This time of the year...

Yes folks, it's that time of the year. The time when the Swanplant gets overcrowded with stripey goodness. The fat caterpillars then hang in a J and their skin peels off revealing a beautiful chrysalis complete with gold embellishments. Son and daughter have their fair share of holding these delights remembering to swap them every now and then as they need to eat alot to turn into a butterfly.



Went for a drive over the hill and saw another fat thing hanging off the wharf...click if you can wait for it to load..



...alot of people were leaning off the lookout getting photos and some just staring at how huge this ship is. My son just kept saying "there are boats on it!" which was so cute. It is the Sapphire Princess, apparently the biggest cruise ship in the world, very impressive.

Knitting news: finished hubby's hat, may turn into daughters hat.(Black is so hard to take a photo of isn't it?). Started and almost finished a Wombat knitted stuffed toy. It's called Wally, but daughter may rename it a girly name yet as it is hers. Son now wants me to do him one too. Cool. Photo when it looks something less like I have skinned a rabbit!

Son is having school visits last week and this week, and he is showing interest in starting school so that's exciting for him and me. I just hope they can keep him busy so he doesn't get bored.
