Jason surfing accident 28.12.2011

Surfing in Margaret River Jas came down wrong and smashed his left knee on his surf board. Poor Jas is in a lot of pain in Bunbury Hospital while they decide whether to operate there or in Perth. He is worried his surfing days could be over. Nice photo of the beach it looks great, knee not so good! Hang in there Jas

OMG Jas that looks shocking.

Jason moved from Bunbury Hospital to Fremantle Hospital today 4th Jan 2012

His operation is planned for tomorrow - I hope it all goes well.

9th Jan 2012
Jas in now in Kayeela Hospital a Private Hospital in East Fremantle. His leg is worse than they thought. I had a nice visit with him today and they are hoping to operate on Friday. His skating, surfing and footy days are over poor boy has a lot to deal with but is coping well under the circumstances...Keep up the good work Jas.

Jas had the operation at Freo Hospital on the 13th !!!!!!! Poor boy is in a lot of pain but handling it well considering. He will need another Op in about 6 weeks but I think the worst is behind him now.

16th Jan 2012

Photo of the staples in Jas leg. No he is not sitting up !!!!

He had a code blue yesterday and massive pain. It turned out his leg went into shock and they were very concerned for some time.

Poor old Jas had a terrible time, I don't know how he is sooooo strong. I am going to visit tomorrow. He thought he was going to die poor thing.

Some good news though he maybe able to go home a little earlier than he thought which will be good.So keep everything crossed not you Jas it will hurt too much!.

Went to Freo to visit.....food shocking, staff good. Jas excited cause he gets to go home tomorrow. I do wonder after what he has been through whether this is a little too soon!!!! He has another Op in around 6 weeks I guess this one will be on the road to recovery by then.

18th Jan 2012
I drove Jas to Mandurah today and Jess and Zac picked him up. Poor boy I am hoping they did not let him go too early as he felt sick and looked soooo tired. I think he will be happy once home and settled in and sleeping in his own bed. God what a nightmare this has all been for him.

24th Jan 2012
Jas and the family had to drive from Margaret River to Fremantle to get the 47 staples out and an update saying he has a long road ahead. I guess he will get his head around it and cope. They had to get up at 6am and then got there on time and had a 90 minute wait before the long trip home, and in all this heat a lot to deal with but Jas does not complain. He is strong.

14th Feb 2012
Valentines Day and poor old Jas has taken himself off the pain killers and is battling. God it just seems to be one thing after another for him - He has had sooo much to deal with this does not seem fair to me, also he has the next operation hanging over his head. I do hope each day gets easier for him, and he gets a break soon. I think if he was a dog they would have put him down. He does have a handle on it all and I am proud of the way he handles everything it is not nice to think of him going through sooooo much though! Hang in there Jas you are one strong sucker.

21.2.12
Another around trip to Fremantle Hospital with a 4am start! Only to be given conflicting information once more! He has to now massage and icepack his leg, not told that before today. They took the brace off which was frightening for poor Jas they want him to put 5% weight on his leg - when we left Freo before the biggest concern was that he put NO weight at all on his leg!.. We thought Bunbury Hospital had given him the wrong type of Physio, but as it turns out they were right all along................more conflicting information, my you have to be in top of your own health and well being these days.He should have been on anti inflammation tablets all a long for the swelling, no one told him that either..they just keep moving the goal posts. But he has taken it on the chin, and is getting a swimming program set up and looking into other things. They are talking of another Op to remove the scar tissue................just as well he is one strong boy with a level head on his shoulders and Jess and Zac around him to keep him sane. On ya Jas.

Christmas 2011 - Wannanup

We went to Jenny’s on Christmas Eve after Nanny Sharon’s. My bubble maker is a winner as I love bubbles. There are lots of presents under the tree and Santa is due tomorrow morning, I have left a carrot and a drink for him. Dad woke me in the morning and we opened presents. Dad was going on about how hard it is to put the gifts together, Jenny was banging on about Dora and wishing she had invented her - saying then we would all be rich!!!!! We had a roast lunch as it was cooler this year for a change and we all spoke on Skype to Scott in Broome. I had a ride in the big bus with Dad to get Nanny in the park. The nursing home has been closed for days by the Health Dept. so Nanny was very hungry as she stayed in her room so she did not get infected.  I got a lovely pram for my babies, a scooter  like Monty's a helmet to go with it, a canoe for the beach, a golf set, leggo, lots of  Dora things ie: jigsaw, t shirt, book bag, backpack, doll so all in all it was a good day except we ran out of petrol at Preston Beach on the way home…….that’s a story for another day! 

I love bubbles

Leggo is such fun. From Scott and Ange 

Pretty flash Dora pram

Dad woke me up in my new big bed and then went back to sleep...

I got a golf game I may be able to keep Daddy in his old age....

She loved it and so did Dora

Sienna's 2nd Birthday 25th Feb 2011

Daddy decided the Perth Zoo would be a good idea. It was around 40 degrees or more the hottest day of the year  I thought it would too hot and as usual I was right! First mistake was we forgot the pram, lucky they hire them there! We did not see a lot of animals as they were all hot and sleeping, but we had a few laughs.
Our second mistake and the biggest was getting off the freeway cause of the traffic and getting lost! It took us 2 - 3 hours to do the 1 hour trip home!!

We went to the beach and had a swim on the way back………after Duffer daddy brought cider instead of beer. We had a Pavlova and a sing a long before bed. This is when "Pider" started. You picked something up that moved and pider pider. Also a little trouble with your "s" 'ienna, 'nake, 'pider, 'ticker ( which Yankie cousin Joan sends you heaps of) cute.
Julian Bloxam called in when we got home for Pavlova (which I don’t know what I was thinking – as you don’t like eggs!) and you told Daddy you wanted to go to bed, you do love to sleep. You enjoyed the day despite the heat.

Your love of the water and beach also started around this time. Jack (Jenny’s little Jack Russel) also loved the water and use to swim with us. You are a very lovable child who everyone adored and had us fighting over the baby sitting duties. You also loved to help. 

Below are some of my favourite photos taken around

the same time.

Sienna's 1st birthday

Great excitement with the 1st birthday especially for Daddy. He did the streamers and balloons and you had on the cutest pink fairy dress from Nanny Sharon. It was hot as but you had a great time. Scott and Ange came over for lunch and to help set up all your lovely gifts.You got your first taste of frankfurters and thought you had died and gone to heaven, you love em and also fairy bread.
