Life around here...

Its been full steam ahead since we arrived home from holidays...

 a whirlwind in fact.

Of course it was time to go back to work...

I have been tackling some cleaning / sorting / de-cluttering around the home..

trying to squeeze in some regular exercise...

a few social engagements...

and the usual family type commitments.

So here is a peak at the cuter moments this month...

I wont bore you with washing windows...

cleaning out garages...

or rearranging family rooms.

Bella got her first wobbly tooth.... its a bottom one..

and she is KEEN as beans to get it out.

She has tried eating all the crunchy things...apples..carrots..and anything else that might increase the wobbliness.

Mummy...Daddy...Nanny..Aunty Briony and Brookey all enjoyed Bellas school concert.

I think Brookey particularly liked the Aunty Briony snuggles.

Bella was very hush hush about her performance in the lead up....it was a surprise.

We loved it... we loved her face searching the crowd for us...and we loved the swagger in her hips as she danced. Good job Bells!

Dede the brown hen became broody...so we treated her to some fertile eggs...

She sat on them like a professional...

and we were all just as excited as she was when some chickens hatched.

Nanny added some new things to the dress up box... I think the sunnies were a hit.

We have sorted through some old movies of the kids... putting them onto DVDS..

Brayden was fascinated by this one of his Dad...

it seems they 'talk the same language'

 Cant beat 'after school iceblocks' weather.

Brayden has finally got the hang of it... the first one he ate... he held the ice and sucked the stick.

Mitch and Meg have an addition to the family...

this cute little puppy named "Archie"

..as much as I wasn't thrilled at the idea of a dog...

I have to admit he is cute.
