Insert witty title here...

Welcome to November! We've been enjoying(!) the spring weather - some gorgeous calm, sunny days interspersed with some gale force winds and driving rain. Nice! The garden appreciates the rain though...

Josh is very proud of the crop of gorgeous bronze irises that have come up this year.
Duplo continues to be a favourite past time in our house, with the games becoming more and more elaborate. The Duplo figures are gradually being named. So far we have Iris, Phoebe and Arlo and a few other yet to be named fellows. The Duplo family visit farms and houses and also seem to bit a bit naughty as they are often sent to time out or to bed.

Phoebe helps Arlo prepare for another adventure.

Iris shows off her best ever tower - they get taller as she gets taller!

A Campbell pile up.

The latest in spring fashions in Titahi Bay. Note the stunning combination of blue socks and pick sandals and the pom pom hat which really sets off the tiger face.

Hard at work on a cutting review of the latest edition of that great New Zealand institution.

Who says tigers don't have pink stripes?

Hey Lily, want to play derplo? (Phoebe's alternative pronounciation).

Iris has discovered the art of making funny faces. We haven't told her that scary story about the wind changing...

And finally, Lily is pleased to announce that she is a big girl who eats real food now.
Yum, pears and baby rice...More please!
Stuffed!
