Our very precious baby...

How cute is our baby brother or sister? The Doctor says it only has a fine amount of fair hair! He/she is growing very well and should weigh in around 7 and a half pounds or so. We are very excited...Harrison is talking to the baby and tapping some morse code through my tummy - would you believe the baby taps back LOL! Will doesnt quite understand but kisses my tummy which is very cute.

Budding Artist


Harrison was very proud of the canvas he created for the Preschool artshow - as were we! It is entitled "Bushwalking in the Rain". It was displayed in the show at the library and is now displayed in our home.

We've seen Santa!

Santaland!

Harrison, Will, Mummy and Nanny went to visit Santa at "Santaland" in the Brisbane Myer Centre. The boys boarded the Santa Train for a ride while they waited for their turn to visit Santa in his little house. They each received a special gold ticket to board the train which was punched by the conductor. After their ride they received a special Santa bag with a Santa drink, kangaroo shaped potato chips and jelly beans. Will was a little bit nervous around Santa but "tolerated" his presence! He was quite fond of the motorised Rudolph though. Harrison was right at home and happily reeled off his requests! Santa gave them each a gorgeous little teddy bear which they can hang around their necks.
A magical atmosphere...


The train is waiting at the station!
Here we come!



Big smiles!

Bubble Monsters!


Does anyone recognize these monsters??

Will's First Kindy Day!



Will was so excited to finally go off to ABC with Harrison last Wednesday. Nervous Mummy rang the centre three times during the day only to be told to relax as he was doing great! He played happily, was very confident, ate and even slept on the big boy beds! Harrison was so proud to be taking Will with him and was being most protective!

Bike Riding...





Harrison loves to go out bike riding with Daddy. Will was feeling left out...so we had to rectify that by getting this cool toddler seat. He loves it!!

At the pool...



The pool where we stay at Currumbin is really lovely... the kids had a lot of fun!

What to do on a rainy day?

We were very lucky with our weather... only two rainy days. Harrison decided this particular day was a good one for making card castles!

Putt Putt!


We all had fun playing Putt Putt golf! There were three choices of runs to play on... the water run (umm...we thought Will might think that one was for swimming!), the fun run and the jungle run... guess which one Harrison picked? Yep... the jungle run! Will found it was much more fun to throw the ball than use his putter. Harrison even got a hole in one!

At the Park...

The slide was a favourite with Will

Now who do you think did the most peddling?

Spinning around...

and around!

Seaworld!

We had a great time at Seaworld!
Harrison and Will loved everyhting there but mostly they both loved the seals. We came home armed with a soft toy seal for each of them and they both made seal noises in the car on the way home. Will makes the cutest baby seal noise so next time you see him ask "what does the seal say?"
Harrison and Daddy had fun on the flume ride.

Daddy braved the corkscrew!

The boys really loved playing in the water fountain...and we enjoyed sitting in the shade watching them. Will liked to get down and look down the holes that the water was squirting from periodically. You can imagine how many times he copped the water right in the eye!

Flying High!

Riding the Carousel

Yet more beach fun...

Sand crabs galore...

Finding them was the most fun and team work makes it even better!

Another beautiful day at the beach...











Playing at the beach...much fun was had by all!

Currumbin Rock Pools




These were lovely... harrison had fun climbing through them!

Currumbin Holiday

We have just had a terrific holiday at Currumbin Beach. I will post a few pictures each day (we have hundreds LOL) so you can see what we got up to! Josie came with us for the first few days before moving on to the next family in her Australian Au Pair experience. We hope she enjoys the rest of her stay in Australia.
Will and Josie had fun swimming.
Harrison loves digging up crabs...this one was a beauty!

Will just loves trucks so he enjoyed pushing this one all over the beach.
