Finally Some Progress


After allot of red tape and fees we have finally broken ground. We now have 6 pegs in the ground - 2 blue and 4 red lol

Drainage has been laid and now it looks like things are on the way - they say it's going to take 10 weeks to get it up, but we'll see ;)

STILL WAITING TO BREAK GROUND

After months of cutting through red tape we've finally got the go ahead with the sleepout. A loan has been approved.

Instead of building a two-bedroom house and a garage, we have to build a two-bedroom sleepout (no oven). All thanks to Transpower - "We (Maria and I) can't build under their powerlines, but it is OK for them (Transpower) to have lines over anybody's property!!!" GO FIGURE!!!!!

Anyway, hopefully we will be breaking ground in a month......

The Miracle Of Birth


I witnessed the most amazing thing today as Maria was giving birth to our baby girl - little Lola Ana-Maria Togiaono-Lum. Born on 13/01/2010 at 2:16pm weighing in at 7lbs 7oz. It was a quick delivery as baby Lola was almost out before Maria was at the bed - not even 5mins before Maria got out of the wheelchair and onto the bed!!!


TODAY IS THE DAY

Got a phonecall this morning after work from Maria saying the contractions had begun..... We will be welcoming baby Lola Ana-Maria Lum anytime soon :-)
