getting bigger!

The nursery was done a few weeks ago but I never got around to posting photos. A lick of paint around the picture rail and window frames, and some furniture starting to appear.



The belly continues growing... This is at about 5.5 months:


As does the dog. She now has a full set of adult front teeth, next to go are the canine teeth. She is off to school starting next week for a bit of discipline.
I'm off to the US for nearly 3 weeks soon, for work, leaving Jo and dog and cats all alone to fend for themselves! I will be training some new service engineers for a couple of weeks, and visiting some sites to check how they are using our machines. In anticipation of travelling, we went and bought a new camera today - a Panasonic DMC-FZ50 - which isn't the latest or greatest thing on the market, but I think it should meet my needs adequately (the temptation to get an SLR was strong but I resisted...). I should get back the GST when I go travelling. Also bought a carry-on bag for taking on the plane that should be a bit more presentable in business class than a grotty old backpack.

More baby shopping also - clothing clothing and more clothing! Guess it will all get used at some point though. And there's still lots more stuff to buy. Still waiting for the pram we ordered to come in to stock in Australia...
