All quiet on the home front

It's been a bit quiet on the home front here.

I was away at a conference last week so it was Jackie and Theo's first nights alone, unfortunately Theo had his 12 week vaccinations and reacted badly. He had a fever and was generally quite restless, he didn't sleep very well so it was tough on Jackie but she battled through on her own very well.

Since the vaccinations Theo hasn't been sleeping through the night like he was before but otherwise he's back to normal. Happy and smiley.

Here's a video of Theo working out in his gym. Theo likes to get up at about 6am, have a protein shake and get to the gym while mum gets some more sleep.

He likes to chew on his fist but I can assure you there are lots of smiles behind the fist.


When I got back from my conference on Friday I was greeted with a birthday cake and pile of presents which was a lovely surprise. My actual birthday was very low key as I was at the conference, I didn't tell anyone it was my birthday so there was no fuss.

Here's a couple of pictures of me and Theo blowing out my birthday candles. Theo clearly doesn't get it yet.





That's all for now, I hope all our kiwi readers have an enjoyable Waitangi long weekend.
