No News is Good News

Hello Friends

I am sorry for our lack of updates over the last month.

Oliver has had all of his end of treatment tests & scans, except for his PET Scan which is scheduled for 26th August. So far the results are good and there is no sign of cancer. PHEW! What a relief! We will have all results by 4th September, so we will endeavour to keep you posted.

Simon has started Uni and had his first prac placement today at Charlies - it was mostly orientation. He also started back at work this week after taking 5 weeks off to have a break with us & get started at Uni.

Oliver and I have managed somewhat of a routine this week. We head off for a walk in the mornings - good for my mind & my thighs! Nowdays though due to having an active little man, this walk at some point must contain some out of the pram time; in the form of pram pushing (by Oliver), walking & playing at the playground. This is all fun stuff which I love, but I find I do have to be in the right frame of mind to partake in it & remain patient. Speaking of patience, mine has been lacking of late & I have found particularly this week, that Oliver is more than willing to test it. It seems everything has become a battleground, from not wanting to wear slippers to constantly wanting to watch the T.V.

There is plenty more to say, but I am keen to snuggle up on the couch with a cuppa & some chocolate.

Au revoir for now!

Lots of Love

Karli (Simon & Oliver)

Good news. You are always in our thoughts. Look forward to great news around the 4th Sept. In the meantime may we all be granted patience to outlast our firstborns!! Lots of love to you all. Rachel, boys and bump!

Oliver is certainly an active little boy and does seem to know his own mind, although he's fairly easily distracted with an alternative too.
We're looking forward to an overnight stay tonight plus a weekend at Dunsborough soon with all the family. Helps keep us young!!
