We celebrated Abbey's first birthday on Saturday (actual birthday not until tuesday), which was a great event - mostly due to Kylie and Stacey's cooking skills - see pics for examples! Abbey has been a bit sick but she made an appearance to keep the crowd happy. Stacey, Chelsea and Elliot are staying with us at the moment, so apart from everyone getting sick it has been fun!! We had an orphan red kangaroo joey dropped into the house tonight. We played animal carers for an hour until we palmed it off to the wildcare mob. 2 babies plus one other child is probably all we can handle at the moment, not to mention the dogs were pacing the backyard licking their lips waiting for a snack.
