First thing we had to do when we got up this morning was to head to the Dr... my throat infection is back and I didn't want to wait for it to get as bad as last time before I did anything about it... (although - it flared up really quickly last time too....but this time I'm not taking any chances)...
When we got back from the Doctors - Blake was snoozing - so Rob took Jade down to the park and then down to the beach so that I could try to get Blake to have a decent sleep... it took me about an hour and a half to get him off to sleep... As I took him out of the car he woke up - so the 5min power nap was enough for him to decide not to keep sleeping... but I managed to convince him that he needed a sleep and then he slept from 11:30 til 2pm... still not a huge sleep - but you can't expect much when every noise in the cabin seems to magnify...
We don't tip toe around him at all, but sometimes when they've gone a week without a decent sleep you figure that it's worth trying to put in a bit of effort so that they can get a decent sleep in so that they can start to catch up a little.....
Rob came back with Jade, so I made lunch for everyone... then Jodie msg'd to say that they'd made it to the caravan park - so I said I'd head over as soon as things were sorted at our end... Rob stayed at the cabin with Jade and Blake... Jade only slept from 1-2pm or so... I guess all the excitement here is just too much for her...
After Jade and Blake's sleep, Jodie and Molly headed over our way... Molly was all dressed to hit the water... I'm standing there thinking that there's no way Jade would want to go in the water as it's still reasonably cool here... especially in comparison to what we're used to... but Jade was happy to get her togs on and head down to the beach with Molly (her new best friend apparently!)...
Blake's first time down on the beach, but it doesn't REALLY count - he stayed in his pram with his ruggy lining....
Molly and Jade heading up to the taps to wash off.... so cute holding hands!

Blake thought Molly was pretty kewl too!
Oh, and we stuck to tradition... Friday night pizza night at the Island...
But these are REAL pizza's... and barely any cheese - so, they're even more healthy than the rubbish we usually find...

So, we've had another great day... now that we've got people to chat to at the caravan park it's even better... we don't have the same crowd that used to come down - I guess everyone has gone their separate ways again... but we're happy with the company we have... Jade loves Molly to bits and Molly seems to enjoy Jade's company too... so it's a win win...
All kids are exhausted right now and all asleep - which you'd want to be the case by this time of night... mind you, Jade has only been asleep about 30mins (and it's currently 10:25pm VIC time)...
Oh yeah, and Rob is snoring... so, fingers crossed I get to sleep!
