Surf



27 and 28 December 2011
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!

Christmas

Decorating the tree - the top or "adult half" with the pretty breakable decorations; the bottom left to the kids and the plastic "bubbles"

Got to get all the way to the bottom of the sack!

 Christmas isn't Christmas with cuddles and jumping on PaPa

Lots of good toys to play with.  Now to find them all homes.

Santa


22 December 2011
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!

In the Santa bag

15 December 2011
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!!

Water bottle mischef




7 December 2011
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...

Aldi's Christmas Scene activity pack

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.

While watering the new vegie patch; Lily decided she needed watering too.  She ran from one side of the yard to the other chasing the water.

Drawing


October 2011
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!

Shoes



October 2011
Shoes are almost as much fun as hats are; these ones however were just a little big.


Playing with Chloe



October 2011

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.

No matter what we are playing, whether it's with Daddy or the dolls; everybody has to wear a hat!

What a big Week


September 30 2011
After a big week playing with animals, having lunch with friends and welcoming back PaPa and JoJo; staying awake is just to hard.

Lunch


September 2011
There's nothing quite like buttered toast that has come off someone else's plate.

Baby Animals

Feeding the Goats and Lambs


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.

Hmmm

Let me think about it for a bit;
