Ben


Our oldest son is nearly 4 and has come a long way in the last 6 - 8 months. At 3 he wasn't really saying much, but now he has such a huge vocabulary that he can talk to you about anything.

He has also grasped the concept of dressing himself in the last few weeks, and even though it can be a little slow, all items of clothing now get put on with ease.

He is remembering things now as well, understands when we say maybe later, because later he will remind you. Likes us to tell him when things are going to happen because he is slowly grasping the time concept, which is a good thing but can also back fire on us.

The Zoo

Our family still really enjoys a good day out at the zoo.
These birds are so colourful
Ben and Alex just love this place, they know where they want to go and what they want to see.
They both love the giraffes, and have had the pleasure of feeding them.

Alex

Our youngest has just started coming out with so much to say. His favorite thing at the moment is to tell us "Me do it" He wants to help with anything and everything, and he wants to do it on his own.
Guess with him turning 2 in a couple of weeks, it is to be expected. Although he is still the baby, although he had a hair cut yesterday and he really looks like a little boy now, no more baby!
Oh and did I mention that he likes chocolate ice cream?

Mother's Day

Today in New Zealand is Mother's Day.
My lovely family gave me lots of hugs and kisses and 2 CD's, and the biggest box of chocolates!
Here are the cool men in my life.
