Reading books on a lazy Tuesday...
Two perfect little angels.


28 November 2011


Playing with the giant tent that Din puts up in the backyard!!

And doing hilarious "sticky sticky" all over his funny sunnies :)




27 November 2011


Fun morning at the beach
With picnic lunch and "funny sunnies"!

Later, we see in the dusk at Malabar
With yummy chicken, playground and scooters.

Matai is not too happy about having to share Daddy's affections with Max!

But later, with the help of a bubble machine, lots of cars and blocks,
He chirps up enough to have lots of fun with his friends
And more importantly, chocolate cake!




25 November 2011


A rainy week
Of playing cubbies with the lounge...


24 November 2011


"Would I like tunnels?
Are you crazy?"
says Matai.
"I can feed myself!"



23 November 2011


Rainy week.
Lots and lots of craft
And television...


22 November 2011


Helping Nanny hand out the clothes
And resisting the temptation to snap all the pegs!


21 November 2011


The special look Matai reserves
For whenever Rose is doing something
That he wishes he was doing.


20 November 2011


Matai loves the giant waterside jumping castle at Tomas's house
But is a little bit scared about the water, and so stays clung to Papa.


19 November 2011


Cupcakes at Ollie's first birthday party;
And a super-exciting Toucan on top of his cake!



18 November 2011


Matai has finally learnt how
To climb the washing machine to get into the bath.


17 November 2011


For the last two nights, Tai has snuck into Miro's bed
When Mummy and Daddy have said he can't come into theirs.
Both brothers being found cutely sharing the pillow
And snuggled up together come morning-time.

As a result, through the day, the boys are intensely best friends
And spend it roaring like dinosaurs, wrestling like monsters,
Tai copying everything Miro says,
And laughing together like silly billies!


16 November 2011


Cooking a banoffie pie,
The boys in their usual position
When anything edible is being done in the kitchen.


15 November 2011


Matai is forever handing a book to someone
And asking that they read it to him.

Today, Din wants cuddles,
And so the two of them are happy !


14 November 2011


First taste of Christmas Cake...
Nanny's first one of the season.
A very warm reception !


13 November 2011


Cheeky no-pants sneaking up the giant slide steps
Lightning McQueen in hand.


12 November 2011


A day of wonders at Cockatoo Island...

Funny face on the ferry trip over!

Astonishment at Papa's living art (and exuberance in the heat!)
And all smiles at the craft and colourful canvases.





11 November 2011


Choccie mouth, nudey boy
Running on the grass and coveting apricots;
Squealing and finding tigers;
Wanting lap cuddle after lap cuddle
When there's only an inch to sit on...


10 November 2011


A glorious morning playing with all the activities
At Miro's new Pre-school...

Followed by Reuben, lazy hammock boating,
And a picnic dinner by the Harbour
With lots of sandy fun!
