I am writing this from a departure lounge in Minneapolis. Its -21 degrees outside. I have been travelling now fro 24 hours and still have not reached final destination - Las Vegas. Flight was delayed at Jhb International. We eventually left at 03:00 in the morning.

Now face a three hour flight to Vegas. Its 21h00 here and about 04h00 in SA, so you can imagine what i feel like.

Anyway they are about to start boarding, so gotta go.

I'm off to Las Vegas in a few hours. Going there for a sales conference. Spending 60 hours on the ground and 46 hours in the air getting there and back. Just perfect!!!

I am going to try and buy a pram and a digital video camera while I am there.

Laurie and her mom are going to be looking after the twins until I'm back on Friday night.

Stunning flowers from Inge and Mike

One very proud sister. 

Dominic home at last. 

Some of my painting handywork. 

Yesterday was another red letter day. Dominic came home from the hospital at last. Had a rather sleepless night. Just what I needed for my first day back at work.

I will post a picture of the twins in the coming days. Seeing them sleeping side-by-side at home really brought the truth home. We are parents to twins. Oh my goodness.

Emma-Leigh has taken to engineering this holiday. She has been building all types of structures with her Duplo blocks. It has been quite impressive to watch. I do not know what suddenly clicked this holiday that made her want to build. It must be a developmental thing!

It is midday at work and I need a pair of matchsticks to keep my eyelids open. I have a sachet of Vitathion burning a hole in my shirt pocket. I am trying to hold off as long as possible before I have it. I do not think I am going to be able to resist for much longer. The secret of course is not to wait too long and find your boss shaking you awake. As you lift your head the drool is still coming out of your mouth and contributing to the already rather large puddle on the desk.

OK, so its not that bad! The good thing is that we feel low we can just setup a conference call with Michele and Gavin and soon Inge and Mike and then by April smile all knowingly when Len and Rosanne call.

Congratulations Michelle and Gavin on the birth of Mathew yesterday.

SOS

It is Suck Or Starve time for Dominic at the moment. They have removed the tube from his nose and her feeding him exclusively from the bottle. They are going to do this for three days and then assess. If he does well during the SOS then we can have Dominic home, which will be great. Keep your fingers crossed.

Happy New Year!

Our New Year's resolution. Get as much sleep as possible!

Here's wishing you all a very happy New Year. May it be filled with good things and all your wishes come true.
