The painting is driving me nuts, its depressing me, not just cos its so big and is taking so long but it is a depressing picture. ho hum.

Anyway, the holidays are nearly over and i have achieved absolutely nothing, which is quite fulfilling in itself really.

While my brothers are dealing with winter cold with the kids and all that lil person stuff my household is looking upwards and onwards, tayla doesnt wet the bed anymore, YAY (i hate doing washing) she uses words and not just high pitched squealing sounds to get what she wants, AND (the best of the lot) we are beggining to eradicate the "i need" from her vocabulary!!! plus now when we take her to the pools she wants to spend more time in the bigger deep pool which is way more fun for those of us that enjoy swimming in a pool where the water comes above our knees.
She is also starting to watch the type of cartoons that i like! bunus huh.
