When Matai wakes from his afternoon dodo
It takes a little while for him to ask "ou Mio? ou Mio?"
But after we can give him no satisfactory answer
(He's gone to see the Muppet Movie with Ayden!)
He is consoled with the iPad... for now.

On Australia Day
Matai feels left out when Daddy
Takes only Miro to the Fishmarkets
And puts on a sad face and wants pouty cuddles with Din
Until Nanny makes it better with home-made Lamingtons...
Later on, he asks to go to the toilet
Though it's completely aspirational !
23 January 2012
Larking in the lounge room
Making a fantastical cubbyhouse
Complete with sofa and stove !
22 January 2012
In these desperate days of house arrest...
Whenever the doorbell rings
(Or even the oven sounds)
Both Matai and Miro hurtle towards the door
Yelling gleefully, "SOME-BODEEE!"
21 January 2012
A wild naked dance in the downpour...
Followed by an Undy-Man farewell to cousin Maia!
20 January 2012
Chomping a salad entree
As devious means to get greenery eaten...
And draped in a towel after bath shenanigans;
Anticipating the next entry into Archie and Rose sculduggery.
18 January 2012
After a tussle with Miro sees Tai sprawling
He recovers by blissing out on the sticker book
Received with love from the Barbieris.
17 January 2012
The proudest big brother
With the grubbiest face and hands
That he tries to smother the twins with
At every opportunity!
15 January 2012
Nanny, Din and Daney come bearing bubbles
And Bandoo and Dane start wanding, winding brightness
Around the green garden...
14 January 2012
Tai, in his current signature look
Of his home-made tie-dyed tee
Begs for rhubarb cake at our backyard BBQ...
And gets it ! Mmmm....
12 January 2012
Tai loses his cherished Chuggington
Down a tiny crack and then under the spidery house
But magnificent Papa whisks out the Makita
And has it back in a flash. Bravo !
11 January 2012
Little wild garden boy
Runs barefoot, streaked with breakfast,
Layering three pairs of Miro's undies
With his only two Chuggington pyjama tops
Until they are wilfully thrown off
At the prospect of a sprinkler or a bath.
10 January 2012
Farewell, sweet voiture!
The family says au revoir to our family car
To make space for the minibus.
7 January 2012
Cherished time on the sofa, cuddling Lowan...
And playing with stickers in the garden with Mamiedou!
6 January 2012
Mummy's birthday lunch at 3 Weeds!
Running round hand in hand with Miro
And receiving a bit of rough big brother love!
5 January 2012
The boys always ask to cuddle the babies...
And Tai asks Mummy and Daddy too,
Several times a day, taking our hand,
Leading us to the lounge, and asking for a "cadeau" :)
4 January 2012
Mummy's birthday lunch at Nanny and Din's !
Icecream cake, and the thrill of running
Nudey boy through the sprinkler,
Playing with the hairycopter, and tripping over
Everything imaginable! Cala-Matai!
3 January 2012
Gorgeous boy
Uses the hammock as a towel
Every time he happens to get wet
(Despite his studious avoidance!)
While playing under the sprinkler with Miro.
2 January 2012
Cheeky Chubbington
Has lunch in the garden,
Sneaks into Din's beautiful veggie netting,
And falls asleep in the afternoon on Miro's shoulder.
Waking up is a little hard to do
But luckily there is LMFAO to help him through it!
1 January 2012
Tai is mostly scared of water
But loves crawling beside the jets
And squealing as though he's in them!
31 December 2011
A relaxing New Years' Eve in the garden
Where the whole family are utterly spoilt
By the lovely Stevee and Lucee.
Later, as the sun goes down,
Archie and Rose join in the fun
And all the littlies see in the New Year
With Daddy as DJ B,
Dancing on tabletops to Matai's favourite song.
30 December 2011
Cheeky Matai
Loves to hear the word "No",
Particularly as it pertains to the fridge...
And the 5+ yoghurts he already ate in a 2 hour period
While Bandoo was manning the fort !
29 December 2011
At our first family outing with the twins
For Mummy and Papa's wedding anniversary
We visit the Bowling Club, where Miro and Tai
Play silly with the serviettes, and show off
For crazy big boys outside.
