Harry's 3rd Birthday party

 Harry's party this year was kept pretty simple.  We had a little party at home, he was pretty excited though to invite 5 or 6 of his kindy friends.  It was very cute to see them all playing together outside of kindy.  We had a big jumping castle on the deck and a pinyata, and of course the cake ... a farm cake, as chosen by Harry.

 Aunty Katies possible 4th daughter!

Falling asleep at the dinner table

And she woke up 20 mins later like nothing had happened and kept chewing on the rusk!

7 months

 Lucy was 7 months old last week. 

She is becoming so much more interactive now. She rolls around on the floor. I know she goes both ways, however I rarely catch her going tummy to back!  She flips in bed and will happily sleep on her tummy now. I'm touching wood whilst writing this, but she is sleeping 13 hours straight a night ... fingers crossed it stays that way. She doesn't sleep as much during the day - 2 sleeps of 1-2 hours each.

She is starting to get better at eating, although she still isn't overly keen.

She is big and beautiful and  has one gorgeous tooth that popped up the day before she turned 7 months! Very cute. 

Just a doll and a very easy going bubba.

Love you Luce xx

My 80's chick

 My beautiful girl has been listening to too much 80's music - she insisted on wearing a sweat band made of crepe paper the other day!

Happy 3rd Birthday Harry

 Happy Birthday Harry xx

You are the most beautiful, funny, charismatic, sweet, charming, loyal and loving little boy we have ever known. Please don't ever change. 

We love you to the moon and back.

Visitors last month ...

 Yes this is a very late post, Nanny and Pa dropped in for a very fleeting visit at the end of last month. They dropped G.G off at our house for a whole week. It was so nice to spend a week with our great Grandma xx

 G.G - 85 and still going strong xx

Friday Funny

This morning on the drive to school Lulu started grizzling. Lucy loves being sang to and the last few days when I have started singing to her in the car, she immediately stops crying.  I said to Holly;

Mummy: "Watch this Hol, she stops crying when I sing this song to her"
              "You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy"
Holly:      "Mum she is not your son?"
Mummy:  "That's right? Why did you say that?"
Holly:      "You should be singing - You are my daughter-shine!!"

It took me a second to realize what she was saying, It was a great funny to start the day!

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?

A few more from Aunty Pol ...
