Feeling festive!

This week Scout and I switched roles alittle as her business kicked into overdrive. Normally I'm at work full time and Scout is part time shuffling her appointments around to fit in with the kids and school / kinder / daycare drop offs and pick ups. But this week Scout has been working crazy hours with some 7.30am starts and a couple of 1am finishes so I have been sorting the girls which has been nice. I often feel like I miss out on alot of stuff with them because of my work so it was nice this week to let work take a back seat and spend more time with the them - as crazy and hectic as it has been!

On top of juggling the girls, I have also caught a touch of Christmas fever this week which is kinda nice since I had trouble getting into the spirit of things last year. Over the last month or so I have been buying up on solar christmas lights to deco the outside of the house so I can't wait to put them up next weekend. Jazz and I also got stuck into making our traditional mango chutney which we have with our Christmas ham and give to others as gifts. Making mango chutney is one thing that never fails to make me smile. It's my nan's recipe so I love it and it was cute having Jazz help this year with chopping up all the apples ;)

Also this week I had my post op review which was all good so now I'm just waiting around for my period to kick start our last cycle for this year :) My GP had to write me a new referral for my FS as my old one is about to expire, so as of the start of December we will have been offically on the ART merri-go-round for a year. Hopefully we are in for an little pre Christmas surprise that will graduate us from that ride and onto a much more exciting one in the new year!

Mmmmm ... all that goodness simmering down to pure yum!

The finished product ... ready for Christmas :)
