Now that JoJo and PaPa live only 400m away there were lots of trips to the beach this Christmas. Keeping Lily OUT of the water is the hard part. Constant squeals of delight as the waves crashed around her!
The local shopping centre had a free Santa. So Lily and I grabbed the little camera and went for a visit. 2 metres away was as close as we got. Maybe next year she'll stand next to him!
This year the Christmas tree was fairly simple as Lily has a fascination with "bubbles" on trees and wrapping on paper. She is nearly to big for the santa bag now, and no where near as co-operative as last year!!
Although many methods have been tried to stop Lily pouring her water out,it continues. The latest is to tip it into a cup which would not be a problem if said cup wasn't actually a block with holes in it...
Lily and I have started a Journal called '365 make something everyday'. So each day at least one of us has to make something; not as easy as it sounds but we sure are having fun! Bunnings is helping out with their free kids craft days; craft, a play on the playground AND shopping all in one.

Lil loves drawing on the blackboard (and sometimes the floor...) Mostly she is right-handed but sometimes one hand just doesn't get the job done!
A week of dancing and playing with our younger cousin Chloe. Now that Chloe has gone home, Lily keeps looking for her, she liked having a constant playmate; even if she did play with "her" toys.
If you look really closely you can see the creases in her face that are the huge grin and squeal of delight that followed the goat finishing the food on her hand.
