Settling In



On the 19th on Feb we moved onto our new place. We now have all (most of) our furniture and belongings and it is feeling a lot more like home.

We've been in this place for 4 weeks now and we are really enjoying the space here and especially the pool.

Lara turned 6 on the 1st March and had a couple of her mates over to play.





The same week that Sam learnt
to walk, he learnt to swim....in floaties.

Here he is....




Here's some photos of our place.




We are now getting into the routine of things here and life certainly
is easy when the school bus literally picks up and drops off the kids at the front gate.

Life in Singapore



We'll I thought I 'd give "blogging" a go and anyone who is interested can get on line and read what we're up to.

Last Friday was moving day for us and for the 12th time in our life together, Tim and I moved into another place. Yes 12 times is absurd, and no is doesn't get any easier! I hate it. I will not be completely content until everything is in it's place. Tim, well he's easy fixed. The Singapore 'Foxtel' guy came and Tim's world is complete!

I, on the otherhand, am still looking for where the unpackers put everything in the kitchen.

The kids are so excited about their new bedroom and loft. Lara had a loft in Melbourne, but this one we can fit into and it has an aircon in it! I think there are 16 aircons in this place. We better watch out for that electricity bill!!

We definitely have space in this house. We got really lucky we think as it was the best house we had seen by a mile and we saw quite a few. There is 2 spare bedrooms so friends and family we are waiting for visitors....

The best thing about this place is the pool...


I will take more photos of the place soon but I feel like I should clean up the mess, finishing the unpacking. Plus I need to find the camera. Packed up somewhere!

In the meantime here a some photos some of you may not have seen.

I've been a bit all over the place with the emails lately and I have replied to some but not others yet. When we're completely settled I promise to catch up.

Here's an update.

Lara and Daniel started at the Australian International School Singapore
