a little busy… We said our farewells to Laurens family and left Luton, UK on 24th December 2012. Our flights were for the 25th but we couldn’t leave Laurens family on Christmas Day! Although it was very sad saying goodbye to our family we […]

It has been awhile since I last wrote. Things have just got so busy and (like Helen said in her blog) I haven’t felt the need to write as much now that life has become normal. But then I realised that someone out there might actually benefit from the fact that we have a ‘normal’ […]
