    Azzan must have been tired from his weeks in the big city
    He slept late despite all my noise as I zipped about showering and getting myself ready this morning.
    I finally had to wake him around 8am.
    Phoebe, Azzan & I were all ready to leave soon after 8:30am.
    Sebastian went off to do man stuff and we headed down to drop Azzan off at One Day School.
    Then Phoebe & I popped into Crusoe's Cafe and had a cuppa and chat with Anat, Rami & Beth as they opened up for the day.
    We went straight from there to visit Marah & Mahalia.
    It was lovely to arrive and find them both looking so happy.
    The night had gone well, and Marah was much more relaxed.
    She did however had a sore shoulder so Phoebe offered her a massage.
    I left them to it and took Mahalia out to get some fresh air.

    We went to catch up with Errilyn & Herbie and their two boys who have been back from Western Australia for a holiday with their families.
    I was glad we could catch up briefly before they headed back to WA.

    Young Malachi was enjoying his new motorbike and spent most of our visit doing burnups around the living area.

    The morning was disappearing so we said our goodbyes and I dropped Mahalia back and picked up Phoebe.
    The girls had enjoyed their time together and Marah was looking very relaxed.

    Phoebe and I went into town.
    Called into Vodafone to get her new phone sorted.
    It was going to take a while to sort all the paperwork so we mosied off to the Farmers Market and got ourselves a salmon & avocado wrap for our lunch.
    There was a neighbouring stall selling pear juice so we tried their hot pear chai drink.
    It was SO good that we bought a mug each.
    Sat in the sun and enjoyed the wrap and the drink.
    It was really nice to have time to just sit and enjoy our food.

    Back to pick up the phone, then picked up some memory sticks for Shoshannah, had to go back to Vodafone again so sent Phoebe into Jeans West to try on some jeans.

    She found a couple of pairs that fitted so she was happy.
    Zipped across the street and got some Starbucks drinks to take back to the girls.
    Marah was feeding Eden when we got there.
    I couldnt resist taking more photos.
    She is just way too cute heart

    I had to go pick up Azzan from school to we headed away.
    For once I was there in time.
    He had enjoyed his day so I was pleased.
    He had been a bit reticent about going as he was tired from his travels.
    We went off to get veges and then met Sebastian at the Mall and got groceries while we were there.
    Then I took Azzan and headed back to see Marah & Eden while Seb & Phoebe went to visit some friends.

    When we arrived Marah & babe were sound asleep.
    David & Sasha had arrived and left Shoshannah there so the two girls were just hanging out.
    Azzan was busting for Eden to wake up but we left her to sleep.

     

    I helped Mahalia to get dinner ready.
    I made a bacon & egg pie while she did a large roasting pan of herbed roast veges.

    Then eventually the wee poppet began waking up.

    She squidged all around, stretching and yawning - so cute.
    Had all the children oohing and aahing over her.

    Uncle Zani was delighted.

    Aunty Shanni got her cuddles too.
    They are all fascinated with how tiny she is.

    We finally woke Marah up.
    She was out cold, good that she can get a good sleep and not have to worry about Eden.
    Mahalia is proving to be a good nanny, although she is getting a bit bored with nothing to do in between times.
    I helped Marah to get her feeding and she had a really good feed which made them both very happy.
    Contented wee lamb.

     

    Seb & Phoebe came and picked up Azzan and headed off home around 6pm.
    Shoshannah & I left soon after and drove back to Richmond for the night.
    Andrea had a yummy dinner ready.
    The power went off just as we were finishing.
    A fuse to the house went so we were the only house in the dark.
    The power guys eventually came and fixed it.
    Andrea sat and knitted while we talked.
    She is making some pretty cool scarves out of the most interesting yarns.
    Got a call from my bro over in WA.
    Nice to talk and catch up on the happenings over there.
    It is decidedly colder tonight so I didn't dally once I came downstairs.
    Much warmer in bed.
