Playing dress-ups - Phoebe described herself as a "monster fairy".And below, Iris shows how a simple change in hats can transform an outfit...
Today's the day the teddy bears have their picnic.Rimutaka Forest Park
We enjoyed a lovely hot day in the Catchpool Valley, in the Rimutaka Forest Park. We arrived early afternoon and by 4pm, as we were starting to think about lighting the portable BBQ, we had the place to ourselves. The girls enjoyed some "mountain-biking", some tennis, some rugby, a swim in the river and a delicious BBQ.
Lily's first ice cream. We don't think she liked it...
Iris wave-jumping with Josh and Ruthie.Welcome Ryan Robert!
Scott, Haidee and Gabriella welcomed Ryan Robert to the world on 19th January. 8 pounds, 4 ounces of very cute wee boy! Well done Haidee.
The railroads get longer and longer and now often traverse the girls' room, the hallway and into the lounge!
On the beach with Patrick, the younger brother of Skye, one of Iris' kindy friends. He and Lily are great mates.
Three girls enjoying their time in Taupo.
Iris and Brandon out for lunch in Taupo.
The one and only picture we took in Tauranga - Iris and Phoebe enjoying dinner at Ro's restaurant. Despite the lack of pictures, we had a lovely time with Rosaleen and Kate- some nice walks, a good evening with lots of talk and a little too much wine(!) and a great lunch on the Strand.
Iris is trying to teach Lily to walk! We'll be happier if she crawls first...
Phoebe and Granmarg on the tram at Paekakariki.Fire, fire, fire!
We had a visit from the Porirua Fire Brigade at playgroup this Wednesday. The kids learnt how to "get out, stay out, welldone!" and how to shout "fire, fire, fire" if they spot one. They also got to check out the fire engine and squirt the fire hose.
Although she doesn't look too sure here, Phoebe rang Granmarg that night to tell her all about the exciting morning.
