Well what an exciting week it has been this week! The most exciting bit being the birth of Sheree and Alex's first child, Jacinta Alexis Rimmer on Wednesday 22nd Feb at 6.30am. She weighed 6 pounds 15 and everything went really well. I have met her once and she is of course gorgeous with lots of brown hair and blue eyes.

Now to the rest of the week. Monday I had what I thought was my last Bresagenies game (found out we're in semi-finals tomorrow despite having only won 1 game all season!). Tuesday I had my first intro session for uni. My first subject is Critical Thinking and reasoning for Health Professionals. I met some of the people in my course, most of them are Indian Dentists and Pakistanie Doctors. I was the second youngest there and the only one doing business. As this is an external subject I won't have much contact with these people but hope to have more to do with them in the rest of the course.

After the excitement of Wednesday with Sheree I went and had a nice dinner of Noodle Box on the beachfront watching the sunset with Randall, a great way to spend an evening. Thursday I went and saw Sean and Leanne and Jasmine and Tamika. All were doing well, although a little tired. There was great excitement as the girls had slept through the night the previous night, but mum and dad didn't sleep for worrying about them! I'm sure they'll get used to it though ;) I then had taekwondo. Friday I was hoping to visit Sheree and Jacinta again only to find they'd left the hospital and headed home. I called but Sheree is so tired she didn't want any visitors, so I hope to see them later in the week. Saturday was fairly relaxing which was nice, I started some study, it's so hard to get back into!! I was going to go to taekwondo, but with all the rain we had friday night my dojang was flooded! Tracy also arrived home safe and sound, with lots of new things to show me. I didn't know someone could buy so much jewellery!!

Today Randall had another Triathalon, and did an excellent time of 1:14. I have been helping out lately (as they are run by a lady at work), so I singlehandedly cut up 4 huge watermelons and 3 cases of bananas, as well as pouring drinks, moving tables and being handy. I got rather sunburnt which isn't good, especially as I spent the day (when I wasn't busy working) cold! I'm now just winding down and focusing on the week ahead. Renee and I have a glass bead making course coming up on Saturday, and Randall and I are headed to the fringe to see some comedians at the zoo which will be good.

Well take care all, and keep posting and commenting, I love hearing everything that's going on!

Hey L, are you surrounded by babies at the moment or what! So many nappies...

Congrats to S&L on the sleeping-through night, and We'll see you when you get here.

I know, I think i'm scaring Randall! With the twins, Sheree's baby and the impending critter, poor fellow all i'm ever doing is talking about babies. I don't want one now I promise!!

Ah, he'll be fine. A little fear is a healthy thing.
