Sorry I haven't been about lately, had sooooo much on my plate. Firstly, our trip to Japan was fantastic & we spent too much & ended up paying excess weight to $700 AU odd to get all the stuff home. We didn't want to leave there, we got spoilt & had the best time. The wedding was soooo beautiful & we were at the temple part of the wedding (reserved for close family only). When we got back our youngest daughters boyfriend came home from Western Aust. the day after we got back. Had birthday parties & then got ready for our oldest daughters' wedding..... OH Lord THAT was a drama, all ended up ok on the day. We have also been to a funeral for a friend of ours father that dies suddenly of cancer, he never went to a doctor just to the hospital when he couldn't breathe properly due to the flu & they found he had cancer.

We have also been looking after our grandson, who has just turned 10 months old (Oh how the time flies) I thought I would show you all a pic of him. I made the top he has on & used the freebie dragon from Orientaltouch.com. He loves it as you can see.
Sam is about to take his first steps (walking) he is so close to leaving the comfort of a leg or furniture it isn't funny.
Anyway, Will call in a bit more often now.... Mum's added rooms on for herself so she has somewhere to stay when she comes home to do pottery, etc. We live at her place & she lives with her boyfriend at the moment.
Oh there has been the bit of all of us down with this dreaded flu that hangs on for months, which we are just starting to see the end of (Crossing fingers... hopefully)
Hugs,
Reggie

Sounds like you have been busy for awhile. Hope all of you are soon feeling good again as the flu can zap away all of your energy! Sam is adorable, shirt is darling and that wonderful smile tops it all off! Sounds alot like you are still running, trying to get caught up on everything after the trip. Hope everything soon get back to normal again. Hugs, Linda

OH, he is just too cute for words! His shirt looks great! What are you going to do with all that fabric you brought home with you? My son is getting married on Oct. 10th and they are going to Japan for a 3 week honeymoon. They spent 2 weeks in Tokyo last time but are going to a different area this time. I have no clue, not familiar with Japan at all but they love it. They met 10 years ago in Japanese language class in college.

Thanks for the update, it sounds as if you have been very busy. Which part of Japan did you visit?
How many outfits did the bride wear? The Japanese bride I saw and the one who's dvd that I saw each had 3 different outfits...

I went to the country area called Kure, it's about an hour from Hiroshima (went to peace park there... BOY what an eye opener!!!!) scary what humans can do. The bride wore 6 different outfits, they started with the traditional bridal outfit (white with hood) then went through kimonos to western style. The bride & groom didn't get to eaat as such (too busy getting changed & having different presentations) they actually went out with friends after & had dinner. The whole experience was unforgetable.

Thankyou all for your thoughts & YES Sam is going to be a lady killer, we just found out he is going to have a new brother or sister in May next year, the parents just got married & of course this was a "honeymoon baby", I am thrilled but still worry as she is the breadwinner of the family, so don't know how they going to cope $$$$ wise. Anyway, they won't be getting rid of it as I have always been very strong about that.... If it's meant to be, it's meant to be!!
Sam has got his first top front tooth finally & the second is not far away, he is walking, holding onto furniture, so it won't be long now before he's running a muck.... literally.
Hugs,
Reggie

Grandchildren are such a pleasure ! I never thought that I could love anyone as much as I love my Grandson and you sound the same.He is just gorgeous. I have enjoyed every moment of my Grandson - both good and bad - especially when we tell each other that "You are the best Granny/Grandson in the world"
The other day I told hime that he was better than anything I could of dreamt of having and he burst into tears :-) Said it was the nicest thing that anyone had ever said to him. They only get cuter as they get older, he is 9 in
December. Enjoy every moment and take lots of pics 'cause they grow so fast. Alex is referred to by his uncles as MPG. This I finally discovered means "most photographed grandchild" Good to have you back posting.

Hi Reggie, we would not have had the pleasure yet, but my name is Alice and I have just become addicted to cute, I am also an Aussie and a proud grandma. I am sure we will have lots to talk about on cute.
