After such a quiet weekend, with really not too much to note, it seems I should quickly fill you in on any new developments that occurred today.
It seems that Joel and I have a new title, that is according to Gracie. She has taken to calling Joel 'Dad' frequently and has tried 'Mum' out a few times on me, often placing the word at the end of a sentence so it reinforces it newness all that much more. For example, " Ok, Dad" or 'Thanks Mum". Of course, to many of you this would seem normal, but when you've been called Daddy or Mummy for so long, being called such a grown up version of your name seems slightly surreal. Is she getting older or just testing us?
In other news, we celebrated the gas being hooked up today with a last meal out dinner. There was no time to run to the shops and prepare a 3 course extravaganza, so we went to the local. Much to the girls delight also ordered dessert at the end of the meal. Isabelle requested chocolate cake and couldn't believe her eyes when it came. They were smitten with it, and full too!
