THE DAYS OF THE WEEK

Deqlan playing his new alphabet game- he got these gorgeous baby einstein books from Debbie in Canada, for his 1st birthday! He decided to take them up 'jumble' them up, to make it a challenge , then he lines then up in the order of the alphabet, and proudly walks past each one, pointing and saying the letter.

Another alphabet game - Grandpa's sailing chart, and flags and symbols - of course you realise the attraction ...the alphabet is said, while running around holding the flag


Just hangin'



I found a NEW gluten /casein/sugar/ yeast/ soya free treat! Waffles! Look how lovely our waffle machine makes them into little hearts. At first Deqlan wasnt to sure, but eventually got the taste for them and LOVES them! Mark and I loved them so much we had them for breakfast to, you actually cant taste the difference with this mix from Glutagon

Logan painting one of her Christmas presents from Kevin and Louise, she was very keen to pose when i told her i was going to show you guys!

Deqlan enjoying listening to music with Logan, he also enjoyed adjusting the volume - his favorite song out of Logans collection? Hannah Montana 'boom clap' song

Nanna and Deqlan

Grandpa, Meggie and Nan on their 56th wedding anniversary!

Grandpa , Me and Nan

Grandpa, Mom and Nan

The anniversary couple, we are so proud of you Grandpa and Nan and so grateful for God giving you so many happy years and we pray and trust there will be many more

Beautiful Deqlan Ross

Keaton John!

Stunning flowers from Meggie

Deqlan and Keaton on 'Tsunami watch' on Saturday- i actually stayed up till 1am the next morning watching and waiting for the tsunami to hit Hawaii, thank Our Lord nothing serious happened!

Keaton bringing Big Grandpa and Nan their flowers , which were nearly bigger then him!

We had a great weekend, starting off with wishing Big Grandpa and Nan for their 56th wedding , what an achievement! Grandpa also recieved a blessing for him and Nan at Mass on Saturday evening.

Logan was with us this weekend, so Deqlan was very happy to be able to play with her, while she was listening to her cds. Logan was most impressed with Deqlans spelling skills and increase on vocab!

The latest in Deqlans amazing achievements is

Saying ' THE DAYS OF THE WEEK ARE: MONDAY, TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY, FRIDAY, SAT UR DAY, SUNDAY' I couldnt believe my ears!

Last night, Deqlan started saying ' HELLO. HELLO. MY NAME IS 'CLAYTON'" He is trying to say Deqlan, but it sounds like Clayton, bless him!

Other sentences include:

A MOUSE IS LITTLE

I CLIMB UP STAIRS

I KICK A BALL

PLEASE MAY I HAVE MILK

A CALF IS A BABY SHEEP (WE GOT TO WORK ON CHANGING CALF TO LAMB FOR THIS SENTENCE)

All of the above learnt from the love and learning Dvds, leant from dearest Loren and Kai - we are going to order our kit and cant wait to get it! Deqlan has been asking for 'fingers' which is dvd 2 of the set, and i just say its on its way my boy!

Deqlan also says ' SURVIVOR, PAY, MNET' He is speaking about the show, Survivor, which is sponsored by Pick n Pay, shown on Mnet! How clever my gorgeous boy!

Deqlans tummy seems to have calmed down, thank goodness, and the hitting, biting, stomping and scratching seem to have come down a notch - so definitely caused by the candida i would say. Appetite definitely better , but still not to keen on new things, but that wont stop me trying!

Please can i ask you for your prayers for the following cancer warriors around the world who are going through a very tough time at the moment
