It's all about Iris

Since we're playing catch up, I'll do a post for each Campbell girl, starting with Little Miss Kindy (aka the "big girl"). Iris is definitely a "kid" now, as opposed to a toddler. She's been going to kindy this term and to say she loves it would be a huge understatement. She never stops talking, meaning life in the Campbell household now has a constant running commentary (with an echo, thanks to Phoebe!) Iris' current favourite things are swimming, "ammals" (animals of any kind), yellow, riding her bike, Duplo, hassling Phoebe, cuddling Lily and stories (reading and listening). Still to come - pictures of Iris' new haircut.

First day at kindy!

The birthday Duplo - a "leece" car!

Iris and Phoebe under the amazing quilt Iris got for her birthday from her Great Aunt Maureen. Details you can't see in the photo are the patches of fabric decorated with irises and the nursery rhymes around the edge. This is a firm favourite and gets used daily, on her bed and on the couch for DVDs.

Our backyard gets a little muddy in winter...

Jamie and Iris, the mud monsters.

The loving big sister.

At Karori Wildlife Sanctuary with Dad. They set out with high hopes of seeing lots of exciting native birds and came home having seen two ducks! A fun day, despite the kakas, kiwis and their mates hiding.

Pre-empting Amanda's birthday cake with a play dough creation (the little blue blobs are candles).
