Alex and his best friend Grandad

Our grown up girl

Our big brave girl went and had her 4 year old injections done.

As a reward she was allowed to go to Old McDonalds for tea.

The next day she was even more grown up and went on a bus trip all the way to Auckland with kindy - her Mummy tried very hard not to worry too much!

Our bubba

Look at our big bubba. Someone found their old carry cot and loved having a play climbing in and out although I think it was more a boat or car than a bed.

The big bubba is officially weaned at 14 1/2 months and even sometimes considers sleeping through the night!

Alex 14 1/2 months

Hi, its me mischief maker.

Its very hard to get a photo of me these days as I like to chase the camera. In fact I am full of mischief full stop but I am feeling much better these days. We don't really know why, but I've gone from a child who never slept to one who takes my teddy and heads to my bedroom when I feel I need a sleep.

I'm saying lots more words like up, down, gone, ah oh, baa. brmm brmm. . I understand everything thats said to me and I can nod now instead of just shake my head.

Today Grandad came to drop something off and for the first time I even managed to say Grandad. I love my Grandad. He's even more popular than Mum, Dad or anyone. If he's around he's the only one I want to be with.

The three musketeers

This is Mackenzie and her friends Eve and Lauren. They all started day care together when they were only one and still love getting together for fun and games.
This was Eve's fourth birthday party although many of Mackenzie's friends from kindy are turning 5 and heading to school. Mackenzie can't wait to join them and plays schools all the time. She loves practising writing and is even starting to read her first words.

We're back!

Sorry its been so long since we posted any photos.

Alex got very sick and after some trips to hospital where he caught more bugs than cures he ended up sick for a month. After more trips to the specialist the docs still have no idea what's wrong with him but finally at 14 months he's starting to come right and even slept through the night for the first time ever!

On top of all this the camera has broken down, but here are some photos taken at kindy last week.
