Day 4

Today Mummy very kindly decided that Harry wouldn't go to kindly and spend the day with Dad, thanks Mum!

We packed some lunch headed to watch Holly at Gymnastics. We were a little early to we stopped at a nearby park for a picnic. Dad was very lucky as we are not normally allowed to have our parents watch but today was open day, so Dad, Harry and Lucy stayed to watch. What an awesome little gymnast.

After gymnastics and Lucy's sleep we had a walk and another play at the park. When we got we all made 'Pumpkin Soup - the best you ever tasted'!

A sunny, but very cold Sunday

 Sunday at Kew boathouse. A family picnic in the park. Despite the sun it was absolutely freezing!

 Happy birthday Piper!! (and of course Indie!!)

 Lots of Aunty lovin!

Lulu is definitely spoilt at family functions now - she is the only baby!

Nanny and Pa visit

Nanny and Pa flew down just for Harry's party ... How lucky is he! Thanks Nanny and Pa!

(even with Pa's bung shoulder 2 weeks after his shoulder reconstruction!)

The Vicos come to Melbourne!

 We had been counting down the day until The Vicos came to town - They finally made it! It has been one year since I saw my sister! They stayed with us for a whole week and experienced the chaotic life of 3 kids! It wouldn't surprise me if Filippo has already booked himself in for "the snip" ha ha ha!

We had such a lovely week hanging out, just doing the everyday things - it was perfect. Marley is a little spunk and the kids all had a ball together. We are now counting down the days until "the BIG wedding" in September, where we will see everyone again.

Seestas night out!!!

Pol, Filippo and Marley joined us for the week last week. Hectic it was - but we wouldn't want it any other way! The kids all had a ball together and really enjoyed watching the dynamics between the three of them. 

We were lucky enough to escape on Thursday night - the 4 of us dined at the Press Club for a truly spectacular mean.

More photos to follow soon xx

Out and about

 We forgot the car was being serviced on Monday, so at 9.30 when we remembered, it was a mad dash to pile everyone into the car.  Holly and Harry were in the middle of playing pirates, which they continued to play in the car! No time to get dressed!

Gorgeous Dani - 21 yesterday xx

A birthday well celebrated!

Holly was well and truly spoilt rotten this year. Nanny and Pa and Aunty Pol and Marley have all just left us and gone home. We had a jam packed few days and lots of fun. We miss you all already xx
Taking birthday calls.

Yesterday the four of us piled in the car for a BIG girls day out to see .... MARY POPPINS!!!

It was so much fun, we had a quick bite to eat at the cellar bar, then walked around to Her Majestys Theatre. The show was amazing. The sets were unlike no other, it was a great show (My sister and I have decided we want to star in musicals - despite our complete lack of singing and dancing skills!) Holly loved it - especially when Mary Poppins flew over the audience! She lasted really well until about the last 15 minutes when she got very restless (it was a 3 hour show!).

By the way we are all rugged up and it was slightly cold (freezing according to the Queenslanders) however today it was so hot the air conditioner went on!

A visit from G G

GG spent the week with us last week
we don't get to see her all that often, so we squeezed in as many snuggles as possible.
