Well, AAMI has officially declared that our car is a write-off from the flood. We’ve signed the purchase contract for a Hyundai, but it won’t get off the ship till late next week, and then it’ll be another 2 weeks till it gets to the dealer. Thankfully a generous brother has lent us his car [...]
You would think that by 4th year I would’ve shaken off the trepidation that comes at the beginning of every college year. But greater the trepidation, greater the excitement! Pray that the numerous pages that we’ll read every week helps us to know God better.
The AAMI guy came this afternoon and couldn’t drive his tow truck down to our garage. He’ll bring another one tomorrow. But he tried – but failed – to start the car, even with a jump start kit – so he reckons its a write-off. Just recovered our CDs from the glove compartment … soaked [...]
We arrived home last night to find our car wet on the inside (yup, on the inside!) Apparently Anzac Pde was so flooded that it made the news, so needless to say our garage in the basement didn’t stand a chance. No car for a little while … will be tricky …
Havn’t posted much on our blog for the last two months … I’ve found it hard to reflect and blog when our travels makes the day-to-day rhythm irregular. But we are flying back tomorrow, so hopefully that’ll translate to more updates here – stay tuned!

Time goes fast – Micaiah is already 1 year old! I can still remember when we cradled upstairs him in our arms, and now he is propping himself up standing whenever and wherever he could =)
Grandpa and grandma has a big party planned today, so we are hoping Micaiah is up to seeing all these [...]
Micaiah made the transition from crawling to assisted standing in no time at all! He can now prop himself up on anything at a suitable height, and use his arm strength to balance.
As the weather warmed up, he’s also had more outdoor time. Slightly scared of the grass though …
Rocking it with an Elmo guitar!
A bit slow on the upload, but here’s some photos when Micaiah met the relatives back in July.

(Disclaimer for those who really do know their coffee: drinking ‘outside’ coffee is like our fun things to do away from our good ol’ Maccona, so please don’t take these thoughts too seriously)
Here’s a [...]
