House, tick.

Ok. So after our visit to Melbourne last weekend, we put in one application for a house to rent and were told today that we have been successful! Now all we need to do is finish the paper work.

Next up is Day Care for Charlotte. There isn't much available though there are lots of great centers nearby. We have one that we are looking further into, fingers crossed that it's what we are after.

Mum's Birthday

Hippo Birdies Two Ewes to my mum for last week. As you may have read over at Amy and also Tim's blogs, we were all up at Tahlee from Thursday. For a better rendition of said weekend, check out both of their entries.

My contribution will be that Kristin, Charlotte and I had a fantastic long weekend and now have to get 'back on track' with our eating.

Another entry should follow towards the end of this week to give an update on Melbourne...

Moving to Melbourne

Big News time.

As most of you who read this Blog will know, we are moving to Melbourne.

We have two weeks annual leave in Queensland at the end of March and I am due to start my job in Melbourne the week starting the 31st March.

It's a big move for us as we know no one down there. We have some friends of friends etc but no one close... I'm sure we'll be fine though.

Here's a recent pic of Charlotte wandering around the house in Kristin's shoes!

Hey Ya

Bits and pieces going on...

Kristin got a raise to a new position at work, well done!!

Charlotte started a new Day Care (that we are now calling "Pre-School") and is doing well but realises she can stay up a little longer at night and get attention in the morning if she insists that she doesn't want to go to new Pre-School.

I'm plugging away at work. Happy as Larry.

Caught a Bug

Kristin & I seem to have caught a bug... the Deutschland bug!!

We have both been hankering to travel again and to also head back to Germany. I had thought that since we did such a thorough job of seeing Germany that we could move on to traveling elsewhere later... I'm not too sure that will be likely. With my job I have an opportunity every now and then to do some travel. Just recently there was a job being printed in Germany near Düsseldorf, if my manager was unable to attend then I would have gone but alas he was fit and well and it was a success (for him). Late next week he will be heading back there for one day! Now as rough as that sounds traveling for 45-odd hours for what would be roughly 5 hours work, I would love to do it just to get back to Germany.

Anywho, things are cool with us. We're finally sorting out our Tax from 05-06. Daycare prices will be going up 8%!! at Charlotte's daycare... we don't want to pull her out but we are looking at alternatives.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MUM!!!!!!!!!!

Though the last post was Jan 3, Happy New Year, Happy Valentines! Easter is just around the corner and it looks like a doosie this year. You can put money down on Nougat Eggs all round!!
