Playgroup Fun

Nana came with us to playgroup this week and, while Lucy was practising her drumming, I helped Nana make a pretty bird to hang on my window. It was great fun.



There was also a face painter at playgroup. I amazed Mummy and sat still for long enough to have Thomas (what else?) painted on my face. Lucy got a flower. Aren't we cute!

More bath fun

Bathtime remains a favourite time of the day for J&L. Lucy is very slowly learning the "if you stand up then you get out" rule and that is how bathtime usually ends for her! Jack is still mad keen on making long funny words and is trying to teach Lucy how to read...

Happy Fathers Day Daddy

We gave Daddy our hand prints for fathers day - what good messy fun that was!!



And we had a fun brunch with Ryan, Jemma, Harry, Josie and Audrey and their Mummys and Daddys. Thanks Sarah and Andy.



Lucy loved the mushrooms best of all (although not looking too happy in this photo because she had just taken a tumble!)

See Saw Time

Lucy is pretty good at keeping her balance on the see-saw but likes a cuddle from Jack all the same!

Where's the ignition?

Waiting for the bath to fill up

It's great to have a big bath to splash in but it does takes ages to fill...



good tummy Lucy!

A trip to the zoo

The last day of winter was a gorgeous day and so Lucy and I went to the zoo with Nana, Grandad, Mummy and Daddy. The animals were in fine form - as well as all the usual crowd we saw three tiger cubs and the hippos were out of the mud!



Yes Jack, the elephant does have a penis...



Psst Daddy is this what a trout looks like???

who needs toys...

when there is a remote and carpet fluff!!

Jack's party trick

Skidding down the slopes with daddy

I put a necklace round my neck...

round my neck, round my neck, I put a necklace round my neck and look in the miror to see it - just in case you need a translation!. This is one of jack's favourite songs - I think because he likes to look at hiomself in the mirror!

Our winter holiday - Taupo

I was so exicted when I got to Taupo that I forgot to sleep in - my memory is really bad when it comes to remembering to do that!! Anyhow at least Mum and Dad got to enjoy a nice sunrise...



And it also meant we got to the pools nice and early, in fact we were the first people in the pool and had the slides all to ourselves.




Dad went out fishing one afternoon and Mum took me and Lucy to feed the ducks. Mum gave Lucy a card to play with but Lucy thought that the bread I was feeding the ducks was for her and nabbed a piece. She got a bit of a shock when the duck took it straight out of her fingers...



Thankfully the ducks couldn't reach Lucy's fingers on the swings!
