Vilken bra service!
What an amazing service!

I mandags hade Layla lite feber pa morgonen sa jag gav henne Panadol (typ Alvedon). Under dagen hann jag ge henne de 4 doserna som man kan och hoppades att hon inte skulle behova nagon mer medicin innan morgonen. Men hon vaknade och kraktes, hade over +39 graders feber, var supersnorig och sag ut att ma sa daligt. Sa jag ringde sjukvardsupplysningen for att se om jag kunde ge mer Panadol. Men skoterskan jag pratade med sa att jag borde se till att hon att hon blev sedd av en lakare. Sa hon fragade om min familjelakarmottagning hade after hours service och det visade det sig att vi har. Sa man ringer ett nummer och da kommer en lakare hem till en. Sa tidigt pa morgonen dok det upp en lakare har hos oss. Han sa att Layla var rod i halsen och att febern berodde pa det. Det var bara att kora pa med mer Panadol och sedan sa han att han ville att de skulle komma ut igen pa kvallen for att kolla upp henne igen. Hur bra service ar inte det. Det var sa himla skont att slippa bege sig till nagot sjukhus mitt i natten. Istallet fortsatte vi att vila oss i var sang tills lakaren dok upp. Hur bra som helst! Dessutom ar det gratis nar man anvander sig av den har servicen for barn. Hursom sa kom en lakare ut igar kvall och hon kom fram till att Layla kanske kommer ha feber imorgon (idag) men att hon ar pa battringsvagen. Hon hade ratt. Efter imorse har Layla inte haft feber och hon har varit sitt glada sjalv igen. Skont.

Ha det bra. Kram, Agneta

On Monday morning Layla had a bit of a temperature so I gave her Panadol through the day. I gave the last dose that you are allowed before she went to bed and hoped she would be ok. She woke up in the middle of the night with a really high temperature over +39 degrees, she vomited, had a runny nose and looked really terrible. So as I couldn't give her any more Panadol and I didn't have any Nurofen at home I called 13Health. The nurse was concerned and asked me to call the after hours service. I was aware of its existence but you don't really think about how good it is until you use it. Anyway, a doctor turned up in the early hours and had a look at Layla. She had a really red throat so the doctor put it down to that it caused the fever. So instead of having to drag a small child to hospital in the middle of the night we could rest and wait for the doctor to turn up at our home. That is what I call an amazing service. Not only is it great, when you use it for children it is also free.

Layla had a little bit of a temperature this morning but now she is back to being her happy normal self. That is great.

Cheers, Agneta X

Fars dag
Father's day

Igar var det fars dag har i Australien. Vi firade forst hemma hos oss genom att ata pannkakor, bar, sylt, farska jordgubbar och yoghurt till frukost. Mums. Greg var nojd over sin farsdags present. Layla hade kopt (hon ar sa generos) en sladdlos skruvdragare. Sedan firade vi hemma hos Gregs foraldrar med slakten. Vi at en mumsig lunch och tarta. Gregs pappa var ocksa nojd over sin present, olglas och japanska ol. Layla bjod pa forkylning ocksa. Idag har hon varit riktigt gnallig och vill helst av allt bli buren hela tiden. Pust.

Den har veckan har jag annars fullt upp att fixa allt infor Laylas fodelsedag pa lordag. Det kommer narmare 50 personer pa hennes fest som vi ska ha i en park. Jag har sa smatt satt igang med bakandes. Tur att Greg vill baka tartan. Jag ar saaaa glad att slippa gora den. Kan dock knappt fatta att hon snart fyller 1 ar. Tiden har flugit forbi mest for att det har varit sa himla roligt.

Ha en bra vecka. Kramar, Agneta

We celebrated Father's day by eating a yummy pancake breakfast. Greg was happy (well that is what he said anyway even though he had asked for the new Playstation) with his cordless drill that Layla had bought him (she is so generous). We later had lunch with Greg's family over at his parent's place. Greg's dad seemed happy over his new beer glasses and Japaneese beers that we had bought him. Layla was a bit sniffly yesterday but today she has really been under the weather. She would prefer if I carried her around all day when she is feeling unwell. Fingers crossed, she will feel better tomorrow.

Otherwise I am busy this week getting things sorted for Layla's birthday on Saturday. We have over 5o people coming to help us celebrate. We will have morning tea in a park nearby which should be fun. I still can't believe that she will be 1. Time has flown by and it has been so much fun.

Have a good week. Cheers, Agneta

Hon tog manga fler steg 5 minuter innan men da hade jag riktat kameran fel och man sag bara en arm fladdra forbi. Tusan ocksa!

She took many more steps 5 minutes previous to this but then I didn't have the right camera angle and only caught an arm on film. Bugger!

De har filmerna filmade jag nar vi kom tillbaka fran Sverige. Tyvarr holl jag min kamera fel sa de ar pa sidan men de ar sevarda anda. Layla var saaaa trott.

I filmed these when we just got back from Sweden. Unfortunately I held the camera wrong so they are sideways but they are worth watching anyway. They are pretty funny. Layla was soooo tired.
