Next Stop....Three!

Well it's official my "babies" are 2.5 years old yesterday. Only seems 5 minutes ago they turned two, and in just a few weeks my other "baby" turns 8 years old..where is time going?
Well I haven't blogged all week as it just seemed to race past so will try a quick catch up now while Ab and G are at swimming.
The twins had their first bus ride on Wednesday which they enjoyed immensely! It was actually funny how quiet they were on the bus just taking everything in, looking out the windows and all around the inside of the bus. We went to the bigger local shopping centre and spent a couple of hours there with my Mum before heading home again. I renewed my passport, posted some cards, bought some treats for the kids, some fresh bread for lunch etc Nothing too wild really..but they sure slept good at afternoon naptime! They actually slept 3 days straight this week I think, so we aren't quite having a nap every day but pretty close to it. It's all better than the previous week when they went with NO sleep!
Yesterday we took Joe and Scar into the city for new shoes, leaving Ab behind with Nana. Of course Joe got his new shoes in 5 minutes but the girl version of the same shoe they didn't have in her size (typical) so I am hoping they can order them in for me fairly soon before she wears completely through the bottom of her current ones.
After shoe shopping we headed back towards home and decided to buy a Playstation 2. We have wanted one for ages, but couldn't justify the price but have finally given in now they are less than $190. We had been waiting for the Toy sales to start to see if anyone offered a good package with games or extra controllers but so far the best we could find was the console and a controller for $186. We ended up going store to store for hours as everyone had boxes out for this playstation deal but no-one had any stock..and for some reason the silver playstation was $10 dearer..we eventually went back and bought the silver one and they even let us have it at the cheaper price, and we got a half price controller! Sothen of course we went and splurged on games...oops!
Saturday night was spent smashing up buildings, racing cars (at which I completely suck!!) and playing 18 holes of Disney golf! Quite fun actually and Ab is so excited to have some games to play and it will help keep her occupied now she is on two weeks holidays in awful weather. It also helps her behaviour as she knows she won't get to play it if she is a crankypants!
Did some designing during the week which I was pretty happy with and am hoping to get some more done soon and will hopefully be able to show it off soon.

oh on the downhill slide to three now... scary hey!
I hear you on the shoe thing.. what I usually want is the same pair but in two colours but do you think they ever have red and black in the same damn size? or even two pairs the same in the same size? And the stupid target sales person who says 'by why do you want two the same anyway?'.. LOOK IN THE PRAM LOVE!
I am going to open a shop for multiples with lots of the same things in different colours and loads of the same sizes!
