So near and yet so far……

The most interesting thing of late is that Isabel appears to be going to crawl anytime now!
She’s up on her hands and knees, rocking backwards and forwards……..before moving herself backwards! She has spent many a minute wedged under the sofa or very cross because she has reversed herelf away from her toys!

Our Antenatal group were here yesterday and were extremely impressed – there are even bets floating about that she will be on the move before we meet again in a fortnight (no pressure or anything!) but we’ll have to wait and see on that one!

So all we have to do now is encourage her to figure out about moving forwards – and then will come the joy of stair-gates, child proofing the house and wondering what on earth to do with the cat food so that Isabel doesn’t eat it!?

Bad news for Lions fans …

Unfortunately, the result of the all South Island clash this weekend was Otago 24 Canterbury 19. This meant that Otago moved up to third place, ahead of North Harbour, and means that, regardless of the results next weekend the Lions won’t make it to the semi-finals. They are five points behind Harbour, but even a bonus point win (ie five points) would mean that Harbour get through on the head to head result (Harbour beat us in our first home game of the season). D’oh!

Oh well. There’s always next year …..
