FIJI & a bit of an update

Comment Published at 04:3504:356 comments6 comments28 Visits28 VisitsReport

 Hi all,

Just an update really... about a month ago we went to FIJI we stayed on Plantation island and had a ball and I really think H enjoyed himself to.  

We went with all of my family my mum and dad, my 2 sisters and their families as well, all up there was 13 of us.

We spent most of the time swimming at either the pool or the beach.

We went on the Glass bottom boat, saw lots of fish.  I took time out and went to a local market on the other side of the island. 

At night we had H baby sat by one of the locals (2nd last pic) Most of the time the kids went to an early dinner then went off to the kids club while we all ate in peace!  LOL  Henry loved being baby sat.    

As you can see the weather was just perfect.  I got up in the morning and thought what will I wear today, oh yeah my swimmers.  Wore them all day until I got changed for dinner.    Hardly wore shoes at all.   

It was so relaxing, every one had time out one way or another J went fishing, my B-I-L played golf, some went snorkling, and the girls had massages, or pedicures..  It was fantastic having family around even though sometimes they gave me the S**ts..  They were really good and took H for awhile so we could have some time out.   Like wise we did the same with their kids.   

The funny part was on the way back from the island.  It was choppy and the boat was rocking hard. (fall of your seat type stuff) H was sitting on Daddys lap each bump he would say whoaaaaa  whoaaa  and then he started saying "no more boat"  he must have been feeling sick but at least he didn't vomit!!

Would we do it again Hell Yeah!

H has now turned two and had a lovely time.  we had a small party for him and we gave him a train table that he just loves he walks around it with his trains talking to himself.    

H is loving childcare and I can barely say good bye to him now.  He is talking heaps and now says "Mine Mine" LOL we are trying to beak that habbit but I think it comes from childcare.

H has started swimming lessons the first day he cried as he wanted to get in by himself naked.  Needless to say we left with him crying and wondered if we should continue.  We did continue and the next lesson he spent 10min on the stairs in the water still wanting to be on his own.  He soon joined the class but didn't do everything that was asked of him.  He is getting there and we will continue to persist with it.

Hope everyone is well..........
