More Flowers!


Some pictures of Chloe after we collected some jonquils from our garden...she was in charge of carrying them and kept pointing them out and saying 'more flowers!' She then helped to put them in a vase, I gave her the first stem for her to put in and she put it in upside down and she swished it around!

Plaster's Nearly Finished!


A quick update, our plaster is in the process of being 'stopped' up so we are just about ready to begin painting!! Yay!! Paint is ready to go and Nicholas' new room is first on the agenda...a bit of a disagreement with Nicholas wanting a red room as it is his favourite colour however I want it to be green..I sweetened him up by telling him we would buy some 'red' things for his room...! Top pic is of Nicholas's room and the other is our rumpus area...

Happy Birthday Dad!


Happy birthday to my dad who turned 58 on Sunday...just before we blew out the candles on our birthday cake...how impressed do the kids look? Mind you, they all came down with colds the next day!!

Love Is In The Air

Big congratulations to Matt's dad Mick and to his new wife Julie. They tied the knot Saturday 12th in front of their family and close friends. Nicholas was page boy and looked very dashing in his suit along and Julie looked just lovely in her dress...Nicholas, Jamie and Chloe all dressed up ready for a big night of partying!!

Big Girl's Bed


Yes, Chloe has made the move in to her 'big girl's bed.' She absolutely loves it! Her first comment after seeing it put together? 'Ooh...jumping, jumping!' Hmmm...I think not!

A Hard Day's Night....



Poor Chloe, she must have really been a bit tuckered out to fall asleep like this..!

Happy Birthday to Me!



Yes, I finally hit the big 3-4 on Thursday...bit of a quiet day really...pilates in the morning and a lazy day for the remainder of the day! Nicholas was quiet insistent that my birthday cake HAD to be a carrot cake (?) ...I think he has been watching too much 'Peppa Pig!' After one bite he promptly said it was yuck while Chloe and Jamie happily ate theirs with Jamie proclaiming it was now his favourite! Nicholas helped make the actual cake while Chloe had her first turn in the kitchen and helped with the icing...yum!
