Busy Week!

Since New Year - Oliver has been so busy...once back in Newcastle we have caught up with friends and had a few playdates.

Oliver has met his new friend Ruby who was born just after Christmas and played with his big friend Quinten. Quinten came over for fun in the sun and then the boys and dads had their first swimming class on Saturday. The beginning of Saturday morning activities!

Oliver seemed to enjoy his swimming although he seemed more interested in being towed up and down the pool by dad rather than kicking or crawling as Rory the lovely instructor was trying to get him to do!

He did not even cry with his first dunking but got tired pretty quickly and slept nicely for two hours! Maybe swimming every day!

The other big event was that Mum and Dad went out for the first time since Oliver was born together! We have had a few coffee's in the early days when Oliver was in hospital and a few quick dash outings to the grocery shop or drop offs when grandparents have been about - but going out for a whole evening - we were not sure we would even be awake!

We went to Endota for a blissful massage, Estabar for a strong coffee, the movies and then dinner! It was absolutely divine - we still remember how to talk to each other and not about Oliver (sorry Oliver) and we even made it to 9pm before the first yawn! There were no phone calls and no I wonder whether he is okay.

It was an early anniversary dinner - this year is fifteen years together!

Of course Oliver had an equally fantastic night with Granny and Grandpapa and we do not want to know how spoilt he was!

A big thank you to Granny and Grandpapa for the babysitting and Megan for the lovely Christmas present.
