Max goes to Women's Retreat

Sorry for the lack of blogging recently! No real excuses except that Max has been a bit sick with a cough and hasn't been sleeping much during the day, which makes it tricky for me to find time to blog.

Anyway, a weekend or two ago Max and Nanny came along with me to our church Women's Retreat up at Coolum. The ladies who organised the sleeping arrangements really looked after us and gave us our own room with a bathroom, which was really handy since it meant Max could have some decent sleeps without disturbing the other ladies and babies (or being disturbed by them!).


All three of us had a great weekend - me because I got to hang out with friends and take a bit of a break from full-time Max-care, Nanny because she got to spend time with her newest grandson (and me I guess) and Max because he got to see his Nanny, have a change of scenery from home and beat up the younger babies who were there (Nathaniel and Zephaniah in the photo - also there were Jesse and Talaini).

Over the weekend we got to spend lots of time relaxing and chatting, listening to speakers, singing praise and worship songs, eating good food, dressing up in fancy clothes and enjoying or providing a bit of pampering. Max was very well behaved for the weekend, but I'm looking forward to next year even more because he will then be weaned and can stay with Daddy instead!

Thanks to the ladies from Logan Church for organising an excellent weekend away - you did an awesome job!
