May Happenings

The blog has been well and truly dominated by the building of the house of late so I thought it was time to get a few snaps up of the daily happenings and some more Seb pics.

Will start with some stuff from May, not a great deal of shots from May, very unlike me not to have my camera in use!


Seb and some whackers or walking sticks


Video of Seb and his sticks


Seb starting to become very attached to his Buzzy Bee, a gift from Niki in NZ.

Mr Fire Engine


Farley guarding the very expensive cubbie house


Seb enjoying a chocolate biscuit at Nanna's


Adam supplying some props for Mak - ok you probably had to be there but I still find it funny so it's going on the blog ;)



May was also a pretty lean month for my 365Project - a photo a day, you can check out the month of May here.

Healesville Build - Handrail, Aircon, Ramp

This week saw the carpenters work on the ramp to the granny flat, start installing the hand rails around the front porch, back deck and linking ramp. Inside plastering hasn't begun just yet but the aircon guys have been busy installing the unit and ducting whilst more deliveries of plasterboard, cornicing and various other bits and pieces have arrived on site.
