LIFE IN AUSTRALIA

It's been 4.5 months since we arrived and everyone is adjusting well. Everyone is starting new here and both Brandon and Brandee was upset with the cold weather and fell sick the 1st week we arrived. It must have been all the running around trying to get all of us settled. We gotta buy a car quickly because is expensive to keep on renting a car and carseats. It cost us almost AUD900 for 8 days. Went around buying some necessary things for the house while waiting for our shipment to arrive in a month time.

Brandon started his 1st day of school on the 20th April. It was tough initially as he couldn't understand much of the aussie accent. He got used to the accent at the end of term 2 and this week he started his Term 3. He is progressing well in school and slowly making more friends and feeling the sense of belonging.

Is winter now and everyone is trying to keep themselves warm. The kids acclimatise fast and is taking the cold well. Mommy hate cold and still struggling to adjust. Daddy always said mommy is cold blooded because mommy's palm and feet is most of the time cold even in Msia. Mommy couldn't take the cold beginning of winter and got daddy to quickly buy electric blanket:) It was the most comfortable night ever after having the blankets:) It was perfect for mommy.. Swine flu is everywhere especially in Victoria which is where we lived. Therefore, the kids are boosted with plenty of vitamins to avoid getting the flu. Weather is sometimes unpredictable even with the weather forecast. I guess we just have to get use to it and prepare for the worst weather when we are out.
