Four months on...

It is hard to believe Buster is now four months old. He is a gorgeous little boy with a very placid nature and fits into the family perfectly. Henry and Milly love him completely and although we don't want our B-Boy to grow up too fast, we can't wait to see how he interacts and plays with his older siblings when he is a little older.

What a difference four months makes.

Say "cheese" Buster.

Buster Boy is almost four months old. He doesn't say much but has an infectious smile and occasionally he lets out a bit of a chuckle.

Acca Dacca

Ever since my dad played me a live version of AC/DC's song "Thunderstruck" turned up extremely loud on a car stereo I've wanted to see them in concert. So when it was announced they were touring Australia I got excited. The complication, I was pregnant and knew our baby would only be three months old when AC/DC played Sydney, plus now that we live in Newcastle there is a bit of travel involved - how could it be done? I decided it was all too hard and by the time I had changed my mind the concert was sold out. Boo hoo.

That is where knowing the right people can come in handy. A friend, the wonderful Jen, works at the stadium AC/DC were to play at and organised tickets for us and parking to make it easy for our entry and exit (timing is everything when you're a breastfeeding mum). We also booked the services of Nanoo to sleep over and babysit. So now it was all organised. A night out just the two of us (can't remember when that last happened), and it was to see AC/DC.



We left Newcastle at 5.30pm and got home at 2.30am. My boobs were ready to explode (having missed a couple of feeds) and we were sooooo tired. No chance of a sleep in when you have three young kids.

So how were AC/DC? AWESOME!!!!! They were loud, they were sexist, they shook us all night long. Everything they did was huge - the stage, the props, the lighting, the guitar solos. They had a train burst through the stage, then later a massive blow up doll straddled the train, there were exploding cannons, and fireworks. The fans were many and varied and just as loud. I think there were 70,000 people there, from scary biker looking types, to mums and dads with their kids.

Loud, louder, loudest - they turned it up to 11.

"Whole Lotta Rosie" was certainly one giant blow up doll. The band members were ant sized compared to her.
