Karen has been getting these false contractions over the last couple of days, which haven't proved to be too painful, but they make her belly go tight as a drum. You could bounce coins off of it, I swear.

Funny how I can sit here and muse about false contractions. I imagine its going to be a whole different story when they are real contractions!

Other baby news, our friends Ben and Beck, welcomed another addition to thier family this morning, little(!) Thomas Isaac, measuring 55cm and tipping the scales at an eye watering 10lb6. Congratulations indeed!

I have just a couple of photos I want to share , the first is of our mate Vanessa getting sworn into the air force last week. I wonder how many pushups she has done over the last few days?


Second is of course, our new car!
