Matai is in his own little heaven
When we visit the farm
And the "animul" whisperer
Gets to place his palm on goats, sheep, kangaroos and more...
But emus that eat all the food
As well as the bag besides
Are a little more strange than expected!

After Tai slips under the water
He and Mummy both need cuddles
Before they can feel better.
But after, with Papa tickles
And a bit of sandcastle
All is sunshiny days!
27 October 2011
Naughty chubby fingers
Sneaking strawberries before they ripen
In our flourishing vegetable patch.
25 October 2011
Copious koala cuddles in the Svedish room...
Contrasted with ~
Trying to dress a desperately wiggly,
Bump-kicking, screaming Matai !
23 October 2011
Tai loves his Wiggles stickers
In the showbag Linda bought him at the Avon party.
The only trick is using them all before Miro does!
21 October 2011
Tai's usual favourite activity -
Climbing all over a very sensitive double-brother bump
While Mummy tries to relax on the hammock !
Afterwards, as summer starts breathing sweet heat into the air,
There's fun in the clam shell with big brother Miro
And at the beach, where Tai becomes thoughtful, watching other kids
And snuggling for sandy cuddles, where Mummy can stroke
The tender skin of his neck, and wisps of his baby hair.
19 October 2011
While Mummy and Nanny go shopping,
Tai falls asleep in Din's arms
For one and a half hours.
Achy breaky back !
18 October 2011
Dinnered, bathed and fresh pyjama-d
The boys settle down for bed time
With beloved Charlie and Lola.
16 October 2011
While Miro is always kissing his little brothers tenderly,
Matai is more of the rough love variety
And pushes his face like a magic pudding
Into the kicking twins.
Later, he shares some chocolate with Nanna.
No lunch, only chocolate !
12 October 2011
With Granny and new special friend Pop
Restorer of bicycles and creator of kiddie 3 wheel dreams...
11 October 2011
Waiting impatiently at the gate at Nanny and Din's !
Where in the kitchen,
Tai loves turning the rabbit basket
Into a French military service cap.
Later there's even more fun
Hanging out with the gang !
Archie and Rose,
And cheeky se cache Miro
10 October 2011
Another first!
Today, Matai stays on the swing
Instead of eying it off, then panicking when he is put on it,
And can't wipe the smile from his face
As Miro and Din push him in the garden.
Before and after, however, there is much
Sibling jostling and screaming
For every toy in the backyard,
And most coveted of all, Din's lap.
It's just one of those days where we wish for earplugs !
9 October 2011
For the first time ever
Tai is surrounded by kids around his age
At Mummy's uni reunion
And enjoys playing cars with them,
Eating cake and hammock swings!
8 October 2011
Pushing chairs into the kitchen has become a hobby...
Where it can be used for the purposes of good
(Washing hands, washing fruit)
Or evil
(Everything else!)
5 October 2011
Playtime with Archie and Rose at the park,
With Nanna and Smarties, sandwiches and biscuits,
And lots and lots of little pieces of bark to make a mess with!
4 October 2011
Sitting amongst the flowers in the sunshiny garden,
Tai wants cuddles and cuddles only.
2 October 2011
Tai has lately been
One for copious Mummy-cuddles;
Kisses on request, and whinges if he doesn't get them.
See how happy he is when we comply!
30 September 2011
Matai with the face mask we made at the Children's Festival,
Right before he picked off all the flowers!
