3 Weeks Old

Show and tell at Daniel's School

On Monday Joshua was 3 weeks old. He has been giving us lots of joy and just having him around makes us all very happy.

It has been very cold here in Melbourne and so the early mornings are no joy when he wakes up and this has made him a bit unsettled, but compared to some newborn babies, we are still very lucky, because he is pretty good.

We had friends from Adelaide visit and stay with us this week. Julia and Ian (Daniel’s God Parents) came with their 3 beautiful little girls. The last time the girls saw Joshua he was “inside my tummy” and they were very happy to meet him in person. It was great having them to stay.

At the same time Anne and Felice and their 3 girls were in Melbourne for school holidays so on Tuesday night we had 14 people for dinner which was such fun! 9 kids (including Joshua).

Wednesday – Friday saw us take Joshy into the City for our Not Just Papers Shop for Mary Kay Seminar. We had lots of people visit and Joshua charmed them all.

Several of my Mary Kay friends from Adelaide and New Zealand came to see him, so it was great to catch up with them and show him off.

Thursday Night we went to Stalactites Greek Restaurant in town with Anne and Felice. Great food, but noisy and Joshua was beside himself by the time we got home….:(…it took us over an hour to settle him.

Friday night was our nephew Jordan’s birthday so we went to John’s sister’s house for cake and coffee after Seminar. All the Chiminello’s were very happy to meet him and once again showered us with lovely presents.

After a busy week, we had a very quiet weekend. I didn’t go out at all and kept Joshy at home to resettle him again and for me to rest. I was very tired after all the Seminar shop activities.
