Holiday plans and family news

Ten months ago we were hoping to be going to London for Krissy and Glen's wedding and then traveling on to Italy for a long holiday. Then after we found out we were pregnant we reduced the holiday to just going to London. When we found out we were having twins we had to cancel the trip to London as it would be too late in the pregnancy. Instead we decided we would go on a holiday to Fiji in early February. Then the rains came to Fiji and we read stories of people stuck in hotels or stuck in the airport. So we canceled our holiday to Fiji and now we're going to spend a week in Noosa. We can't wait.

In baby news Meeks is doing well, she's having more success sleeping after having problems a couple of weeks ago. The babies are kicking lots. It's weird to think there are two of them wriggling around in there bumping in to each other. Mitchy is getting into the idea of having little brothers, but I'm sure doesn't really understand that they are in mummy's tummy.

Mitch is growing up fast. His speech has come along a lot recently. He used to be mute when the phone was presented to him. Now he understands that there is someone on the other end of the phone and that he can talk to them as if they were right there in the room. He has two new sayings. He likes to say, "Check it oooooouuuut!" and "Awwwww, come on!". In fact he talks a lot and asks questions, lots of questions. Neither Meeks or I are terribly verbose so I don't know where Mitch gets it from. He's also becoming really imaginative. The other day he was making imaginary snow men in imaginary snow and throwing imaginary snow balls ... it was 30+ degrees!
