photos for the local newspaper

We had nominated one of our beautiful nurses from the Royal Children's for a Pride of Australia medal - last October (after we had spent the day together with Jodie doing an endocrine test on little one - for 4 hours of bloods and toe pricks).

In the last few weeks we had some photos of taken for our local newspaper and I couldn't be prouder of our boy and Jodie.

The photo looked great and I am praying and hoping that her nomination will be one of the top three in the State as then she will go through to Australia wide nominations.  She really deserves to be recognised for her work and also to be a representation of our amazing nurses at the Royal... fingers crossed.

Here is a link (hopefully) to the article: Pride of Australia nomination for our nurse Jodie

P.S. Photos courtesy of soon to be 6 year old son!

First fete... just getting used to this whole school thing!

First fete prep ever.  I can't believe that my Mum and Dad this every year for what feels like forever! Plus the netball/swimming/triathlon support, help, baking and set up/pack up.  How do I ever even begin to repay my parents?

Very daunting and my only contribution is baking and preserve making (first time for both).  As long as it does not have my name on, surely I can not be held responsible for food poising/botulism?
