Moving Day

It is always quite harrowing to see all your personal belongings loaded on a truck/container/boat and sent off.....will they get to the other end? For the first time ever Chris and I were in full charge of our belongings and their well-being (it made us appreciate the assistance we'd had in the past) and they all arrived with minimal disturbance. Yay!

These two were nothing short of perfect when the day came - Hector gave some instruction and kept himself hydrated with an array of purchased treats not usually offered to him while Florence displayed her endless patience with everyone and everything.

said treat....

and here are my two babies enjoying their first meal on the kitchen floor - it consisted to canned spagetti canned beetroot and a few scraps of dry bread - they were loving it!
Watch out Buttercup we have arrived!

Isn't Hector the American??

I found Florence like this the other night (well, maybe less the book) but how much is she striking the pose of the Statue of Liberty herself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!???!?!?!?

My crawling baby!

3rd of December 2010! This is marked as they day Florence found her mobility. No stopping her now, took 3 days in the new house (with two steps) to sort out how to navigate up them...although the reverse is a different story!

Sato's Sushi

My dear friend Sato taught me how to make authentic japanese sushi the other day - YUM - thanks Sato! Needless to say it didn't hang around for long!

Trinity, Issei and Hector needed lots of nourishment for the intense play that went on after lunch!

Zoo Crawlies!

My kiddies and I went to the zoo today. We wagged kindy (very naughty) and learnt all sorts of fun things during our outing. And even though F had the tiniest power sleep ever while we were there she was still able to manage this stella crawling effort when we got home.

How cute is this! Good snap mama!

Playing catch up again

The kids and I met Jennie, Greg and Rocco down at Little Shoal for a bbq - we love summer!

The first day we've really been able to hang out in the backyard.

Saturday afternoon at Birkenhead Wharf

Here, fishy, fishy, fishy....

This one is a classic, Hector rarking things up while poor wee Florence gets all stressed out in the back ground. Her first two teeth broke through shortly after this day.
