What is that thing called love?

Thursday is library day at Billanook, a favourite for Holly. She loves to pick her new book out each week and bring it home and read it in bed that night.  Today she came home with a book titled 'What is that thing called love?'.
While I was waiting for Holly and Harry to settle down in bed so I could begin reading, I said to them "What does love mean?" The answers were priceless and perfect ...

Holly: "Its when you're really really really really really really (x20) best friends with someone" So true and honest, I love it!

Harry: "it 50, 250 hundred thousand love hearts" agghh!

Are they not the most gorgeous definitions of love by a 5 and almost 3 year old?

Dinner at the Pub on Friday night wtih friends - a face painter arrived!

Ready Steady Go!

 Harry had his first lesson at Ready Steady Go on Wednesday.  It is an indoor sports program that focuses on a different sport each week.  We were lucky enough to secure a spot in the 3-4 year old group (so I could look after Lucy and not go in with him) and he was a little star!  He listened intently to every word his teacher (Dawn) said and followed all instructions perfectly.  He loved it! They did soccer and he had a ball!

The adventures of Teddy Blue

 Teddy blue is a firm fixture here at ourfamilyfreeman.  Harry is totally in love with him, and he tells him that quite regularly! He kisses him and talks to him and if I ask Harry to do something through Teddy Blue, it is guaranteed to be done quick as a flash!

This is just an insight of Teddy Blue trailing along on a recent walk to the park ...

Teddy Blue had a go at everything that Harry did. He was so tired by the end, Harry even attached Bella's lead and dragged him home!!! 

Face painting at the Knox Festival

 On Sunday we ventured off to the Knox Festival, we were lucky enough to dodge the rain, and we ended up staying all afternoon.  Holly and Harry had their faces painted - Harry wanted to be a cat but came out with this gorgeous dog face!!! He looked so funny!  I think his cheeky little personality made it all the more funnier!

On a side note, Harry loves going to kindy, he has quite a few friends down there too, the lastest name that we hear all the time is Velvet. Except Harry can't pronounce it properly and calls her Belbet! Its way too cute. Yesterday Holly and I had a girls day and we went down to pick him up, Harry ran up and grabbed Hollys hand and said "Hollly this is Belvet, and Belvet this is Holly!" WAY too cute and I could have just crushed all three of the with love!

Harry asleep on the floor

 Last week when Nanny was here, I went in to check on Harry about an hour after he went to bed and this is how I found him! He had put his ugg boots on, started reading a book and ended up like this!

Daddy experiments with Brylcreem on Harrys mop of hair!

Giggling Harry

Harry and the hairdryer!

Daddy thought it would be fun to dry my hair with the hairdryer - he didn't think it would be this much fun though!!!

Holly looks so big in this photo?

Dress ups

Just like his big sister (and just like his Mum) Harry still loves to dress up. This is one of Hollys birthday presents we gave her, and they both love it!

The Boys

Our little boys watching over the ocean

A change of scenery ...

Tonight Mamma thought a change of routine would do us all good. And boy, was she right, this was the most fun we have had getting clean in ages (apart from our bath on the deck a few weeks ago!)

I am considering doing this more often, there was less mess, and much easier on my back!
