Sunday, and we've had endless rain since Friday night. The 15 litre bucket in the ceiling must be full, because it started dripping on Roselles chair and she got a wet (seat). Apparently Bainham has had 1.9 metres!!
Dave, Stacey & Isaac came to see us for lunch today, along with Grandad here, and we enjoyed Lester Gibsons nice piece of roast lamb he brought us last weekend.
Isaac was full of stories with Stuart today, just like he was at home with his Mum and I yesterday ... while Stuart and Dave did 'farm jobs'! Well slushed around in their gumboots, looked at the cows and all the water, but managed to trim the hedge down the drive.
Don't tell anyone, but I think I'll be full of mischief before very long!
Each week I'm getting a little more vocal and very much more responsive.
I had a great old chat and goo with Dad...
And when I'm not chatting I've very much found out how to stuff one if not all my fingers in my mouth!
I don't even need a dummy a lot of the time.
And here we have a nice wee happy family... just prior to filling my pullups (Isaac that is) with epic proportions!
Thankfully our spec house went unconditional last week. The 25 page report the new owners got done shows we have to take a spec of paint off the roof somewhere and adjust a striker plate on the entrance door. Think this report writer could find a job in christchurch doing more worthwhile things...
So, we've managed to keep a couple of boys busy for 4 months and cover our costs, what more could we expect?! It did have good views down over the town and out to the estuary.
Now it's time to catch up on the sleep that decided I didn't really need last night :) I can hear Stuart has already logged his in. Love ya.
Nice spec, a bit boring but definitely cool views.. WHAT is Isac doing in all grey.. seriously..! and is that Dad's Ben Sherman shirt David is wearing..?
ReplyDeleteIsaac (spelt I S A A C) is in BLUE and no that is Dave's shirt brought with his own money and from his own wardrobe.
ReplyDeleteGo old Hallensteins!! Even got the rich and famous fooled. Sorry photos probably not great light, but Is(2x a's)c wee outfit is definitely a baby blue :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome pictures! Quite amused that Mark doesn't know how to spell his nephews name! He really must watch what he says in these comments. Very rainy day here too - were meant to update blog - but couldn't get the photos I wanted. Would love to see Isaac again - he looks to be growing up quickly!
ReplyDeleteWe had him fooled, he wouldn't have known any better! I was going to tell him it was a Platinum shirt but not where it came from. It is a good quality 100% cotton shirt though with a little bit of fancy detailing around the cuff :)
