Cousins sleepover!

 Are these not the luckiest kids in the world! Growing up closely with all these cousins! On Tuesday night we had Chilli, Mia and Amelie come and stay for the night. The all had so much fun, they were awesome, so well behaved and played beautifully together.  Here is a quick overview (in reverse!) of the 24 hours.

Gorgeous masks they made 


 An hour of craft to keep them busy in the morning

 A rock show performance on the deck ... worthy of a Grammy!

 Mia - besotted with her littlest cousin
 The fairies visited over night and left a trail of fairy dust and letter and magic stars for each of them.
In hindsight it was not the brightest idea! When one of them (not mentioning names!) woke up at the crack of dawn, he screamed the house down and made everyone get up and see what the fairies had left!  
 Watching a movie before bed
 compliments to the chef!  Peer pressure is a wonderful thing!
Dinner for 6?

Belated birthday visit from Auntee Nickee




School Holiday - wet weather indoor play!





Lulu




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!)

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.
Mummy & Daddy xx
 This was actually Monday, the day before Harry's birthday. this is what he wore to Kindy.  The hat stayed on his head all day!

 Breakfast with the birthday cup (and bowl and plate to match - only ever to be used by the birthday person!)

 A birthday celebration - dinner at home with Grandma and Pa and our beautiful God daughter - Piper


 I turned the TV on tonight, try and minimize the noise while I put Lulu to sleep. I came back 5 minutes later to find Harry like this!
